Netherlands, Photo of the Week

Photo of the Week – Netherlands

6 Comments 30 July 2010

The land of windmills and bikes

This week I bring you a shot hot off the presses – from my current trip in Amsterdam.  I felt like this picture captured quintessential Holland quite well; windmills, beautiful clouds, bicycles, and marshland.  I took this shot while on a rest break from my own bicycle ride in the countryside near Amsterdam.  A gorgeous day to ride into the the breezy, green flatlands.

Remember – you can purchase any of my photography of course!

    GORGEOUS photo! One of my brothers lives in Amsterdam and how I love visiting him and going for bike rides along the canals. :-)

    Wow Sherry. This sky is incredible! South Africa is flooded with Dutch tourists, and I’ve made friends with a few of them. Looks like I need to pay them a visit when I’m done with my trip :)

  3. You’re right, quintessential Netherlands – love the clouds
