Amsterdam The view from the cafe, Saturday afternoon.

Like sipping java on the edge of the canal. :-)

You've got a right to be proud of this one. It's lovely indeed. Thanks for sharing.
Does this mean Wren will be adventuring in Amsterdam soon?
Best wishes,
Jean Marie

Not in the cards at the moment, sorry. However, it does play a sommat large part in another character's backstory...

Whoa, that's gorgeous!

Beautiful! Wanna go...

Very beautiful. It makes me want to know when sitting there in that moment what the air would have felt like against my skin, and what scents there were to tease my nostrils.

Kada.

Well, being that it was taken from a cafe in Amsterdam... I can almost be certain what kind of scents ... ;)

Good shot! And very right to share. Maastricht was by far my favorite spot in the Nederlands...Amsterdam a very close running second.

Nah. It was a cafe, not a coffeeshop. The only scent we were inhaling was that of actual coffee...

(and dampness, as it had been raining earlier)

[lagilman]

from you, high praise indeed, ma'am.

Just lovely.

wow, that's postcard-lovely!

I especially like the interesting shadows from the buildings onto the sunny side.

I have ONE pic from my 2nd trip to Italy that is like the best picture I've ever taken... gonna have to dig that out now and look upon it admiringly. ;)

Many of my best photos play with shadows and light. I'm sure this shocks, I say shocks some of you...

That works too. I was just being nosy--er, curious how you planned to use your experiences. :-) Best wishes, Jean Marie

I added it to my screensaver. I love pictures, so long as someone else takes them and prints them.

This is not only beautiful but evocative and mysterious.

I confess, however, that I actually took the photo in this icon. Yes, it was a miracle.

well, this (and other related) photos were in support of one scene in a story that's still fermenting in my brain. I know when it happens, I know why it hapens, I just don't know where it goes in the story (or if it will even make the story at all -- a lot of writing involves researching stuff so the writer and the character know about it, but the reader never does...)
