This really does belong to my “Dutch Bikes” series, though it may not immediately be apparent what it is.

It’s part of a chainguard which has fallen off a bike – the bike tracks going past it suggest its “owner” may have left it behind…

Part of my (small but growing) Look down! category.

(Slightly edited to enhance contrast and make it monochrome, which it practically was already.)

Taken in Amsterdam, Netherlands 2010

About Marjolein Katsma

I have two passions: travel and photography – and these are often combined. Though even in my own city I often have a camera with me!

When I am not actually taking photographs or working on photographs, you may find me busy programming or otherwise working on my websites.

    Geweldig! Je moet het maar zien!!!!

  • Dank voor de fave!

    Het was “subliminal” – ik was er al een stap voorbij voor ik het echt zag, en stapte toen gauw weer terug. :) Wie weet het begin van een (sub)serie…

    Got my vote, too, Marjolein! Always pays to look down.

  • Thank you Lynne!

    I just got up and wondered why my neck hurt – until I realized that I did a lot of looking up yesterday during our excursion to an arts festival in Eindhoven (with good reason), but I still did get one look down shot as well. Can’t help myself. :)
