Project Dutchy Spring 2010 – March 6

Most of you will remember that in the past year I did Project Bulbfield. Some of you have requested for me to do a similar project this year, with a more frequent interval. Who am I to keep that from you? Especially as I am proud to be Dutch, I love the area that I live in, I love the bulbfields and I love taking pictures.

I have decided to do the series during the bulbfield-season (March to July) with a 2 week interval. I am calling it Project Dutchy Spring 2010.  I will feature 3 different bulbfields: the first one will most probably have either daffodils or hyacinths early in season, the other 2 I think will have tulips later in season.

Also I will each week feature a few pictures of other stuff that catches my eye while taking pictures of the 3 featured fields. So here goes with the first March edition of Project Dutchy Spring 2010

I made some more pictures than featured in this post. You can see all of them in the set Project Dutchy Spring 2010 in my FlickR account. Also a few of them have been adjusted to black and white and put on my photoblog DutchBitch View.

Enjoy! I will follow up in 2 weeks!

Project Bulbfield – a year round

Alrightie then! “Project Bulbfield“ made it the year ’round and here is the overview of the whole year, that I promised you last week. I hope you have enjoyed it all. I know I did!

It was sóme year. A lot has happened in this past year, in my life, and in the lives of the people around me, in my personal life and my “internet” life. One of the biggest things being the passing of Lisa, to whom I dedicated “Project Bulbfield“ after she died on February 27 (which I will never forget as that’s my birthday) because she loved tulips. Lisa, I hope you are somewhere where you are painfree and happy and know that we are all still thinking about you. I can’t believe it’s almost been 8 months already…

Behold, Project Bulbfield – a year round

You can view the separate pictures here.

Project Bulbfield – September

Goodmorning to September 30 and the last installment of  “Project Bulbfield“! I can’t believe that a year has gone by of photographing this one bulbfield every month. It has become quite a nice series, even if I do say so myself and I hope you have enjoyed it.

Behold the last picture in the series: “our” bulbfield at the end of September. Soon it will be filled with bulbs again, holding a flowery blooming promise for next Spring, when the fields no doubt will be showing their colorful splendor again.

So there you go. One year of “Project Bulbfield”. Next month, in October, I will do an overview of this whole year of “Project Bulbfield”, so you can see all pictures of the past year again.

Now… I have to go and get busy. It’s Hellish Wednesday again, filled with work, groceries, running The Kid back and forth to school and basketbal practice, errands and all that shit. Tata!

Project Bulbfield – August

Oh yes, that’s right. It’s August 31 and another month is drawing to a close. I can’t believe how quickly the year is flashing by. In another few weeks our annual family birthday-palooza (The Lill Niece, The Sis, The Mom and The Kid all in 2.5 months time) is hitting off, and then some more and holiday season is right there… Yeah, I know, let’s not get ahead of ourselves, but ya know, it’s fine by me. I have fun stuff to look forward to, so the next few months can flash by for all I care :)

But right now it’s the last day of August and it’s time for the August issue of “Project Bulbfield“!

As I expected last time the fields are being ploughed right now and the farmers are getting them ready to get the bulbs in the ground for next season, which they will probably do in October. All the weeds have been ploughed out and the field is waiting to start a new round.

Just one more issue to go and we’re there. One year of “Project Bulbfield”!
