Shall I compare thee to a summers day

            Sometimes a title for a picture comes up spontaneously, and that was the case in this situation. Last Sunday amazing weather, but cold, with beautiful light. This is an area close to Utrecht (again), which I discovered last year, and which has to my surprise been redeveloped as a nature area. On the left (not visible here) they have removed a lot of the soil, and the area is changing into peat with lots of birds (again). There is only a small stretch of land between the ditches that surround it, so it is also great for great perspective pictures. The end of the day was glorious and i was almost on my own most of the day. Well alone.... 10000's of geese or more!
