Unedited shot of a Sexshop in Amsterdam, reflected in a puddle. Taken with my Sony HX1. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)
I don't know why, but Sex is something that is always popular with people...well, of course I know why, it's just one of the funnest things to do on this planet, and since we seem to be hardwired to follow a certain biological script, it's what society revolves around, even if it's not always as obvious as this shop catering to our urges and desires. Unfortunately for us guys, women still pretend that they don't care for Sex and that it's the last activity they'd ever want to engage in, even though they like it as least as much as we do, possibly even more, so this is the part that I really don't get about the whole situation...it's confusing, frustrating and utterly unnecessary, we know by now that girls like Pron, they like to knock boots and they love talking about 'It', so maybe we can stop the stoopid games and all have a good shag instead, lol ;-D
Have a sexy day!
I've also shot a wicked reflection movie of this puddle, check it out on my YouTube channel, thank you :)

AmsterSam...
Slightly edited shot of myself in Amsterdam, reflected in a mirror. Taken with my Sony HX1. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)
Another classic AmsterSam self-reflection, just a guy, a reflective surface, and of course a nice, healthy portion of vanity, that causes me to keep hitting that shutter button. I am not doing this because I'm so deeply in love with myself (well, I am, but that's a secret, haha :), but because it helps me to better understand what I look like, as there are not many photos of me, the moment I see a camera staring at me, I'll hide my face behind my own cam, my hand, or if necessary, I'll jump into the nearest puddle, without really knowing why, clearly I like seeing pictures of myself, but I don't like people to take my picture...and this is one of my less confusing features, I'm a weird man. If this was Facebook, and I was in a relationship with myself, I'd have to choose the 'It's complicated' option on my profile page, lol ;-D

Unedited shot of people at the Central Station in Amsterdam reflected in a puddle. Taken with my Sony HX1. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)
Ever since I've been on my road trips in April and June this year, I get a bad case of road-fever every time I see people with bags on their bikes, immediately I want to hop on mine and hit the streets again. Going on vacation by bicycle is a highly addictive thing to do, and I only wish somebody would have told me before I went, that I'll want to go again right away. Since I have to work most of the time, I can't, and that sucks, there's just nothing like being all free on the road, depending on your own strength and stamina, going on and on and on, until your butt is only a mushy mess that screams at you 'STOOOOP!!!', while your legs yell back 'NOOOO, KEEP GOING!', and whoever makes the most noise is the one I'll listen to :)

Unedited shot of a car in Amsterdam, reflected in a puddle. Taken with my Sony HX1. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)
Personally I'm not a big fan of cars, I think they're a rather selfish, expensive and environmentally unsound way of moving around, but that's just me. Since I usually shoot bikers or pedestrians, I figured why not spoil the car lovers for once, I would not want them to feel left out of the wicked, wet puddle fun :)
Have a good start into the fresh week, almost weekend, haha :D

Today the sun is finally showing at the sky again, we are supposed to be entering a phase of tropical heat for the next couple of days, a welcome change from the rainy weeks we've been through this month, and the whole country is sitting on their packed beach-bags, ready to jump into their cars or the next train/bus/metro/bike just to get as quickly as possible to the nearest place to enjoy those promised beautiful days to the max. I sure hope that the weather people didn't fool us again, I could do with some nice sunshine right now :)
Have a relaxed Sunday :)

Unedited shot of the Westerkerk in Amsterdam, reflected in a puddle. Taken with my Sony HX1. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)
One of the many things I like about Amsterdam is that it's full of living history, for example the house where Anne Frank used to live, right behind the Westerkerk that you can see in these shots. Just walking around in the area, looking at the church tower with its bells and clock that Anne used to listen to, and appreciated so much, makes you think about life, and how strange, crazy and cruel it can be, and how you have to enjoy it right here, right now, because you never know what might happen tomorrow. I've never been inside the world famous Anne Frank House, because there's always a reallyreally long line of people waiting to get in, but I feel her vibe when I bike by :)
Have a beautiful, dry, sunny weekend :)

Hey Teachers...
Unedited shot of a Dutch flag and a school bag in Amsterdam. Taken with my Sony HX1.
There is this lovely Dutch tradition of hanging your school bag from those steel hooks, that we use to hoist our furniture into our tiny, narrow houses, when the final exams for school are passed. It's a powerful display of relieve, happiness and accomplishment. I am myself only a few last bureaucratic steps away from starting my studies at the Amsterdam College, so it's gonna be a couple of years before I get to hang my bag&books from my own steel hook, but I'm sure those are gonna be lovely years with lots of new input, new ideas and new friends, so I'm really hoping that I'll get it all sorted out before school starts in September, not that I am not busy enough with working for the man, running my own company and biking around in the best city in the world shooting puddles, but my brain is urging me to fill it up with new stuff, and who am I not to comply with the wishes of the gray matter slushing around in my egg-shaped head? Exactly, that's who :)
Thank God it's Friday, it's Summer, it's raining, yay :D

Even though there are so many boats in the best city in the world, I almost never take pictures of them, maybe because there are so many, but today I wanted to spoil you with some non-reflection shots, not sure if you like them, but it was worth a try, hehe.

I don't know what it is about this specific puddle, but it makes the person in it look really cool and somewhat different from my usual reflection shots, maybe it's the pavement, maybe it's the colors, maybe it's just something in my head, but I like it. Tomorrow will be my last working day for this week, and I'm majorly looking forward to going out there for some serious puddle hunting, the conditions are near perfect and I'm sure I'll manage to shoot some proper pictures...it rained so much in the last weeks that even I am silently praying to the Rain-God to stop doing his thing, a wicked Reflectah only needs so much water, and it would be nice to see the sun again for a change :)

Sometimes when I shoot my puddle pictures, and I notice that the people in the water are going to bang their heads badly on the sidewalk, I want to yell 'Watch out!', but I never do, it just looks too funny when they crash and drown in the puddle...oh, wait, did I say that out loud? What I meant to say was, the moment one of my puddle people smashes into the non-watery areas, I run over to them and whisper soothing things into their wet ears, and I promise to make them stars on the Interwebs, and as you can see, I've kept my word, lol :D

The last days were very rainy and wet, so yesterday I went outside to shoot some puddles, and as always people thought I'm insane because I'm pointing a camera at some water on the ground, and they gave me their best 'What the hell are you doing?' look. I'm sure if they had known that they'll end up on the Interwebs, they would have gotten a proper haircut and put on some make-up before crossing my path, to ensure that they look representable out here in cyberspace, hehehe :)
Have a relaxed Sunday :)

Slightly edited shot of the lovely Miss A taking pictures. Taken with my Sony HX1. No editing besides some added lightness and contrast :)
The lovely Miss A took her camera with her when we went on our bike trip to Germany, because she loves taking pictures, but I still haven't managed to convince her to join Flickr. As you can see in these shots, she's really dedicated to using her cam, and I'm sure I'll finally talk her into creating a free account for herself, until then, we'll have to do without her pictures...if you meet her in the street in Amsterdam, tell her to join, she needs a little push sometimes, hehe :)
Have a wonderful weekend :)

Thank God my weekend started today, this has been my first week back at work after my 3-week Summer vacation and it sucked big time, so I'm really happy, excited and overjoyed that it's over and that I've got 3 relaxing, hopefully sunny, and fun days ahead of me. I know that I sound like a Girlieman, it's been a short week after all, but it was barely bearable and I wish I wouldn't have to go back to the office on Monday, but instead devote my life to shooting people in puddles, something I so much more enjoy doing than sitting at a desk trying to maximize the profits of some shady Moneymasters...why, oh why didn't the Russians win the cold war?! Hahaha, just kidding, I'd hate to have to wait for 10 years for a new bicycle or stand in line for some bananas or something :D

Unedited shot of people reflected in a puddle in Amsterdam. Taken with my Sony HX1. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)
Thank God my weekend started today, this has been my first week back at work after my 3-week Summer vacation and it sucked big time, so I'm really happy, excited and overjoyed that it's over and that I've got 3 relaxing, hopefully sunny, and fun days ahead of me. I know that I sound like a Girlieman, it's been a short week after all, but it was barely bearable and I wish I wouldn't have to go back to the office on Monday, but instead devote my life to shooting people in puddles, something I so much more enjoy doing than sitting at a desk trying to maximize the profits of some shady Moneymasters...why, oh why didn't the Russians win the cold war?! Hahaha, just kidding, I'd hate to have to wait for 10 years for a new bicycle or stand in line for some bananas or something :D
I've made a wicked reflection movie of this puddle too, check it out on my YouTube channel, thank you :)

Welcome...
Unedited shot of a biker reflected in a dirty puddle in Amsterdam. Taken with my Sony HX1. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)
One thing I've noticed once again after returning from my bike trip to Germany is, how much garbage there is floating around in the streets and puddles of the best city in the world. I know it's not fair to compare Amsterdam to Germany, they don't have 200 000 000 stoned, relaxed, happy people walking their streets at any given time, leaving a track of cigarette- and joint-butts, paper, bottles and chewing-gum behind them, but still, trying to find a puddle that was not covered with filth seemed an impossible task, while I had no problems at all to find awesome, clean and very usable wet spots in the streets of our neighbor country. Oh well, I guess you can't have it all :)
I've also shot a wicked reflection movie of this puddle, check it out on my YouTube channel, thank you :)

Unedited shot of people in Amsterdam, reflected in a puddle. Taken with my Sony HX1. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)
Yesterday was my first day at work after 3 weeks of wonderful, relaxed, sunny, lovely vacation, and I did not like it one bit. The only good thing about it was when the day was over and I was allowed to go home again...now I'm wondering if I simply need another job, or if this is the typical vacation hangover, either way, it sucked big time and I don't want to have to go again today...Muuuuum, please?! Can I stay home??? Pleeeeeease!!! Guess not, lol :D
The one thing that keeps me going is the thought that my weekend starts again tomorrow at 17:00 sharp, but that still means I need to spend 16 more hours being productive to fatten the wallet of other people, sigh...

I like that statue of the iron Lady, her name is Wilhelmina and she used to be the Queen of the Netherlands and if she only did her job half as good as she looks riding on her horse, I'm sure this was a happy country at that time. Too bad that she didn't decide back then that work was evil and that everybody could have a happy life without a job, because today I have to go back to the office, after 3 weeks of vacation, and I can hear this loud voice screaming inside my head 'Noooooooooooooo! I don't want to goooooo!!! Iron Lady, why have you forsaken me?', hahaha :D
Almost weekend!

Today is my last vacation day and I'm not really looking forward to going back to work tomorrow. I wish being on vacation was a well-paid job and I could spend my time doing nothing useful but drink coffee, smoke and enjoy life without being a slave for somebody else's money-making ambitions. Since this is not very likely to happen, I guess I'll have to hypnotize myself into believing that it's for a good cause, sigh. If you are a rich, attractive, single lady, call me, and get me out of the Matrix, thank you very much, hahaha :D

Unedited shot of people at the giant 'I Amsterdam' letters in Amsterdam, reflected in a puddle. Taken with my Sony HX1. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)
I just love those giant "I Amsterdam" letters outside the Rijksmuseum, they look really fancy in a puddle, and there are always millions of tourists around who pose inside of them for their vacation shots, making them easy targets for my wicked reflections. The only disadvantage is that I am also an easy target for their own pictures, so there are probably as many photos of me sitting next to a puddle besides the letters, as there are photos of the letters themselves. I guess that's alright though, since I am some kind of a tourist attraction myself, lol :D
Have a relaxed Sunday :)
