    Wow! Amazing composition Al!!! Top notch! You got around Europe a lot on your travels! ;o)

  • Thanks Krys. This is just the beginning… we hit seven countries (nine if you include the Vatican and Monaco).

    Amsterdam is so interesting – you’ve captured the ‘feel’ here so well Al. The canals and architecture are unique to Holland. Great shot – love the oval you have created. Liz

  • The canal cruise was a nice bonus. it started to rain as soon as it was over. Our time there was much too short.

    Lovely oval with the reflection, Al. Love how you captured the orangish brick of the buildings at RHS at the center of the oval – where the focal point becomes a picture all its own. Remarkable. I’ve not visited here, but hope to one day.

  • Thanks for that lovely comment Jan. I wish I had months or even years to spend exploring the great cities of Europe.
