A quiet moment


On my way to a computer expert to replace the battery in my laptop. It is hard to imagine a greater contradiction.

Sunday rest

Yesterday I took a veteran with me. A nikon d700 with, according to many, one of the worst lenses ever of nikon.The 24-120 zoom. Well, that's not so bad, although nature helps out a bit as well.

A sign on the wall

Certainly to save the insects, the municipality now has some pieces of grass no longer mowed. Hope it helps.

The N-O polder

In the middle of the polder. No tulips here.
Its not completely empty as this photo shows along the Ruttens canal not far from the photo above.

Tulip fields are advancing

Where once cows were grazing from a milk and cheese farm now stands tulip fields on just a 4 km walk from our house.
Its a first in our part of the polder and perhaps a sign that you as farmer can earn more with tulips then with cows. Still am not sure what I like more. Cows in the meadow or tulips in the fields. One for Signs, Signs here.

Export product nr 1.

Tulips to the horizon
but the weather was not very nice.
Cold, wet and windy as you can see here despite the shining sun. So we decided to come back when the circumstances are a bit better in the North East Polder.
Some tulips are already cut again for the bulbs grow.

Ruysdael landscape

I got this windmill yesterday in a speedy train to the Hague from Almere and it had also a very dirty window only to make the photograph more like a painting. One for Skywatch Friday here.

First generation

Yesterday evening I made this shot with a just bought second hand camera. The Panasonic L1, the first 4/3 camera from them with its standard Leica 14-50 lens.
Here 3 generations at home (hobby). Funny thing is the first one is a real DSLR with a mirror but it looks like a rangefinder. Everything after that not.
The size of the display also gives the IQ of the camera's away in those 10 years that these exist. Still the L1 mustn't be underestimated. For the money you pay today you can have a lot of fun and learn a lot of photography with this DSLR.
