Between Leiden and Haarlem in the Netherlands is the center of Dutch bulb flower cultivation. Each spring, this makes for very colourful landscapes.

This panorama was created from 9 photographs and spans about 100 degrees. The fields were located a bit unfavourable with regard to the position of the sun, producing some notable banding in the sky background.

:-) they are real. The flowers in question on the photograph are mainly Hyacinth flowers, which come in these brightly coloured variaties.
