EuropeTrip Day3 AMSTERDAM (Holland)

Amsterdam was really our first tour stop apart from London. Here we are taking photos near the river.. There's heaps of canals and bridges here, lots of history and so on... it was truly beautiful walking around.



                        We started our Amsterdam tour on a cruise getting the glimpse of the Holland history~~~



                                 There are heaps of canals and bridges in Amsterdam.. amazing


                                       One of the picture i took of Mary out of thousands of bridges...~~~




Houses here has regulations to build narrow and high as you can see here. One houses are built one after another..so houses look different.



                                                                    Holland = windmill???



                                                                                City Centre






I had a good review of the photos i took, which was shocking at first with wrong focusings and etc... but i gradually learn how to take a decent DSLR photos...


I took a photo of this guy in costume...then he started to march towards me with his hands out!! i was like what do you want.. then it striked me that i can only take photos when we pay..can you see a jar in front of him?? so i gave him 2 euros.. damn i think i gave him too much...


He seemed to be pleased with the price i ve paid so he asked Mary to take another photo with him.. so here it is....
Right after the photos Mary asked him " What are You??" He replied "i'm Neptune" i think...there was heaps of other costumed ppl such as Batman,Gladiator and etc.


I could have taken this photo brighter~~ well i didnt have any skills to do so since i was a DSLR beginner back then.



                      Some old old clock tower... so antique~~so nice.. you dont see these kind of things in Aus



We wanted to visit Anne Franks houes but this was the only 1/4 of the queue.. we couldnt waste our precious time standing so we just took photos outside...shame~~~


                                          Mary in front of Anne Franks house("Huis" = House in Dutch) 



                                     Europe is full of small cars~~ here's the example~~~


                                                 and a different sort of transports too~~~



                                     Just so tiring after walking around so much with a heavy bag~~



                               just few pictures from the bible museum that we visited @ Amsterdam



on the way back to meet our tour group. My hands were freezing... Map on my left and camera on my right hand.

oh... I would love to visit to Holland! I think the countries in eastern europe are so beautiful.
The atmospheres, the buildings... and colours... it looks like I am looking in the paintings.

BTW,
'but i gradually learn how to take a decent DSLR photos' - are you praising yourself? :P...hehe Teach me so I can take a decent photo too.

decent photo meaning photos were at least focused...coz i love so many precious photos that was out of focus.

BTW Holland is western Europe..kkk
