A garden in Holland. Welcome on the gardensite of Thijs de Graaf. (E-mail: tjdegraaf@gmail.com.) about my hobby "gardening".

The pictures of my garden are from different seasons. Winter, spring, summer and autumn and have their own charm. In "spring 2007" and “summer flowers” I describe many plants. Also I have mentioned my house plants and euphorbia. On the page "garden" you can see pictures of the front- and back garden.

In 2007, I  have started to describe the animals in the garden. Many insects have their own page now. (butterflies, damsel-dragonflies, flies,beetles, bugs, hoverflies 1 and 2)

My holidays

I also have made some pages about different holidays. I describe the landscape as much as possible. Of course I have made a choice. The pictures of France are from a long time ago. But also the pictures of Ireland and Scotland I had to scan. Czechia and England are the last visited countries. May 2008: Spain: Andalusia. New 2011: France, Picardy Normandy

The dunes

I have made a start with a page about the dunes around here (Jan. 2009)

The photos are taken with an hp photosmart 735 and from 2007 also with a hp photosmart  R818. From 2008 a Fujifilm FinePix S9600. From May 2010 a Sony digital camera DSLR-A450.

I wish you much joy!

Take also a look at my favourite links.
