New on 500px : Blue hour in Zaanse schans (The Netherlands) by JazzMatezz by JazzMatezz

24, maio 2016 rogersil66

I borrowed an OLYMPUS OM-D E-M5ii with Olympus 12-40mm 2.8 lens for free on 6 May 2016 for a weekend. The day after I decided to go to The Zaanse Schans, a windmill and museum park in Noord-Holland province which was the most popular attraction with foreign tourists in the Netherlands last year. After arriving just 15 min before sunset I made some sunset photos but was less satisfied because of the positioning of the windmills and the position of the sun. I decided till the blue hour kicked in and I made this photo of the famous cheese farm during the. I wasn’t the only photographer who was busy there.

About the lens & camera combination:
I actually llike this combination and prefer it above my Nikon D7100 kit. It is small, light, lens is very sharp and not so much flare when shooting in the sun or street lights, I like the focus peaking and magnification combination(nice for nightphotography), facetracking is a nice feature and usefull, and it can shoot like a machine gun (handy for small kids ;-). But i won’t switch to Olympus because in the future I would like to switch to a full frame camera because I like to shoot land/sea and cityscapes.

More about the cheesefarm from the photo
The Catharina Hoeve is an authentic 17th-century cheese farm, situated at the Zaanse Schans, close to Amsterdam. The Zaanse Schans is a popular tourist attraction for good reason: its historical wooden houses, warehouses and fully-operating windmills offer a true taste of ‘Old Holland’. Upon arrival at the Catharina Hoeve you can attend a cheese making demonstration, as well as tasting the various products and exploring the gift shop, where you’ll find a wide variety of cow, sheep and goat products. Entrance and tasting is free. Demonstrations are available in multiple languages.
