Ronald Van der Hilst, Michael James O'Brien and Menno Kroon
Dear Shaded Viewers,
The reason for my 15 hour journey to Holland was to be present at the exhibition of Ronald van der HIlst, aka the Tulip Master, at the country home of Menno Kroon. I had introduced the photographer Michael James O'Brien to Ronald because I thought that a collaboration between the two of them would work very well, it did. In the exhibition there is a wall of Michael's photos of Ronald's work. I will post some videos later and Michael will post some of his photos. Menno is a master florist and interior designer who owns a celebrated flower shop.

I was worried that I was going to miss the whirling dervish and so happy that I did not.
They told me when they saw me that they thought that I was one of them.
