This afternoon the temperature in my area (Zeeland, the Netherlands) was 20° C or 68° F. I was told that such a relative high temperature early in the year has happened only once before in the 19th and 20th century. The people took advantage of it. The beaches were crowded today and a lot of people went to the parks to enjoy this early springtime weather.

I couldn't resist to capture such a scene. Hope you'll enjoy it. Thanks in advance for your comment.

My resistance would be low to such a beautiful scene also SEA.
I believe you had a very mild winter.
Lucky you and all your countrymen.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

Boy, does this look familiar—the only things missing are the people and about a billion dots...

Another work of art from our Dutch friend.

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have any film.

We have it a little colder than you but we are following right behind you with the weather Cornelius. A lovely springtime image with those colourful crocuses and well composed showing the rest of the scenery.

This is such a lovely and charming image Mr.C- I love the reference above to Seurats wonderful painting which hangs here in the Art Institute of Chicago - I've seen it many times and I do see the connection. Added this one to my faves as I still see ice and snow out my window.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

I know that I already commented, but I just wanted to tell you again how much I have been enjoying this scene as a desktop the last few days. Even my family have said something when they've walked by and seen it displayed. The colors and composition are extraordinary and a "feast" for the eyes!
