Treklens: Delft during last *TL exploring Holland*
Here we see : De Oost poort - English: East gate.

The present TL mob/gang that day:
Dingo-Vandana2923-Vsinopoulos- JohnTulip (moi)

Corpus delicti's from members :
Nikon's and Canon's

Period of 'crime time'
2 pm till 7 pm on Sat. Sept.15 2007

Ofcourse our partners where present, group did split up in *shoppers and shooters* to meet again round 5.30

Than we made a mini cruise with an old canal boat
in Delft's small canals

Now here comes the trick:

Im May last Yolanda and I went on a Mideterranean
Cruise for 11 days..all went fine..

Here on this little *canal cruise* in Delft we ended up in a crash of the strearing gear, drifting around!

So.. a second boat had to come and pick us all up, to move in another boat in the middle of the Canal!!!

Trust me when I say.. there still is the danger of 'wet my pants of laughter' thinking back to this moment!

We all did...it even made Vassilis grab his cell phone to call Constantinous in Athens to tell about this adventure! ( Will post a photo i the WorkShop)

Delft Folks!! In my opinion.. ever coming to Holland?
Put Amsterdam second and Delft at first place to see.

Thanks folks: Best regards

Hi John,
I'm happy to congratulate you on this beauty . . . and it sounded like a fun memory as well. Nice natural framing and splendid colors; perfect! One would never know that your ship almost went down in the canal. ; )
Great day,
Karen

Hallo John
Mooie weergave.
Wel vind ik het kader veel aandacht afleiden van het hoofdonderwerp.
Maar dat is persoonlijk.
Gr Jos

This is very much like a painting John! A very beautiful place! Very magical like a fairytale! B-)
Linda

very nice composition here john :)
i like how you included the water and trees on the right there to balance the framing :)
good clarity and colors :)

koh

Hi John :-)
Thank you for your comments on my images I very much enjoyed it and glad you got a good laugh :-)

I very much like your shots I have always admired people that can shoot landscapes so well. I have had zero luck with landscapes I tend to want to go in and organize them move the house over here set the mountain back further lol so my land scapes really flop big time lol
but when I see people like you shoot them it looks like God him self painted it for you :-) great shots you do here
feel free to email me I can answer your question on my model Karen that I use and how i get her to do strange things lol

So again here, how good to see this again. Fantastic photo.

Workshops are as photo's a little less( thats why there in WS yes? lol) but good memmories. Oh my goodness, that crash with the boat, what fun we all had.
Thanks Johnny and bye to Yolanda and you ( if you talk to Peep tell I send smile ) Hugs

Mooi, John... een bredere versie dan mijn impressie van de Oostpoort, en dat biedt uitzicht op die twee treurwilgen - mijn lievelingsbomen. Standpunt perfect... maar aan het downsizen zul je toch eens moeten "werken", om die jaggies in de reling en de daken van de torens te vermijden. Die bederven deze foto voor me, en dat vind ik jammer.

All that I know from Delft, is ... Philips !
and know, I know it through your pics.

mis weer scherpte en ook de toren net achter de bladeren is een gemiste kans

Hello John:)
Very nice framing - interesting subject - that kind of view I like it.
Did you add to much sharpness? I can say that is visible on fencing - but not bother me:)
Cheers - Tom

Hai John,
Heel mooi deze foto en wat een avontuur,
maar je hebt het droog gehouden hoop ik? :)

Hi John,
See, that is a story I missed out on - although changing boats in the middle of a canal really is not my cup of tea - nobody got wet from falling or laughing I take it then? Lovely picture of this beautiful city.

Hi Bro, haha, funny event happened to you on the canal, I am happy that you were rescued all :)
Were there instrumentist playing "closer to you my god..." ;)) Just joking!

this is a very fine image and weith a very nice pov, lovey colours and light.
I love those willows.
And this is a nice white bridge leading to the 2 towers. This is a nice medieval photo.

Take care, sis :)

Hi JohnT...
This looks like a fairytale...so very nice. I really expect to see a knight riding on a beauiful white horse coming out from behind the castle...everything is perfect ..the color, the framing with the trees...love it. TFS

Hi John

Nice symmetry between the twin turrets on the bridge. Superb overall sharpness & colour. Tfs!

Hi John, enchanting composition with great architecture, splendid colors, very well done, ciao Silvio

Yes you have for sure stunning themes explored, if see this building-construction Iam sure for it.
A very nice photo with excellent sharpness and lightness.
Have a nice evening.

Hello John,

A lovely shot from this beautiful Dutch town of Delft, captured from a very good POV, composed nicely, with great detail, vivid colors and very good exposure.
I enjoyed the WS of our wifes having fun, brings back great memories.

Wederom een prachtige plaat, John!
Compo, kleuren en inhoud zijn erg goed bepaald en vastgelegd. Goede belichting ook.
De linker torenspits zit achter het blaadje .... ik weet niet zeker of dat nou mooi is. Het stoort me niet, maar valt me wel op.
groeten,
Joop!

Hi John,
I've had a few-day break in TL, and in the meantime You uploaded so fantastic photos that I cannot critique each, except if I don't sleep. :) This is simply awesome, my Friend. I can't say more, because my mouth is still opened... :) Seems like a Dutch TL-meet wasn't a great fun only, but hard work, too, while composing shots like this. :) Congrats, and best regards from Your magyar friend.

Great colours, sharpness and excellent detail John !
Great lead-in also with the road/path - I only wish the two sphires were not too central. Though I think it's still a good view
