The Inntel Hotel in Zaandam/Netherlands is definitely the main attraction of the city but also of the whole country.

The twelve-storey-high hotel tower with 160 rooms is a stacking and interpretation of various green-painted house types typical of the Zaan region, ranging from a stately notary’s dwelling to worker’s cottages. ‘The Blue House’ has been inspired by the work Claude Monet painted at Zaandam in 1871.

 

Construction finished in 2010, design by WAM architecten.

  

Many thanks for your visits, kind comments and faves, very much appreciated.

In the bus that brought us back from Keukenhof to Amsterdam, I had the chance to take a rather successful photo despite the difficult conditions. Usually, photos from a bus are missed, and I don't take my camera out there.

 

Here, we discover a glimpse of the rich Dutch plain and the canals that criss-cross it.

Dans le bus qui nous ramenait de Keukenhof à Amsterdam, j'ai eu la chance de prendre une photo assez réussie malgré les conditions difficiles de prise. Habituellement, les photos en bus sont ratées, et je n'y sors pas mon appareil photo.

 

On y découvre un aperçu de la riche plaine hollandaise et des canaux qui la sillonnent.

I am always amazed at the Tulip fields in Holland. The vivid display of colour these stunning flowers display is simply a joy to watch, I had to take this shot. Looking back through my catalogue I came across this capture from a few years ago, reminding me of the freedom and travel, and looking forward to seeing it again soon.

  

On the track in the new year, around Heinenoord.

 

Thanks for all the faves and comments, even for just taking the time to view my photo's, much appreciated.

Streefkerk is a town in the Dutch province of South Holland. It is a part of the municipality of Molenlanden, and lies on the southside of the river Lek, about 20 kilometres east of Rotterdam.

 

In 2004, the town of Streefkerk had 2600 inhabitants. The built-up area of the town was 0.37 km², and contained 628 residences. The statistical area "Streefkerk", which also can include the surrounding countryside, has a population of around 2,600.

 

Streefkerk was a separate municipality until 1986, when it became part of Liesveld. The latter has been part of Molenwaard since 2013.

Another upload of my photowalk in the Carnisse grienden, as we call our dutch wetlands, here near the shores of the river Oude Maas.

 

Sint Nicholaskerk is the most seen and at the same time overlooked church in Amsterdam as well as being one its most recent constructions, no one can miss this iconic structure upon arrival to the city walking from Centraal Station your eye is immediately drawn to it at 58 m in height it towers over the city skyline.

 

This Roman Catholic Church was designed by Architect Adrianus Bleijs and is a nod to the past combining elements of neo-Baroque and neo-Renaissance styles, completed in 1887 it was made a minor Basilica in 2012.

 

The church is dedicated to the 4th century charitable patron saint of children that became our Santa Claus as well as the patron saint of sailors and prostitutes, another winning combination.

 

In the Netherlands Santa Claus is known as Sinterklaas and a feast has been celebrated for over 700 years in his name and adopted in the early part of 20th century the tradition of leaving small gifts in children’s shoes was practiced on Dec 6th which has evolved now to become a Dec 5th evening tradition of gathering of family and friends to exchange gifts and laughter.

 

While Dutch Sinterklaas celebrations are mainly for the children its adult component is an annual grievance poem written to the recipient that must rhyme and be read out loud by the subject at the evening party all in good fun but beware you may get as good as you give.

Sunny summer day in the Dutch countryside with all it takes: the mill, the duck on river, cows and even bicycles.

 

Vlist River and polders at Bonrepas near Schoonhoven, Holland.

This week's theme of Macro Mondays is "Just White Paper". I did not know that I could have so much fun with just a piece of white paper!

 

I have folded a piece of white paper and - because I just cannot shoot without color (sorry for that) - shone a small red light against the edges of the sheet. The shot was backlit by daylight.

 

Thank you for your views, comments and maybe even faves! I appreciate it!

 

HMM everyone!

Lisse is a quaint town situated in the Netherlands, and it is renowned for being the epicenter of the world-famous Keukenhof Gardens, where visitors can marvel at a spectacular array of vibrant tulips and other spring flowers. Located in the province of South Holland, Lisse is ideally positioned in the heart of the Dutch flower-growing region.

Back from the cottage gentrification project ready for the season and our isolation oasis I hope that you enjoy the continuation of my re-edit visit to the Netherlands from fall 2017 to continue on unabated until arriving in Amsterdam for my final post in the series.

 

Thanks for all the supportive comments on this Dutch Masters process development and those that just like to have something trying to be a little distracting in their feed other than today’s current events,

my goal is to hopefully trigger a memory or the want of a memory of someplace you would like to be.

 

As mentioned before my short break, Delft is where we will pick up my reverse chronological order Dutch revisit, captured here is what I thought to be Vermeer’s corner but now upon some reflection realize it is not his view but it is a view of Delft just the same and not a bad one.

 

Delft is an easy day trip from almost any location in the Netherlands making it an excellent day trip, the core is easily walkable, chock full of historic treasures, wonderful shops, warm cafes and beautiful views and should not be missed.

 

I took this on Sept 17th, 2017 with my D750 and Nikon 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens at 58mm 1/40s, f/16 ISO 100 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia, Topaz , Luminar and DXO

Tja, wij hebben geen bergachtige vergezichten dus behelpen we ons maar met molens ;-)

One day, the mist, the light, it was there. Mind the speed, only 30 km. Going to school or work, on a dike, travel in the dutch style , on bicycle

A chilly and windy day at the beach in Holland, but people are still having lots of fun!
