More Pictures, Flower Mart and Garden

6963 These are the auction clocks.  There are two and as you can see they are offering different flowers.  I found out how the auction works.  They list the item and everyone punches in a price if they want them.  The guy that selects the highest price gets as many as he wants or all of them.  If he doesn't take them all the reminder go up for bids again and so on until the lot is completely sold. Some brokers are bottom feeders.  They won't bid until the price gets pretty low.  If they don't get any, that's ok with them.
6964 These are the brokers.  As you can see the seats are not full reflecting the fact that it's not a busy day.  Before Mother's Day and Valentine's Day the place is jammed.
6994 This is an area of the  Keukenhof Flower Gardens.  You can see the mist in the distance.  I'm amazed by my new G16s ability to gather light.  I didn't get that good a look with my eyes.
7001 This is a tulip display in the Willem-Alexander Building at Keukenhof.  It's just part of one grouping.  There were about 14 of these large displays.
7030 Another part of a different diaplay.
