They are beautiful flowers, I sadly was there wrong time of year for
the Tulips=(. Your photos are very fresh and lovely colours.

Which camera angle to use when taking flower shots, especially tulips, is
very much a matter of personal preference. Your preferred view, from the
side and below happens not to grab me in most cases. I also found that some
of the shots did not communicate to me a clear theme - a focal point or
symmetry. My favorite is #41 (
http://www.fotogregoir.dds.nl/bloemen/origineel/41.html
) - this is a very dramatic shot with interesting contrasts and a very
interesting pattern to the stems and flowers with the light coming through
from above. The minute I saw the thumbnail of this shot, I said to myself,
"I can't wait for the full size image to load on my slow dialup!" Very
nice!

Here's a link to two tulip pictures I took last week with a different
viewing angle;

outside my front door near Buffalo, not in Holland, sadly!- tsk

They're all nice, but you're right, that one's special.

I have wondered how to take photos of individual tulips, usually ending up
taking them from above but that is not as satisfactory as yours. Learn
something new every day.
Mind you when I was in Keukenhof in 2004 I only had a Kodak P&S with 3Mp.
These are some of the snaps I took then.
http://community.webshots.com/user/gthart and go to the Keukenhof album.
Next time I will take the dSLR and my small tripod. And tell my wife to go
sightseeing on her own.

Tulips lend themselves to a lot of interesting angles. I want to do a
vase photo this weekend if I can find some good ones around too.

Really beautiful pictures Gregoir, Holland is on my 'must visit list' next
spring.

I also like your website layout very much, do you use a commercial programme
or did you design it yourself?

Hi Steve,

Thanks for your compliments.

The first half of May is the best time to visit Holland. Flowers and flowers
everywhere.

My website is my own design.

Best regards,

Gregoir

If you go to Holland try and be sure to see Keukenhof in the spring. It
is absolutely spectacular. People come from all over the world to see
it. Here's a link with some information about it:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keukenhof

Here's another link with a slide show:

We lived in The Netherlands almost five years and we never missed seeing
Keukenhof each spring.

Regards...
