The Netherlands never seize to amaze me! Here we have the online "buienradar" (literally "storm radar") telling us in how many minutes next rain or storm is coming, very practical when you are by bike...When you have a drink with friends you may spot the funny "zonnenradar" (sunshine radar) on some beer bottles (most probably to remind the Dutch that they get sunburnt quiet easily)... and in the spring we have the "bloemenradar"-page (flower radar), showing people in pictures how many flowers are already out! So after learning and checking the flower radar on Friday I made my weekends plan:-)
Spring
has been very nice, gentle and warm with us this year, here in the low
lands! The great and sunny March invited all spring bulb flowers to come
outside the ground earlier than usual (and aslo much earlier than last
year)! Already for two weeks colourful flower carpets decorate the
famous Bollenstreek between Leiden and Amsterdam. Here are the visual
proofs of the flower-photo-tour! Enjoy the colours!
Natures renewal is wonderful to see - what an exquisite show of flowers.

A flower radar! What a brilliant idea for the land of daffodils - and other flowers! Lovely to "see" you again Jana.
ReplyDeleteHello Jana,
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful shots!!
It's always enjoy at this time to see the springflower fields in Holland. Well done!!
Greetings, Marco
Beautiful pictures!
ReplyDeleteHi Jana - I love the spring - I love your photos. We are still waiting on seeing the first flower of spring this way as we still have lots of snow. The deer have come out of the woods and are hunting for food - the snow is still very deep in the woods and it pleases me to see the many yearlings that made it through the winter. Your exquisite show of flowers in majestic colour just takes ones breath away. Have a wonderful day :)
ReplyDeleteZo kleurrijk mooi, Jana !
ReplyDeleteLie(f)s.
Flowers are a nice topic for photography. Really something for you.
ReplyDeleteGreetings,

I can't stop reveling at all the colors!!!
ReplyDeleteAng flower radar--what a cool and practical idea! Perfect for people who want to go there and take photos. At least they won't make the unnecessary trip only to find out there aren't flowers yet :)
Hi, Jana! This is one of my images of the Netherlands. With all these colors and beauties, and blue skies, I think I know you can’t be but cheerful. The fifth macro is terrific.

ReplyDeleteEvery year you go to Holland in this period and so you can give us these wonderful pictures. Thanks for sharing. A big hug from Italy.
