Oh Deer!

*** update : visit this post at my moved blog : HERE ***

So, one day me and my sister went out for a walk in the forrest near Haarlem, but before we could actually enter the forres we stopped in out tracs,

for 2 young deer stood there grazing and relaxing in the sun.

This is one of those moment that I was super happy that I drag my camera everywhere I go, and could only sigh “Oh Deer” while snapping one photo after the other.

We followed them a bit from the field where we found them, into the forrest, where it seemed they posed for us a bit more, then they disappeared in between the trees…

 

 

 

 

 

 

one snowy morning in Elswout

It seems that sometimes I need a winter-stop and although I have been busy with some other stuff, I easily postpone my blog.

But the best remedy to start up again is to just do it!!  So hereby, although today is the first “warm” day in Holland since…. FOREVER! is a series I made on one the the first snowy days in Holland, made in the Elswout in Haarlem.

Therefore I have the greatest admiration for all those, ( photo,- food,-) bloggers out there who daily or weekly manage to produce new stuff for their readers.

So I would like to know what do you do, to keep your blog updated  or do any tips for people like me who get stuck now and then!

Thanks & Enjoy!!

 

How beautiful autumn can be

About a 10 minute cycle from my house is this beautiful estate called the Orangerie, around the estate is a forrest called Elswout, which is so beautiful, it looks like your taking a stroll through a forrest out of Lord Of The Rings!

In the last couple of weeks we’ve had quite a couple of beautiful autumn days, on some of them we  went for walks through Elswout. On one day I went by myself to photograph this beautiful area, so I can share with you, how beautiful autumn can be.

THE BEAUTIFUL DUTCH FLOWER FIELDS

In this time of year it’s great to live where I live, which is a the edge of the bollenstreek or “flower area” Tourists from all over the world make a stop here to enjoy the sight of these flower power fields and no wonder, cause on a sunny day, as it was when I drove through there, the colors are so beautiful and intense.

When you have the change to buy some of tulips or hyacinths, grab the opportunity to brighten up your house with a bit of dutch spring colors.

Update: 3 May – Since I have made it onto Freshly Pressed and this post is greatly visited, I decided to add a couple more photos 🙂

Fairy tale like sunday afternoon
