Netherlands: Keukenhof Gardens

I spent one day in the Netherlands at Keukenhof Gardens, where the flower producers put their wares on display for about two months each spring. It was so fun. The gardens are large, and each producer gets a section to cultivate. I arrived at the gardens with a fully charged camera battery and several hours. My battery died 300 photos later. Thankfully I was just about to leave, so it was perfect timing. I had a hard time choosing pictures to share, but here's 20 of the 300.



Most of my pictures are close ups, but there are a few of them that give a better idea of the gardens.



The gardens have various pools and fountains, which I think turned out some of the best pictures.



















There are also sculptures on display in various parts of the garden.


































It was a beautiful way to spend an afternoon!
