Polderfoto's
Vanwege mijn lage energielevel, ik ga regelmatig bij de haard zitten, de laatste dagen. En neem een half uurtje tijd om mijn mans foto's op de blog te plaatsen. Deze foto's hij maakte onderweg naar huis, in Ă©Ă©n van de polders.

The landscape is very flat. With many ditches and streams. Stone bridges and beautiful grassland. And willows along the water. Typically Dutch. I love willows and wrote about it in one of my books. Here a link to my Writers Blog
- What is your favorite tree?
Knotwilgen
Prachtig landschap, gekoesterd door de middagzon. Geen hectiek. Ik houd wel van dat vlakke land. Knotwilgen vind ik geweldig. En dat weet mijn man, vandaar die foto's. Ben ik blij mee. In Ă©Ă©n van mijn boeken heb ik ook een stukje geschreven over de wilgen en hoe de Germanen er vroeger tegenaan keken. De boom was vroeger een symbool van de dood. Heksen rustten in de kruin van de wilg. Daarom maakten ze vroeger fluitjes uit het wilgenhout om de heksen op een afstand te houden. Mijn hoofdpersoon had zo'n fluitje.

Beautiful photos! I didn't know what a polder was, so just looked it up! Your landscape is so similar to the are where I come from in the UK... no wonder we were once attached to Holland!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThank Lisa. Yes? Is it a bit similar? Only one of my daughters visited the UK. I dream of visiting Scotland. I am placing a (polder)link now
Verwijderen...a fabulous landscape...I'd love to visit!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenLovely photos. I didn't know what a polder was and so I looked it up. Here is what I got: pol·der: noun

My favorite tree is a Maple Tree and it turns the most beautiful color in Autumn. No snow here yet until tomorrow but it is very, very cold -2 degrees this morning. Have a day of blessings Jedidja
Beautiful photos- I've never heard of a polder- now I have learned something new today. My favorite tree is the aspen, especially in the fall, when it's leaves turn golden.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenGreat photos. I like any tree that has beautiful colored leaves in the fall. Have a blessed day and a wonderful weekend. Madeline
BeantwoordenVerwijderenNew word for me...polder!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenBeautiful photos...love the 'other side of the bridge with the sunlight.
My favorite tree? Aspen
Love the photos of the landscape. I didn't know what polder is, so I'm glad he others took the time to look it up. I didn't know you are an author! My favorite tree in the fall is a sweet gum because it is gorgeous. I love aspens, but in the summer, a red oak is beautiful, as is a live oak.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThis is a lovely landscape with polders & your hubby caught great reflections in the water!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThanks for your comments on my post today with the swans & just to let you know that the swans seem comfortable with people close by & being fed too!
Lovely photos. I love the stone bridge!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenMy favorite tree is the Sugar Maple
Your landscape is very similar to Polish one
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThe photos are lovely. I like the reflections in the water, very nice. Polder was a new word for me too. I guess you taught most of us a new word today. :)
BeantwoordenVerwijderenLovely, serene scenes here. I love that second photo, with the sunshine coming through the branches of the trees, so pretty. - Tasha
BeantwoordenVerwijderenMy favorite tree? I've never really thought about that, but I do love Maples, especially in the fall. Thanks for sharing your ruby's photos. I'm so sorry you're not feeling well. Take care of yourself.
