Typical Amsterdam buildings
Visit my website: www.macropoulos.com
I'm back! Me and my wife had a great time in Amsterdam last week, although I was attending an IT course for most of the day. During the next days, expect me to post some of my favorite shots of this city, which I found wonderful inspite of the fact that it lacked the green and blue colors (leaves and sky) which I'm sure I would've experienced had I visited a bit later, during springtime. It'll take a while before I manage to get through all my contacts' photostreams to see what I missed, so please bear with me :-)
These are your typical Amsterdam buildings, lining the sides of the canals. I loved these narrow and tall structures, all built following the same design logic, but each different than the next, each having its own character.

See where this picture was taken. [?]

Interesting architecture. The houses are literally squeezed together.
Nice sharpness. Did you use the macro lens to take that one?

You wont see much of the green & blue colors of Amsterdam often, but when the sun does shine, it truly becomes a beautiful city. Very nice picture!

I like the vertical feel of this too -- and the variations in the styles and colors of the buildings.

You shot so many different styles of buildings and yet this is a unity. It's typical Amsterdam. Great shot. You can come back in spring or summer and you will see a total different city around the canals.

房子排成一列，不同的造型及顏色，爭奇鬥豔，我喜歡左邊的那一棟房子，看起來就像是一棵聖誕樹， 哈哈...謝謝你的分享
The house forms a line, different model and color, vie with each other for glamour, I like that house on the left, it seems to be just like a Christmas tree, HA HA ...Thank your sharing

Last year was the first time I went back to holland in 56 years and I loved every minute of it.
These photos are just great and fills in the ones that I didn't have time to take.
Thank you

Hi, I made a prtsc of your image and then a collage. I referenced you in the post but, if you want to, ask me to erase that.
Thank you for your excellent work
