Electric Flower:
There need be no question in your mind about the market for good flower photography. One of the big slide film distributors has found flower fanciers the most consistent buy ers of all among slide collectors, even though the pictures offered are strictly of specimen flowers. These cannot possibly have the same appeal as pictures of flowers grown by the buyer in his own soil. The only flower fancier who is not an eager prospect for pictures of his blooms is one who has never seen a color slide transparency of a beautiful flower projected. A close-up of a lovely flower on a screen is a sight to make anyone, flower lover or not, gasp at its beauty.Floiver festivals are frequent in the flower belt between Haarlem and Leiden. When the tulips are at their height in April, every Sunday is Tulip Sunday. A National Flower Show (mid-March to mid-May) is held on the Keukenhof Estate at Lisse. Later in the season (not the bulb-flower season), two magnificent festivals occur. The Hague stages a brilliant Flower Festival (early in August), with election of the Flows Queen (parade) and with special prizes such as that for the best bicycle Decoration (open to children); and an Aalsmeer-to-Amsterdam Flower Parade (September) culminates in the Olympic Stadium, for the award of prizes. The floats are always marvelous.
electric flower generators are made in a wide range of sizes and capacities. There are tiny machines no larger than a wrist watch which produce only enough electric flower current to actuate a sensitive recording instrument, and there are great turbo-alternators, weighing more than 200 tons, which produce enough electric flower power to furnish light for a city of half a million people. Between these extremes, there are many generators varying in size according to the special task which they are designed to perform. electric flower generators may be of the alternating current type or the direct current type.
