[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
While most photo's posted were taken from the RAF monument towards the small pond where the plane crashed, this one was taken in almost the opposite direction.
No ponds or lakes here, but Belgian savanne on the foreground and more dense forest in the back. I especially liked the combination of the high grass and the rows of low bushes in between.

Hi Harko,
Second beautiful picture of this beautiful place...!
A good idea for this beautiful shot indeed..!
Good light and colours and good perspective of the 'Savane' too...!..;o)
Best regards,
Patrick

Hallo Harko,
Kijk eens aan, als iedereen naar links kijkt dan kijkt een Nederlander naar rechts...mooi ;-)
De opzet met de bomenrij is mooi opgezet met natuurlijke diepte, dankzij de boom aan de linkerkant.
De kleursetting is een beetje saai...ik heb hem wat opgekrikt in een WS, hopelijk vind je het wat.
Groet, Henk

I like those lines. Great DOF and colours.

Hi Harko,
Very nice natural colors ! I like this point of view of the Fagnes !
Christophe

Hi Harko,
Nice landscape with spendid colors. The composition mixing rows of several colors are very pleasant. Excellent picture.
Regards
Jean-Louis

Bonjour Harko,
une photo qui rend bien l'ambiance nuageuse et grise de certains moments passés à Malchamps.
Une vue plus originale car elle n'a pas été beaucoup proposée.
La netteté rend bien l'aspect savane des herbes et brouissailles.

J'ai été très heureux de te rencontrer, probablement nous reverrons-nous encore.

Best regards.
Daniel.

Hi Harko
Be careful with lions they can be dangerous if they are hungry ;-) Good shot with feel and look of Africa except the trees which don't look like acacias.
Cheers

Hi Harko,

Somehow this is a very stark photo... I can't see anything that makes me go 'wow' but overall it comes together. How? I wish I knew... really nice shot, well done.

Lewis.

Hi Harko
This shot really captures the atmosphere and nice grassy textures of the Fagnes. The sky is well exposed and Henk's WS is a good improvement on this already pleasing scene.
Have a nice day, Susanna

Bonjour Harko, tu fais parfaitement fait ressortir l’ambiance fagnarde avec la blancheur de ces herbes qui caractérise si bien cette région de nos haut plateau belge, comme d‘habitudes je suis toujours le dernier à poster, mais si tu reviens nous voir en juillet pour la prochaine rencontre j’apporterai un traducteur pour que l’on puisse mieux se parler, ce fut une chouette rencontre TE, bien amicalement

hello Harko,
Dutchman can not do like the others ;o)
A nice light here, I might miss a subject.

Oh, you may have a WS...
regards
didier

Dag, Harko. Een typisch beeld van de Hoge Venen met die eïsoleerde bomen midden in het wilde gras. Ik hou van de afwisseling tussen groene en lichtgekleurde strepen die veel diepte geven aan het geheel. Het contrast tussen de bomen op de achtergond en de hemel werkt ook goed.

Hi Harko,
Beautiful composition.
Lovely Belgian savane, great colors, light and sharpness.
TFS,
Corinne

Hi Harko!
Maybe the light is a bit too strong here and Henk`s ws is a bit too dark.Good composition with the diagonal row of trees and the forest in the background,and a good contrast with the grey sky.
Regards,Leo

Hallo Harko,

Ook een van de deelnemers in de Hoge Venen, u had weinig geluk met het weer, hier moesten van die bolle wolken geweest zijn, maar dat is niet aan de fotograaf gelegen, verder is de samenstelling zeker niet slecht, de WS van Henk maakt de kleuren iets anders, dit zijn keuzes dat men maakt, scherp en zeker goede kwaliteit.

Prettig weekend,
John.

Hi Harko,
A nice one of the Belgian Savana, you benefitted here from the pleasant light of these slightly stormy conditions but I'm afraid you missed the Lion ;-))
Have a nice day,
Jean-yves
