Slightly edited shot of a girl parking her bike in Amsterdam reflected in a puddle. Taken with my Sony HX1. No editing besides some added contrast and saturation, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)
Owning a bike in Amsterdam is like carrying a sign with you that says 'Steal my Bike!', so we have armed our beloved steel horses with chains, locks and self-activating flamethrowers to keep those darn Junkies from taking off with them in the dark of the night, not always successfully, as anybody who lives in the best city in the world will be able to confirm. It's just part of the natural life-cycle of a bike, you buy it, a Junkie steals it and you buy it back for 40 euros on the street from that same scum-bag a few days later, only to re-insert it into circulation, ready to be stolen again...unless you use the right kind of lock, like this young lady here, and always remember to lock your bike to something else, or they'll carry it into the next alley and gnaw through the chains :D
Have a great day, almost weekend!
