[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I have always been fascinated by the raw,simple beauty of the land of Northern-France.
Historical home of one of the thoughest,hardest one day bicycle-races of all,the 260km"'Paris-Roubaix"".
Following the old dusty and bumby roman roads from Paris to the Belgian borders in the North in the beginning of april every year,when the weather can be extremly cold and wet.....
Nicknamed "'the hell of the north"".
I saw it all passing by from the window and in my mind...

Mooie landschapsfoto met een prachtige lucht Jan.
Dit deel van Frankrijk is schitterend; grote lichtglooiende vlaktes met hier en daar een dorp....
Heel mooi.

Groet uit Schouwen,
Adri

Hoi Jan,
Wat een prachtig plaatje weer, maar nu van Frankrijk. Maar het is dat ik het glooiende landschap zie, want ik dacht even dat het gewoon een stukje Holland was...:)

Prachtige heldere kleuren! Mooie wolkenpartij maakt het geheel af!

hi Jan

Not just you, I am impressed too with so much farm land being used in such stylish graphic patterns that really make photographers so happy.

And not just photographers, anyone who looks at the field will feel very happy too.

A good composed view of such as landscape and good colorful contrast. Well done.

tfs, bill

Hi Jan,
This photo shows rather the Eden of the north! This area seems so peaceful and quiet with this lovely village hidden in these harmonious fields ! Even the clouds seems relax! :)
Beautiful composition and colors. This bucolic landscape is really fascinating indeed! Bravo! Annie

Nice one Korbee
Beautiful saturations and contrasts here and them clouds look peaceful in this shot. Great landscape here.

Jan, a wonderful snapshot of the landscape! But according to your notes it says nothing to show the old dusty and bumby roman roads from Paris to the Belgian borders, nicknamed "the hell of the north". Other than that, great scenery photo.

Hi Jan,
You're right Jan. Such a simple landscape, but I love the three clear layers of colours, ad the sky sprinkled with clouds. Almost like a painting.
