Idyllic and relaxing. Lovely softness and beautiful composition, especially with the natural framing of those trees.

I echo your sentiments about John, he has been an inspiration and a mentor to many and his presence will be missed.

Beautiful work, thank you for sharing it

Hans, a perfect picture to wish John a more relaxing time - if you are that involved with TL then it is going to be a second job.
You did a great job Hans, with both picture and note.
Thanks

We will forgive you dear Hans...No worries! :-)

I love the framing of this photo (within the photo) of the two trees and the leaves at the top...you handled the light factor very well here.

It certainly is a peaceful setting you have captured Hans, lovely colours in those trees too.

A nice thought for Johnny.

Cheers

Hi Hans :o)
I forgive of course ... a nice view for saying John he will miss us. Hope to see him back soon.
But sometimes it's necessary to take a break, in order to come back better. Keep the pressure John !
Thanks Hans for this strong thought towards our friend.

Hoi Hans,
Da's jammer om te lezen, maar soms is een break van de treksites een hele opluchting.
Je weet het in iedergeval met een heel erg mooie foto te doen. Het zachte licht en de mooie kleuren zijn echt super. Ik vind vooral het natuurlijke frame van de twee bomen erg goed gevonden...ben erg onder de indruk. Echt een foto met een super sfeer.
Groeten,
Niek

Love the composition with the two trees to either side of the frame so tall and bold. The greens of the trees and the grass gel lovely and I love the scattering of people laying around the grounds. Well done Hans, and BTW your "poor English is much better than my Dutch!

Bonsoir Hansie,

beautiful dedicasse for our so dear friend John.
A park to come to relax there, to slacken, find there peace and the force to return one day, as soon as possible if it wishes it towards us.
I like the two tree trunks and their foliage which make a natural frame with your photography. Dark worm clearness, it's all that one can wish for our friend John.
Bisous à mon autre ami

Hi Hans,

Yes, it is a pity that John is moving away from the TL world. But good to hear he keeps on shooting and posting his shots elsewhere. I'll surely keep on watching his work.

Nice see-through between the trees. Love all the various greens, the yellow flowers and the purple-ish tree in the background. Nice compo!

Greetings, Dennis

I like how the 2 trunks contribute to the frame. The bench deliver a sentiment of relaxing well... Stop the time! Like if we were on the bench too we can see the rest of the scene. Nicely catch!

Ik ben jaloers ... wat een mooi park !
Nu ja, de foto mag er ook best wezen :
je komt binnen vanuit het " duister "
en aan de ingang zie je al waar het allemaal om draait : " take 5 "
Mooi !

Over dat al-dan-niet gebrekkig Engels zou ik me geen zorgen maken Hans.
( we kunnen elkaar een polleke geven ;-) )
Iedereen verstaat je goed !

Groetjes

Yeah, we all know what you meant. Funny, I had made the same misstake in past as well. Then I also mislabeled one of my pictures in the frame. This is a nice mood picture - the two trees framing it in perfectly to the point where the actual frame almost seems redundant.
Cheers

Hi Hans,
A very relaxed and very relaxing picture. A perfect mood created here and a wonderful composition with nice light and shade and plenty of summer colour.
Well done!
