Photography

Hello everyone,

Today I would like to show you some of my photographs I made with my new Canon 1200 D. I went out a couple of times and took my camera with me. Most of the pictures are pictures of landscapes and flowers and that sort of stuff.
I live in the middle of the Netherlands and around my village there are a lot of facilities , parks and estates where you can walk around and make photo's!

I start with the first time I took my camera with me and I was really struggling with it but eventually I worked it out!

Because I live in the Netherlands and we live underneath sealevel , we have polders. In the Middle Ages people used them to store water that came from sea or heavy rainfall. It's quite difficult to explain but it's very old and quite beautiful.
So somewhere in the polder there is this big old tree without any leaves or something. But because the polder is flat and there a not many trees this tree stands out.

I made this picture of grass because I was trying to get the grass sharp and the background a bit vague. (Sounds weird and vague but I hope you understand what I mean!)

A picture of a thistle among all kinds of grass. I like this one because it came out quite nice.

This is actually an overview of where I walked from the gate where I started and ended my walk.

The next place I went to was a garden of an estate nearby my house. The garden of the estate is build in a English country garden style; so there are a lot of trees, perfect green lawns of grass and a big pond with little isles. The paths are not straight but are quite bendy. I like the kind of style because it's not neat or modern.

A picture of one of the meadows attached to the estate.

Here is a picture of the pond with trees around it. I like the lighting of the picture and the trees hanging above the pond.

One of the lawns wth trees. I really love this. It's so beautiful and nice.

Again the pond with yellow water lilies. Here you can see the little isles in the pond. There are a lot of them! I actually don't know if it is a pond or it is a lake...

And this is the last one of the estate. This is also a lawn with trees but this lawn is next to the pond/lake thingy.

I really liked to make this pictures altough they are not that good or professional. I'm still trying different things out with my new camera. I'm still learning and some day they are amazing!

I hope you liked it and see you next time!
Lots of love,
Emma
