Photographer’s Note
Winter has set in, in Amsterdam. It's been a long time since there was a pack of snow like this in the Netherlands.
This is one of my favorite canals in Amsterdam: Leidsegracht, as seen from the Prinsengracht.

Le noir et blanc accentue la beauté de la photo. Beau cadrage avec un contraste bien contrôlé. Malgré le ciel couvert la luminosité est bonne.
Félicitations et bienvenue sur TE.

Mooi in zwart-wit. Hele goede plek en compositie.ik zou misschien de fiets links er af hebben gelaten en iets meer naar rechts genomen hebben, maar dit is een heel sfeervol Hollands plaatje!!Prachtig.

Not an usual view, indeed....
I like the B&W conversion. It gives the image just the final touch it deserves.

I guess it was my lucky year here in the Netherlands. It’s nice to see so much snow. And better yet that you could capture it in such a beautiful way with this picture. I like the composition with the tree branches embracing the canal and also the b&w. Goedzo :o)

Very good exposure. It is neither too bright nor too dark, in spite of the snowy weather. Well composed also, I love this place. Fine work, Bas.

Super! Nie wiem czemu, ale gdyby nie te pojazdy, to dla mnie kana³ zim± w XIX w. Bardzo mi sie podoba.

This is a lovely shot of Amsterdam in the snow, could be a rarity. Natural with a good atmosphere.
