...Smokin Indo

Unedited puddle reflection of Amsterdam. Taken with a Sony HX200V. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)


I have this dark suspicion that people around the world think that all we ever do in good old Amsterdam is rollin down the street smokin indo, sippin on gin and juice, and that is very far from the reality that we experience in the best city in the world every day, the only folks actually doing that are our visitors who can't believe their luck when they find out that, yes, it's OK to get high while biking around bumping into cards, pedestrians, other bikers, or if you're really unlucky, a tram or taxi, both ruthless species of transportation vehicles that stop for nobody, not even the toked-up, puffing&passing tourists, so beware, get high, but don't get too high (unless you're Snoop Motherf*cking D-O-Double-G, lol), or it might be the last thing you'll ever do :D

These...

Unedited window reflection of the American Apparel shop in Amsterdam. Taken with a Sony HX200V. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)


Sex sells, so it only makes sense that our world is plastered with images of scantily clad people (mostly women) that try to make us consume products we don't need and that destroy the planet during their manufacturing process and after they've been disposed off to rot away in a landfill somewhere, but as long as we get to see sexiness while we're slowly killing our world, it's all good...the last thing we'll ever see will probably be some half-naked lady as the world explodes, burning one last hot image on our retinas as they shrink into our heads and our brains detonate with a final 'Boom'...could be worse :)

La Vie...

Slighty edited window reflection of the 'Bellrose' shop in Amsterdam. Taken with a Sony HX200V. No editing besides some fiddling with contrast and colors, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)


Life is good, or as they say in French, la langue de l'amour, 'La vie est belle', and that's true. Of course there are situations where things seem unpleasant or weird, but in general, being alive is a reason to be happy, it took Evolution/God gazillions of years/7 days to create the magnitude of unimaginable, fascinating and confusing creatures that populate this planet, and you, yes you, are the result of a trillion unexpected and rather unreasonable coincidences, encounters and actions that you could not reproduce on this scale and with the required precision in another gazillion years/7 days, no matter how hard you tried, so don't worry, be happy, enjoy the ride :)
