Netherlands Tulip fields near Espel

  • Please log in or sign up for free to see the GPS coordinates & weather for this photo spot
The tulip fields near Espel and Creil in the Netherlands are definitely a must see for anyone. There are plenty of different colors and there is even a tulip path you can walk to see all of them.
This spot is great for taking photos during sunset, because the direction of the fields is pointing towards west, which will add those nice leading lines towards the background. The farm and the windmills also add up to a nice composition, making this field a great choice for photography.

Photography Tips

Try different perspectives and compositions. Sometimes it looks better to have the paths between the tulips just in the middle of your photo and sometimes it's better to use them as leading lines, coming from the side of your photo.

If you try to do vertical shots, you should probably be familiar with Focus Stacking, a technique that is explained in our blog.

Travel Information

This field is pretty easy to find and there are a lot of similar fields nearby, so just take your photos at which ever field you like the most. You can usually leave your car just nearby at the street.

Please respect the property of the farmers though. Stealing flowers or running through the tulip fields is forbidden and you definitely don't want to have strangers in your garden, would you?

In the polders, north of Holland, there are huge beautiful fields of tulips which are somewhat less popular amongst the tourists. However, nowadays the farmers are quick to cut off the flowers, save and collect the bulbs and prepare the ground for the following vegetation, so you really have to be on time. So beautiful Manuel!

Yeah that's a good point. We had that "issue" as well and therefore moved to this spot which was even more beautiful anyway. But in general you have to be flexible and scout at the day which fields might be promissing for sunset photos or whatever you would like to shoot.
