Also in Spring a farm in Agasiz has a tulip festival. Actually, it’s not much of a festival it’s more like the farmer will sell you flowers and let you walk around his fields. It is an interesting sight. It is a field full of colour. This photo gives you an idea of what it looks like.

Here I wanted as much in focus as possible so I set my aperture to f/22. With a shutter speed of 1/15th of a second I chose to use my camera’s mirror lockup function to avoid camera shake. Also, I underexposed the shot by a half stop to achieve some good colour saturation.
