A portrait of two beekeepers - Sandy and Jan - in the middle of a field of rapeseed flowers while doing a routine check-up on their bees and honey. The honey originating from the rapeseed flowers is different in texture and taste. Not as clear and liquid as 'normal' honey, this one is more solid and foggy. Even though these flowers are loved by bees, fields such as these are rather scarce and rare to see.

Beekeepers Jan and Sandy inspect a honeycomb frame together in a blooming yellow rapeseed field under a cloudy sky.
