Corona times give another dimension to life, and the need to take regular stay-cations, or do things differently. In this case working with my hand instead of working with my head.

Afterglow
The Netherlands, Voorhout – May 2020
The theme for the weekly Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #97 is ‘pastimes’.
Normally the bulb fields attract tourists in the Spring. The colours are always fantastic to see. Let alone the smell. In The Netherlands we are in an intelligent lockdown since March 12th. To prevent people from flocking into the bulb fields the growers decided to chop the heads sooner than normal. After all the bulbs that are on the field are meant to be sold, you can order them online from August. The flowers are taking too much strength out of the bulbs, that is why they are chopped off after flowering. Last weekend we spotted two fields still in bloom, and decided to have a closer look on a bicycle ride. This is what we found.
If you want to see flowers in bloom just check out the archives of flowers and Voorhout.

Tulips 6 and a virtual visit to the Keukenhof
The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – April 2020
The theme for the weekly Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #91 is ‘simplicity’.
A series telling the story of a vase of yellow and red tulips. Being lazy basically and trying out a new iPhone 11, I took this series, telling the story of a bunch of tulips in a vase.
Normally we would be out admiring the bulb fields in full bloom. This year we can not.
The Keukenhof (a beautiful garden with 7 million flowers in bloom) is closed as well.
On Facebook they publish videos of the garden. If you enjoy flowers it is a great place to feed on colours and bright, uplifting images of nature.
As flowers open their hearts to us, we need to open up and share our empathy to each other. Stay safe, stay healthy. Whatever the politics is, we are all in this together as mankind. We can only get through this together.
