City Of The Tired Houses

by ozalp - last update: May 3, 2008

How fast the time passed!

A chaos like my memories
Thanks to my friend, I had an opportunity to see Amsterdam. She invited me when her plans were settled. Our Amsterdam trip was unforgettable, just like our former trip to Prague.

Although this small city was extremely cold, I'd preferred to walk it. So I have many photos to arrange, many places to remember. Bringing pieces together will take some time. This page is under construction from now on.
Can you resist this beauty?

Tulips

As a person who adores flowers -actually any kind of plants-, I was amazed by the variety of seeds, flowers, bulbs in Amsterdam. I am not sure how I could save myself to get lost in flower market.
When I returned to Istanbul I realized the side effects of Amsterdam and went for shopping. I have 3 hyacints, 2 amaryllis, many tulips in my balcony now.
Bicycle

Photogenic city

Architecture, history and canales give you the oportunity for good shots. I liked this picture, 'cause it summarize my memories about Amsterdam: Empty streets early in the morning, narrow stairs with small plants and bicycles.

Pros:"Nice streets and small enough to walk"
Cons:"Too cold in winter"
In A Nutshell:"Bulbs, seeds, flowers: These combination can be a reason for a second visit"

 I have a similar shot of a bicycle leaning up against a stunning example of Dutch architecture on my Amsterdam page - such a photographer's dream visiting there !! I dream of other Dutch things too...

 I am a keen gardener and are looking forward to my visit to the Netherlands. I also love your reflection photos, hopefully, the weather will be nice and I will get some good ones too. Great tips, thanks
