I took this photo of a yellow tulip field near Swifterbant in Flevoland. As you can see, it was an overcast day when I took this photo, fortunately there were also sunny moments this day. It was a windy cold day though. I thought the yellow colour of the tulips contrasted nicely with the grey cloudy sky. In post-processing, I cropped this photo to 16:9 so that the sky and the tulip field were more balanced. It is a truly Dutch photo with the tulips, cloudy sky and windmills. In the background, you can see another row of trees where a cycle path also runs. I chose to photograph the beds lengthwise to add more depth to the photo.
