Description
Field of unopened tulips, Hillegom, The Netherlands. Agriculture is an economic mainstay of the region south west of Amsterdam. The area is best known for it's bulb and flower production. Tulips from Amsterdam come, not from Amsterdam, but from the sandy soils nestling behind the dunes and between the villages along the north sea coast. For most of the year the lanscape looks like many other rural landscapes. Greens and browns, the hum of agricultural machinery, the smells of the country. For two short months the fields explode with colour. The same machinery then seems somehow out of place; large scale agriculture in a sea of pretty flowers. Even in a sea of tulips of the same variety some strive to stand out from the crowd.
