Stroll through the park *10 Pics*

[doenoe]

Today was a nice day and i thought it would be nice for a walk through the park. The park is in the middle of our city and at the IJsselmeer (used to be a sea, but they put a dyke in it. So it became a lake, weird huh). Plus there is this little petting zoo (Not really petting, since you cant get to the animals, but i dont know another word for it) You see lots of different things there, so there alot of different pics.
Here they are:

Oh and the wierd texture you see at the bird shots, is actually a fence.
Thanks for looking and any comments are welcomed. Always good to learn stuff.

I was wondering what that was I really like the last two pictures. Nice shots.

That round tower is very interesting.
I like all the boat photos!
And the fallen cluster of leaves in the puddle with its reflection. Very nice!

And thank you for telling us what it is around the geese.
Is it a fence that you edited out or a fence that became thus blurred through a long focus? It is quite distracting, I must say.

I love the first one. I quite like the fence effect. How did it happen?

Thanks for the comments
The round tower is one of the well known places of Hoorn. Lots of tourists make pictures of it and there are alot of people who make paintings of it.
Now for the fence: i never edited out the fence. There just wasnt enough room to get it completly out of focus and then you apperently get this stuff. You can slightly see it in the first pic too.
