@laurenshof @llPK I just found that @robhoeijmakers is also on Mastodon 💪 Even on our very own instance :blobblush: @stux@mstdn.social Couldnt be the netherlands: no bike lane :catgigglefrech: @stux Everything in the Netherlands just looks so nice - even the cities. I mean, I'm sure there are not so great parts, but as a Canadian I feel like there's so much we can learn from you - ecologically, urban space design, sociologically, and whatever the word for de-car-ifying the joint would be. @hans It does, but I spent most of my life in the Vancouver area/suburbs but a few years back moved to the Caribou in Central/Northern BC and BC is every bit as gorgeous as you might think. We have our issues, wildfires is a big new one thanks to climate change, but still feel really lucky to be here. "Thinking of Holland, Ok, this looks like a canal and not a river, but you get the idea 😉 @Woodswalked @stux I get multiple plants when searching for ‘queen Anne’s lace’, but both cows parsley (most likely, grows in many road sides here) and wild carrot are native plants in NL, so likely not invasive. @stux That blew my mind when i visited in 1998. There is no horizon hard to navigate @stux A wonderful example of a 'vanishing point' for anyone studying art (drawing/painting/etc.) and perspective. Too much order for me! It's impressive in its way but everything is so straight and flat and regular. I'd go mad. @stux @stux Daar heb ik een paar jaar dagelijks gereden. Ik woonde in Weesp en werkte in Maarssen.
@stux@mstdn.social @stux The photograph went viral and its authenticity was heavily debated 😀 As a web strategist it was fascinating to be in the middle of so much energy. https://webstrategiesblog.com/viral-photo/ @robhoeijmakers Oh wow really! 😮 I grew up in the North of the NL and these scenes are quite "common" :blobcatgiggle: 🇳🇱 Hope you don't mind I shared your photo! I only later discovered you on Masto :mastodon: |
@stux that’s a really great shot
