The Amsterdam Getaway

Last weekend me and my beloved girlfriend went for a short getaway to Amsterdam. We’ve both been there a couple of times on various occasions before and it seemed like the perfect place to forget the world for a couple of days…

We stayed clear of all the usual tourist attractions, museums with endless lines at the box office, Italian restaurants blatently offering a Tourist Menu for €19.99 (yikes!!!). Instead we drank a lot of Dutch beer and walked the city, through the bad and the good districts, had a look at all the little things. I was actually kind of hyped to take another shot at street photography and once again realized that it just isn’t my part of the game. I missed my lights and the Ranger unit… Each to his own I suppose. So I resigned to some cheesy Kodak Moments and clichée shots of Amsterdam. Below are a few…

Might do well on a postcard perhaps…

Classic A’dam bycicle on bridge shot… mind you, without the bridge in frame :-)
More after the jump!
