There are so many places in my Holland trip I found very interesting and a paradise for photographers...

What land is this? You pretty town
Is Delft, with all its wares displayed:
The pride, the market-place, the crown
And centre of the Potter's trade.
by - HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW

No wonder Delft comes in that list :-)
Beautiful canals, architecture, history...every thing is very attarctive.
And yes, we had very nice sunny day.
This was one memorable place in TL Lowlands meet.

This is the Delft main square. I think one of the busy places in that city.
Evening time, beautiful light, nice architecture..... a nice menu for a photographer.
Ofcourse, I accepted that menu, and came with this shot.

TL, enjoy evening @ Delft.
Have a wonderful week.
Vandana

Hi Vandana,

you captured the light very well in this shot, it gives it a nice mood. Sharpness and comp are good . I think it will work well in sepia as well it will give it a 18th century look. Like it.

Grtz Pim

indeed this city has a very nice and interesting 'centrum' :)
nice view

Hi Vandana,
Beautiful capture of this evening light coloring the facades of the houses so nicely! Excellent colors! Bravo! Annie

Hi Vandana
Althogh hardley time the last coupple of days.. I try to critique now and than. This is realy a jewel. Delft is so nice and glad you all agreed on that.
The towers seem to lean a little to the righ.. the hoses to the left, not your photo .. but Delft as it is,, in many ways a Paradise.. but a constant source of PS corrrection.. and you did well leave it as it is..
Good job dear friend..next time we shoot more there :-)
Will be traveling a few days and friday evening see TL friends while having dinner.
Greets and hug from all

Hi Vandana,

A few years ago we had a huge celebration in one of those café's - a student finishing his university-studies in Delft.
It's really lovely out there and more so with the low light.
Very attractive picture - you sure know how to advertise the Netherlands!

Hi Vandana
I am always amazed by all the omnipresence of bicycles in the Netherlands, it is the vélo paradise and no hills to climb.
I love the light in this photo and the way the buildings get hiher and higher to the right to reach that crecendo sith the bell towers of the church. That's a very good composition and an artistic presentation.
Bravo
