What a lovely composition. I love the minimal feel here, and the group of trees on the left. Look at all those greenhouses!

Nubia from ORLANDO, United States
Nice photo,pretty,but what is it exactly?and where is Kaatsheuvel, Netherlands?
18 Dec 2008 9:47pm
@Nubia: In the back there are greenhouses, glasshouses (to grow tomatoes or other vegetables). In front of them is a hedge as protection against the wind.
Kaatsheuvel is a village in the south of the Netherlands ("Holland"), about 30 km's from Belgium.
dominik from Paris, France
Une belle composition de couleurs très graphique sous ce ciel pourtant gris... Chaques détails de cette photo sont bien utilisés pour mettre en valeur ces serres.

Marcah from Quincy, United States
Wonderful image. So much life in the foreground and so stark in the background make a very well composed image.

@Zorilla: ;-) ;-) Thanks for the humoristic comment. Bye.
@lydia: Thank you very much. Bye.
akarui from Kagoshima, Japan
Nice picture. I would cut some green grass at the bottom to simplify even more the picture.
19 Dec 2008 1:01am
@akarui: I think you're right. I placed the hedge right in the middle: that's better. (Not in the upload of course)
Thanks for your comment!
Monique from Koh Samui, Thailand
Mooi lijnenspel dat precies op de goede plek doorbroken wordt door het rijtje bomen!

Fliss from Melbourne Beach, United States
I think I need a few of those glasshouses in my backyard... then again... here in Florida, and having those will be a little TO hot for me... :)

@Fliss: Here in Holland there are a lot of glasshouses, but the climate is a little bit different from Florida, I think ;-)

Yvonne S. from Tilburg, Netherlands
Ik ben er vaak langsgereden en altijd gedacht "daar moet ik nog eens een foto maken" nu ben jij me voor!! En 's avonds als de lichten in de kassen aan zijn lijkt het me ook mooi!! Fijn weekend Alphons!!
20 Dec 2008 4:37pm
@Yvonne S.: Soms ga je ineens met andere ogen kijken. Ik heb er een paar met kassen erop. Het strakke ervan vond ik wel boeiend. En landschappen als op de Azoren of Californië hebben we hier toch niet.
(Op de BlogWatch zie ik nu weer jouw 50 cent!) Ook prettige zondag.
@NarB: Thanks for the special compliment. I love simple. Bye.
Ronnie 2¢ from London, United Kingdom

Pixim from Nice, France
Simple photograph, but or the repetition of the trees hardly stopped, we have this repetition of the greenhouses out of glass which takes over ;)
