Those who have been to Alkmaar will sure recognize this "little" cheese. It is placed in a street not far away from the famous friday-cheese-market.

Enjoy !

Now that's what I call a hunk of cheese! The choice of selected desaturation is very effective. Excellent sharpness, detail and composition - great work!

Hello Joop,
Uitstekend beeld en de presentatie van dat beeld.
Super idee. We bezochten mij vorig jaar Alkmaar en zelfs vrijdag! Ik kon zo te kijken naar de hele proces van verkoop van Brinzei dateert honderd jaar. Mooie traditie. Zelfs heb ik tentoongesteld een foto op mijn galerij.
Een rustig en aangenaam weekend,
Adrian

I have to give a +1 for the selective desaturation, also. The juxtaposition with the bright yellow really makes the photo stand out even as a thumbnail!

Hallo Joop,

Leuke foto, sterke compo.
/de randen om de bovenste kazen hadden wat preciezer gekund.

Hi,Joop!
I visited this city, a lot of years ago but unfortunately I dont bought such kind of cheese.Look verry tasty.

Bonjour Joop,

Leuke opname Joop en voor mij een bekende.
Ik woonde in een dorp vlak bij Alkmaar.
Heb je nog een stukje kaas mee naar huis genomen?
groetjes,
Frieda.

Hi Joop,
This cheese has your name on it! Great use of colour popping against the B&W background. Great DoF and composition. This could be an advertisement for the cheese. TFS

Hi Joop,
Wow, that's not something I see everyday:) Fantastic idea to desaturate the b/g. It really makes the colourful cheese stand out.
