Let us have a cup of coffee by jchanders
It was a warm and quiet early-May afternoon in the little Dutch town of Ravenstein, and certainly it was a good moment for a cup of coffee, actually with lovely applecake and whipped cream (yes, all sins together!), at the “Stadsherberg De Keurvorst”. I am sure you would have loved to join … Ravenstein, 5th May 2008, 4.07 pm / Nikon D80, Nikkor 18-200 mm at 18 mm / F 8, 1/100, ISO 200

Kinderdijk - Forgotten Postcard by Alison Cornford-Matheson
I created this image this afternoon in attempt to combat a bout of the blahs and a lack of inspiration. Because I really liked how my last Forgotten Postcard worked out, I thought I’d try to continue the series. This image was taken back in February, on a grey day, at Kinderdijk in the Netherlands. The windmills of Kinderdijk are one of the best known Dutch tourist sites. They were placed on the list of UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites in 1997. Like me, the original image needed a bit of perking up. I hope you like the results.

"Venice of the North" by Gili Orr
Giethoorn is a village in the Dutch province of Overijssel. It is located in the municipality of Steenwijkerland, about 5 km southwest of Steenwijk. Giethoorn used to be a carfree town known in the Netherlands as “Venice of the North” or “Venice of the Netherlands”. It became famous,especially after 1958, as the Dutch film maker Bert Haanstra made his famous comedy “Fanfare” there. Therefore, Giethoorn is an internationally well-known tourist attraction in the Netherlands. In the old part of the village, there were no roads (nowadays there is a cycling path), and all transport was done by water over one of the many canals. The lakes in Giethoorn were formed by peat unearthing. (Wikipedia)
