Wow, what a day!!! My feet really hurt and my shoulders!!!! It was great meeting up with Scott, Michael, Nij & Emily, Davor & Leanne and Graham, his dad Barry, mum Enid and her friend Joy.

I started several hours before we met up so am posting some of those early shots now and then someone else can start pics from when we were together... all my morning pics were with the Cos 100/3.5 - I hope you are impressed Turerkan... MF will be the death of me LOL

Glad to hear you had a good day - Some great shots there - the one with the bee [9] is wonderful! I like the first white flower [7] a lot too...

Rosie, looks like a fantastic day out. The tulips look stunning. No 2 is my favourite - print it BIG.

Hey Rosie, wow that bee shot is super. I didnt notice any bees or other flyers around so that must've been rare to catch! #2, you guys must've stayed longer than us to catch that with no people around - once again Im sorry to everyone if I didnt say bye, I got confused.

All up it was a great day out and both my girlfriend and me had a great time with the group, it was nice to meet you all and to take a heap of photos with friendly cameras around :)

Ill get my captures up tomorrow, ended up stopping by that park (with birds) on the side of monbulk rd (almost belgrave side - for those who go down that way) so Ill chuck some of them in the mix.

This place is probably nicer than the original, now that fall is starting in Holland. Nice to see cloggie culture abroad being put into the spot-light so well!!

I like Rosie's #4 (the horses) and #6 (the rows of red tulips),
Scott's (or is it Pat ???) #9 is great.

Didn't anybody spot ANY wooden shoes?

What's the name "Tesselaar" referring to? Is it a family name?
(In Dutch, it could refer to an inhabitant of the Dutch Island of Texel ... the 'x' in the name is pronounced as a double īsī)

So many photos, so little time - I'll pick the "best of the best" later in the week. It was a great day, lovely spring day of 22C but millions of people making it hard to get good shots at times.

Wooden shoes everywhere, but none made it into my photos I'm afraid.

Tesselaar is the name of the couple who started it in 1939 - they migrated to Australia on their wedding day in in 1939 and started doing the only thing they knew when they got here, eventually it became the largest privately owned flower grower in the country. festival has been running for nearly 4o years!
