Netherlands Tulip fields near Espel
The tulip fields near Espel and Creil in the Netherlands are definitely a must see for anyone. There are plenty of different colors and there is even a tulip path you can walk to see all of them.
This spot is great for taking photos during sunset, because the direction of the fields is pointing towards west, which will add those nice leading lines towards the background. The farm and the windmills also add up to a nice composition, making this field a great choice for photography.

Photography Tips
