May 31

I went for a ride to Alkmaar to see the flower bulb fields there, but they were a bit of a dissapointment.  I want a windmill behind my field of tulips. And I just couldn’t find the right one. So I drove my tiny car back to Lisse, where I decided to take some shots of a tulip field with the sky as background-the usual surroundings are rather boring metal sheds.

I played around with Lightroom, increasing the blacks which gave me rather saturated candy colors. I thing it gives the picture a nice banding effect; the cool blue and green offset with the rather warm pink flowers in the middle. I’m not too worried about the sun’s light messing up the sky in my picture. Well not really.
