Vijfhuizen

Sheep along the Ringvaartdijk at Vijfhuizen [Five houses] in the Haarlemmermeer polder. Took this shot last week when SunToucher joined me for a photo shoot. I like this typical Dutch scene with the still green fields and the fluffy clouds against the bue sky.

Used a CP filter here.

PP work Shot in RAW, adjusted brightness and contrast a little even like the levels and curves. Small crop and used unsharpen mask (200%, 0,3 pixels). Resized and unsharpen mask again now with 100% and 1 pixel)

Picturesque, postcard-perfect. Sharp, clean, and pleasant ... this is so good, I'd almost say it was taken on a Canon.

:)

There's something about that green-blue colour combination that wins every time, must be programmed into our subconscious!

Hi Hans,

Een zeer mooie foto. Wat mooie kleuren!
Uitzonderlijke landschap zoals je kunt ontmoeten alleen in Nederland. Gisteren kreeg ik een foto tentoongesteld in Nederland, maar in het zuiden.
Een aangename zondag,
Adrian

Bonjour Hans.
Magnifique ciel qui donne un bon relief et une bonne profondeur vers l’horizon.
Bonne journée.
Urs

Hello Hans,

A lovely, rural scene, conveying the peace and tranquilty of the countryside.
The white house is finely positioned in the frame, secure by the attention of the surrounding trees. The focus is sharp and the polariser adds a pleasing effect.


Have a good day,
Bev :-)

The best possible way to show the beauty of the Netherlands Hans.
Those typical colors,the sheep,and a brilliant looking sky,all top mate.

Hoi Hans,
Nou zit ik toch ff te kloten met mijn foto's. Ik dacht dat deze foto iets donker was, maar nadat ik net de mijne heb geupload, zie ik dat die echt donker is. Ik denk dat ik m'n monitor maar even ga kalibreren of achter m'n oren krabben.
Ik zag dat je deze foto nam en dacht toen zelf dat het echt wat was, maar nu ik het resultaat zie moet ik toegeven dat ik het fout zag. Jou snelle manier van werken geeft je toch wel meer winners dan ik had verwacht. Je oog is super getraint.
De lucht is echt prachtig en de schapen maar het een prachtige Hollandse plaat.
Groeten,
Niek

Bom dia Hans,
Calm peaceful and rigorous:
POV, perfect,
DOF idem;
Colors and lightness, perfect; and a marvelous sky.
Best regards,
Raimundo

Nice work Hansie, beautiful clouds and clarity on this! I love the blue and green in this shot, with the white house, it's wonderful! When will we see photos of Finland?

Nice rural scene with thw white house in the right place of the composition.

The contrast between the sky and the green pasture works well.

The use of the CPL is very subtle.

Excellent point of view and details,
Wanderful sky and contrast.
great composition as usual..well presented.
compliments
Michel

Your Dutch names look as bad as our Maori names!!
What a pleasant farm scene Hansie. And the 3 cows - did you position them there yourself??? No, I know you didn't.
The sky and greenery look great - very nice scene to see

Janice

PS And you and Niek had a good time - talking all the time too... ?
