Haven't posted in a while, bandwidth issues with Photobucket apparently!

Here are a selection of details taken on the streets of Amstrerdam (people shots added to people section).

Mostly done with the 70-200L f/4 (love this lens!), pp done in Lightroom to convert to black and white. Gone for quite a high contrast b&w effect, no sure if it'll be to everyone's taste but as always, feedback is more than welcome.

Others have been left in colour.

Feedback welcome as always.

It's nice to see what details someone else might notice.
#6 is probably the most typical Amsterdam shot you can take, which is a lovely find :)

Thanks for the feedback :)

Agreed. I think that's one of the nice things about photography, it really makes you 'see' rather than just look. :)

Nice shots. I was in Amsterdam March 2008 and would like to go back again.
