Puppies!

Many of you have asked to be kept up to date on the state of the puppies. Well, they were born a week ago. Three boys if I am right about things. Mother and babes are doing just fine!

The Netherlands 2013 Crazy Keukenhof

On my recent trip to The Netherlands, I had an opportunity to tour the world-famous Keukenhof Gardens and the surrounding fields of Lisse. Unfortunately like the rest of the world the gardens were about a month behind.

While I did get some beautiful shots indoors and even a few great shots of the outer gardens the tulip beds were nowhere near peak.

Still it is an interesting place and there was plenty to photograph; So I loaded up on photos. When I brought my stuff home I began to play with it a little. Here is what I like to call “Crazy Keukenhof”.
