Skywatch

A skywatch with a view at a gold wind vane housed on top of the bell tower of the Royal Palace in Amsterdam.

Here a closer look of the cog, a cargo saling ship that plied between the Hanseatic towns. The cog was the principal emblem in Amsterdam's former coat of arms. The wind vane is about as high as a person approximately 1.84 meters. Linking to "Skywatch Friday"
