...Hard...

...Hard..., originally uploaded by AmsterS@m - The Wicked Reflectah.

Unedited shot a biker in front of a school in Amsterdam, reflected in a puddle. Taken with my Sony HX1. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)

In the last years many Coffeeshops (yes, those Coffeeshops) were shut down by the minions of City Hall because they were located too close to schools...which would imply that students under the legal age of 18 years would stop smoking weed because they'd have to walk more than 500 meters to get their hands on a nice big bag of the finest White Widow or Jack Herrer that money can buy...this might actually apply if they were stoned out of their heads already and too lazy to walk that far, lol. Since the Coffeeshop owners are very strict on checking IDs and making sure that all their visitors are above the legal age, to avoid having their shops shut down for selling to minors, this whole idea does not seem to make much sense, but considering that our Government thinks that we're all retarded kids and that they need to tell us exactly how to behave, this fits neatly into the God-fearing, right-wing book of rules and regulations we're being slapped with for years now, I guess we are all in need of a strong, guiding hand, haha ;-D

My next photo exhibition at the ABC Treehouse, together with the lovely Miss Monyart, is going to start on February 5 and will go on until the end of the month, hope to see you there :)


I've made a wicked reflection movie of this puddle too, check it out on my YouTube page, thank you :)
