"Under and above." Westervoort, Holland.

As I told this morning today is just awesome!
Spring is definitely coming soon, it's just waiting
for the first green spots to appear. In the mean time
I practice for model-painting tonight, real models not

What a great sunrise this morning here in my hometown, such
a lovely springy feel to it with that soft pink sky and the heavy
yellowish green fields. Not hard to find a nice spot this way.

"Behind De Horsterhof." Duiven, Holland.

A few day ago I received a Email about a farm nearby,
"De Horsterhof" a micro dynamic biological farm. I knew
it but I triggered me to have a look again, and together with
the marvelous weather (Sun is in full swing) it was a gorgeous
spot to be, ... looked around after while and discovered soo
much more spots so all in one,

I found a new spot!!

Thank you so much Corry.
