Found these two mannequins in a store window in Alkmaar. I was intrigued by their unusual looks. So I had to take their picture of course. Nothing spectacular but a fun image.
So far the Summer has been beautiful. On Saturday we made a little trip in the Powassan area. This is the time of the flowering of various wild flowers turning the fields into great natural gardens. This time the goldenrod are colouring the landscape golden yellow while the great cloudy sky added a rich pattern of textures to this Summer landscape.
Walking along one of the busy downtown streets in Amsterdam, I noticed this happy guy standing inside a convenience store. Of course I had to take his picture and he did not object. so here is the picture of one very relaxed customer.
When we were staying in Alkmaar, my wife’s cousin came to pick us up in his boat. So boating along this canal we were floating through a very typical Dutch landscape reminiscent of a Jacob Ruysdael painting.
