Waves on breakwater of small port Moerdijk on river Hollands Diep in the Netherlands.

Industrial river Hollands Diep (1.5 km wide) in the Netherlands on summer day.  Recorded on stone breakwater. Small waves on 10m. The far hum and noise of shipping and  Moerdijk industry in the distance.

The church bell. The deep engine sound of large barges. A single plane. Distant voices. Sometimes birds flying over and swimming by. #8:40 a boat sails into the small harbour. #16:20 A car drives onto the breakwater and the man walks around.
