So summer is always challenging for photography, especially landscape photography, but also wildlife and nature as all seems to slow down or just play hide and seek. Summer it seems to be the transition phase between the busy spring period and the preparing for winter autumn period.

It has been cloudy and raining a lot here in the west part of The Netherlands. This is a good thing for the vegetation and farmers are happy I guess. It doesn't do well for great photography when its dull and grey. However sometimes the cloudy skies will let sunlight filter through as it did the last few days. You can feel the damped air, sun light when it hits and with this the grasslands just explode.
