Dutch Windmills

The Netherlands is so closely associated with windmills, that it's often the first fact people recall about the country. The Dutch built windmills for many centuries.To some extent, the windmills built the country itself, since without them much of the land drainage (like 40%) could not have occured. It's about 1150 remaining windmills in the Netherlands.Here below some pics depicting this amazing home-construction:

But this kingdom of  the imagination is well know also for other Belgium's comic stripe heros:  Spirou, Bob and Bobette, the Smurfs, Lucky Luke, Asterix and many more. Here below some photographs from this trip:

Spring time at countryside

Going at countryside made me thinking about presenting spring time through my camera. I'm not very keen in taking photos of nature but this time I found another life in the grass. Please have a look at this "jungle's life".
