Photographer’s Note
Keukenhof also known as the Garden of Europe is situated near Lisse, Netherlands, and is the world's largest flower garden. According to the official website for the Keukenhof Park, there are approximately 7,000,000 (seven million) flower bulbs planted annually at the park.
The flower garden was the idea in 1949 of the then-mayor of Lisse, a small town south of Amsterdam. The idea was to have a flower exhibit where growers from all over the Netherlands and Europe could show off their hybrids which will help the Netherlands as it is the world's largest exporter of flowers. Keukenhof has been the world's largest flower garden for over fifty years.
Keukenhof is open annually from the last week of March to mid-May. The best time to view the tulips is around mid-April, depending on the weather. In 2009 Keukenhof will be open from March 19 to May 21.

Bonjour Adrian,
j'avais de suite reconnu cet androit que j'ai visité l'année dernière, il faut bien en profiter car comm tu le dis dans ta note, il n'ouvre pas longtemps.
Une atmosphère que je retrouve ici dans ces couleurs magnifiques et ces lumières tamisées sous les arbres.
All the best.
Daniel.

Hallo Adrian,
Beautiful image with an explosion of colors in the flowers of this park. The composition is harmonic and the panoramic format works very well, with a good result in the light and the visual attraction of the elements.
Nice picture.
Best regards,
Josep

Keukenhof to miejsce wyjątkowo urokliwe i pełne kwiatów. Bardzo ładnie wyglądają te kolorowe rabaty na zielonym, trawiastym tle. Myślę jednak, że zdjęcie zyskałoby, gdybyś spróbował je zrobić później, kiedy słońce nie byłoby już takie ostre; wówczas można by uniknąć przepaleń, które nieco są widoczne w dolnym, prawym rogu zdjęcia. Ale i tak, ładne zdjęcie :).
Spokojnego wieczoru :)
