Amsterdam Session [part two]

Funny how it reminded me of my first post on blogspot, so here's a pre-post cause as you might know I'm quite a lazy ass :)
So I suppose I'll be fullfilling the post whenever I get the photos ready. Guess what? Most of the photos are downloaded in my computer but I've not been editing them execpt some for my deviantart account.
So I've been to Amsterdam for a 4 days long trip with José aka PM, it was cool to get back there and that time I was less lost than I have been the first time :) , we walked a lot, smoked a lot , walked again and did some photography. Concerning photography I 've been an idiot with my cameras, I 've lent him a 35 mm lens and mostly used the 10-22 instead.. .Silly me. Added to that I've wasted a roll of hp5 when I wanted to switch to some Tri-X 400 (I was pretty happy with that, 36 photos wasted in 2 sec). May you enjoy the photos anyway.... So on with the shoots.

Old photos for beginning, those bucks caught my attention , 10 000 $ is not that usual . fake money for a studio shoot I think.
Sarah from the PCSE (the association which owns the lab and the studio)
One of her friend, I don't remember the name...
Yvan testing the new camera of Jean Mi



Yolande ! ;)
aha This is just a test on PS, fucking huge vignetting it sucks but I somehow liked the composition.
Underexposed ... With my screen calibration it's ok though.
Another place another time, in the train to Paris and then Amsterdam.

Paris , Gare du Nord . We had to wait until the departure to Amsterdam, so we had some beers at the bar. it's such a smart way to kill time.

Arrival at the hotel. pretty good room though we were usually woken up by the housewive at 9h am.
Fist night, first coffee shop. We had a burger at the the Leidseplein burger king and then we went to to see the euro game at the Bulldog. Some Jack Herrer here, pretty good.

Next morning , we went to buy some tickets at the GVB (tramways, cars, mero company) so we went to the Damrak.
A shame I didn't dare to get closer to shoot them.


The Magna Plazza, a commercial center. I thought it was a museum first lol.


The bikes, there are so much and eveywhere that you must have a photo of them if you go there.
Ok enough with blogging. To be continued next time I'm motivated, stay tuned ;)
