Photographer’s Note
One of my favourite spots is the cornerblock of the Prinsengracht and the Brouwersgracht where you can see different styles of gables, You can also see the little tower of the Noorderkerk and ofcourse a bridge and some boats in the canal, Amsterdam at its best.

Hello Gerrit,
A beautiful rendering of a fall day. The light is good and I like the way the colour orange repeats itself in the picture; orange briks on the bulidings, the orange boat in the foreground and the fallen orange leaves in the canal. Good composition and balance.
Cheers!

Hi Gerrit,
What an amazing array of different angles on the buildings, some seem to lean in, others lean out, some lean to the side, quite incredible. Lovely colours here, helped by the soft light. Your composition shows so many interesting details and the POV across the canal is perfect.
Very nice scene, thanks for sharing.
Regards

Wonderful framing with so many details to find out, Gerrit. We can even see the caracteristic tilted facades leaning a bit to the street as if they were hanging to each other not to fall down. It's always nice to see some human elements moving around even if they are far away. Lovely creative shot showing a lot of the charm in Amsterdam.

muito bonita essa foto das contruções, e gostei bastante também da tonalidade da foto, e sempre da presença dos barcos Holandeses.

Hello Gerrit!
At its best, those are the correct word for this portrait of Amsterdam! The time of the day, with this golden light hitting every single element of the image, was pretty well chosen! In addition to that, we have a very good balance of light and shadow, which enhances the details of building and boats! The composition is very good, with the inclusion of all the elements necessary to gives us the hints of where we really are (bikes included!)! Sharpness and textures are also very good! I really like this one too!
TFS - Congratulations!
Warmest regards,
Neyvan

Hello Gerrit,
I adore these frontages which seem irregular and tilted. The sight is splendid. Amsterdam has a strong potential of attraction. The boats, the colors, are also captivating. A very beautiful realization. Congratulations.
Have a nice day and weekend

Hello Gerrit,
Another fine composition from Amsterdam nicely presented by yourself. The composition has a pleasing balance to it with the boats on one side and the canal bridge on the other. A very pleasing light brings out the detail in the lovely facades of the buildings to good effect.

Hi Gerrit. Another fine autumn scene. The building itself looks as if it has been affected by the season, thanks to the golden light. That way everything has been coloured by the same palette of autumn hues. Even the water is responding.Nice work. Regards. Klaudio.

Dag Gerrit,
Ik ben er van overtuigt dat meerdere van deze hoeken mooie beelden opleveren, absoluut geen afbraak aan deze foto, want ik vind hem zeer mooi.
U speelt prachtig met licht en schaduwen, dit zorgt voor een mooi contrast.
Zeer goed gedaan, bedankt.
Prettig weekend,
John.

Hi Gerrit
Superb warm light, painting the varied gables in a delightful way. I remember standing in this place admiring during one of my visits to your city. I also could not help but notice at the distortion/tilts of the houses...almost as if opening out like a book. Good work!

Hello Gerrit,
Another fine example of a mix between the dutch architecture, the canals and bridges and the trees bordering the streets.
The low light hitting the facades creates a beautiful soft atmosphere.
Cheers.
