As a real Dutchman, I am a big fan of our beautiful flowers. And as a landscape photographer, I enjoy our colorful spring each year in which I always find time to photograph the flowers and show the beauty of the Dutch tulips to the whole world. Most of you probably know the world-famous Keukenhof, the most beautiful tulip field in the world. Every year millions of tourists visit this garden. That’s a huge lot considering the garden is only open in spring! Every year, a hard-working crew makes sure the flower arrangements in this garden look as good as ever, including this year!

This year is ‘special.’ Keukenhof is closed, for the first time in 71 years. But that doesn’t mean there are no colorful flowers blossoming. On the contrary; the flowers look incredible and get as much attention and care as always. All the passionate gardeners do their work as they’re used to. Because even without people, nature and the show of the garden goes on.

I’ve been photographing these colorful flowers since forever, mostly in the countryside. I photographed them from all angles you can possibly imagine, but there was one thing that I still wanted to capture one time in my life: Keukenhof without any other people. This seemed impossible, until this year’s April 2020. With the COVID-19 virus keeping everyone at home and tourists away, I knew this was my only chance of taking such stunning pictures. I contacted Keukenhof explaining what I had in mind and they were so kind to let me photograph the garden for a day.

When I visited the park it looked at its best. Interestingly enough, we have experienced the sunniest April EVER in the Netherlands, making all the flowers pop very fast. Photographing in broad daylight with the strong sun was a challenge. But forget about the photography for a moment: walking around there all alone, with only the sounds of birds and the incredible smell of all these flowers, is an experience by itself. I sometimes just sat next to the flowers and the water, enjoying nature for 30 minutes long. It was just a magical experience. Having no people in the park allowed me to photograph paths and take beautiful photos in a certain way that you normally don’t get to see because of the crowds.

This photo series is an initiative from myself in collaboration with Keukenhof. We aim to show the beauty of the park through these images. Too bad there’s no smell involved.

    With no people around, these zig-zag paths become visible showing the attention to detail in the layout of the garden.

    The famous Keukenhof windmill. The miller was so kind to move it to the correct position for pictures.

    A rare species of tulips that I had not seen before.

    The world-famous ‘Blue River.’ A road of blue grape hyacinths zigzagging through the trees.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    In Keukenhof, you can find a bunch of classic Dutch bridges. This is one of them right at the entrance, surrounded by a sea of colorful tulips.

    Did I mention the attention to detail? From the ground, I didn’t even see this, but when I flew my drone a few meters up it appeared that these were planted in the shape of a tulip flower!

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Seas of tulips around my favorite area of the park: the pool with the fountain in the middle.

    Lines and lines of tulips, hyacinths, and narcissus flowers in between the trees.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    I love to photograph dreamy portraits of flowers, and the Keukenhof is perfect for that with its many different kinds of flowers.

    My favorite places in the Keukenhof are the pools. Seeing the water reflecting the trees and flowers gives such a calm feeling. If you look closely you can see a gardener do his work. Because even with no people visiting the garden, the work goes on.

    In some parts of the park, you can find endless seas of different colored tulips that together make a beautiful abstract color palette.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    The little paths make harmony with the trees and different flowers all around them.

    An image of the white bridge near the entrance of the park showing the scale of a hill with thousands of tulips that can be seen in front of it.

    A low angle perspective in the part of the park that I’d like to call ‘cherry blossom garden’ where you can find dozens of cherry blossoms combined with tulips. Did I mention the smell!?

    A high key portrait of the Fritillaria Imperialis flower. One of my favorite flowers in the park.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Zigzag lines of flowers, water, and paths almost looks like these scenes are dancing.

    Attention to great detail of lines and shapes in which the flowers are planted is the signature design of The Keukenhof. I love how they combine these flowers with beautiful trees. And they all blossom at the same time.

    Dare to be different. A white tulip with a red leaf standing out in the lot, with a viewpoint on the tulip fields in the background.

    A portrait image of grape hyacinth.

    Real summer vibes with green trees, blue sky, and circular shapes of tulips. It’s only spring, but this image already reminds me of summer.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    I love how you can see these lines and shapes of tulips in the park.

    Sun peaking through the trees in the afternoon, with the lines and paths of flowers making harmony with each other.

    All the different flowers are perfect for doing macro images in the park.

    One of my favorite little scenes in the park: a Japanese cherry blossom tree with a beautiful shape with a path through flowers leading up to it. It looks like a scene out of a fairytale.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    My favorite area with part of the big pool on the right. Lines and shapes of tulips all pointing towards the middle.

    It’s in the details with these small patches of different colored hyacinth flowers carefully places on the grass between the trees.

    The red and yellow carpet of tulips as seen from a drone perspective from about 10 meters up.

    A portrait of an interesting breed of a narcissus flower.

    I really couldn’t get enough of these patches of different kinds of flowers with different colors along the paths and the trees everywhere in the park.

    See-through along the walking bridges in the park with cherry blossoms on top.

    Water reflecting the beauty of the trees and flowers.

    In Minnesota, we have the Nurenberg Gardens but on a much smaller scale. (I'm not sure I spelled it correctly). I do appreciate people's willingness to spend hours & hours of time & energy to create then care for such spectacular works of art from nature.

    Unfortunately, because people are frobidden to visit Keukenhof this year they stormed over nearby tulip fields to get the photos. Because of the damages which they made the tulip fields owners cutted the flowers eralier this year.

I was visiting the UK (from SA) and my son decided to take me to Keukenhof for my birthday --we flew from London early morning in the dark and returned near midnight the same day. What a delight. A feast for the eyes. Beauty supreme.

    Please forgive me for saying this, as in general I see the positives in things but, I hate these photos! They are too doctored by man. Too regimented and artificial looking, not natural at all! I understand that the precision and colour coordination has taken a great deal of work and design but again I think nature does it better it's own way! We live on a mountain road between Frigiliana and Torrox, Spain and the hedgerows are beautiful beyond belief! The diversity of vibrant colours, shapes and sizes are natures "random" artwork and I'm of the opinion it is far better than anything man assembles! Sorry again to give a contrary opinion but What I say is straight from the heart.

Took the time to visit the many beautiful attractions and Museums, Keukenhof Gardens remains a favorite along with the Flower and Cheese Auction houses. The friendly people are the gem of the country as well as the wonderful sights. Looking forward to returning in 2021.

    Mr. Dros, I have no words for the beauty of your photographs. But I can tell you this, they brought tears to my eyes. I've always wanted to visit the Keukenhof gardens. And I just withdrew from our local community college where I was taking photography classes. So of course, with me crying, I had to say that it was for both. I hope to one day be able to take gorgeous photos such as yours. Thank you for allowing me to view part of my heritage. I'm of Dutch descent and I hold it dearly to my heart of hearts. Thank you again! You made a lasting impression upon my heart and I hope to never forget it. Kathi Klootwyk Sivyer

    I absolutely agree! God makes what the naked eye sees and that is what should be shown in a photograph. If the photo is altered it's made by the photographer. My husband is a photographer and was a purist meaning he did not alter photos.....but he caved and started doing it and I think his photography has gone down hill since. I love natural beauty and natural colors in photos!

    I visited Keukenhof in 1982 on a bus trip with friends from my German class in Cologne, Germany. I'm American & my friends were from Finnland & France, so we all spoke poorly in German. It was such fun. And loving photography, I got beautiful pictures there without trying. I used them to make handmade calendars for friends & family (This when you had to glue photos to the paper & calligrahy the letters & numbers, because software for that did not exist yet). The bus only gave us an hour or 2, I could have stayed much longer. And it would have been much nicer to photograph without all the many people there! I was eyeing those curved paths to be empty! You lucky dog, you!

    Unfortunately, because people are frobidden to visit Keukenhof this year they stormed over nearby tulip fields to get the photos. Because of the damages which they made the tulip fields owners cutted the flowers eralier this year.

    Last year 2019, I had the privilege and pleasure of seeing Keukenhof for the first time. I was visiting the UK (from SA) and my son decided to take me to Keukenhof for my birthday --we flew from London early morning in the dark and returned near midnight the same day. What a delight. A feast for the eyes. Beauty supreme.

    Please forgive me for saying this, as in general I see the positives in things but, I hate these photos! They are too doctored by man. Too regimented and artificial looking, not natural at all! I understand that the precision and colour coordination has taken a great deal of work and design but again I think nature does it better it's own way! We live on a mountain road between Frigiliana and Torrox, Spain and the hedgerows are beautiful beyond belief! The diversity of vibrant colours, shapes and sizes are natures "random" artwork and I'm of the opinion it is far better than anything man assembles! Sorry again to give a contrary opinion but What I say is straight from the heart.

And I just withdrew from our local community college where I was taking photography classes. So of course, with me crying, I had to say that it was for both. I hope to one day be able to take gorgeous photos such as yours. Thank you for allowing me to view part of my heritage. I'm of Dutch descent and I hold it dearly to my heart of hearts.

    I absolutely agree! God makes what the naked eye sees and that is what should be shown in a photograph. If the photo is altered it's made by the photographer. My husband is a photographer and was a purist meaning he did not alter photos.....but he caved and started doing it and I think his photography has gone down hill since. I love natural beauty and natural colors in photos!

    I visited Keukenhof in 1982 on a bus trip with friends from my German class in Cologne, Germany. I'm American & my friends were from Finnland & France, so we all spoke poorly in German. It was such fun. And loving photography, I got beautiful pictures there without trying. I used them to make handmade calendars for friends & family (This when you had to glue photos to the paper & calligrahy the letters & numbers, because software for that did not exist yet). The bus only gave us an hour or 2, I could have stayed much longer. And it would have been much nicer to photograph without all the many people there! I was eyeing those curved paths to be empty! You lucky dog, you!

    I would love to visit Keukenhof Gardens but sadly time and age have prevented it. Your virtual tour of the various pathways through the garden is awesome. I love the "Blue River." Your day at the park must have been so calming and breathtaking. Thank you for sharing!

    Thank you, thank you, thank you! I was at Keukenhof 3 years ago and this brought me right back to my experience there. It was magical, even with people. Can hardly imagine having a whole day there by myself to soak in the beauty and take photographs! What a blessing you were allowed in this year during Covid-19 to capture the beauty all by yourself. Awesome!

    I have some grape hyacinths, but can't recall seeing a mass of them, however this time of year also produces the bluebell which I have seen in wild masses.

    Just amazing pictures. My thank to the photographer who shared his wonderful talent with the rest of us via boredpanda. I really appreciate the attention to detail, the time you took and contacting the garden to allow it to get done. Thank you also to the garden. Your gardeners are awesome.

    Man's arrogance in attempting to control nature continues to baffle me. This kind of attitude toward the natural world is the exact cause of the environmental woes many decry as selfish, greedy and ignorant.

    Ridiculous. The tulips of Keukenhof are treasured and cared for and highly desired all over the world. This is not selfish, greedy, or ignorant. It is respect, love, and nurturing a national treasure.
