Summer - Autumn - Winter?

I haven't posted here for a while, but I have still been taking photographs, walking and writing. In the meantime we've gone from summer to autumn, back to late summer, onto autumn again, and we might soon be headed for winter, if the weather forecasts are right.

Before the winter chill descends, here are some photographs taken during the summer - autumn shuffle in this eastern corner of Britain.

A Tourist in Amsterdam

This year for my holiday I went to Amsterdam. As per my previous post, this is a place I've been meaning to see for a long time, but somehow never got around to it. Silly me.

Taking the Eurostar, I travelled through England, France, Belgium and the Netherlands, eventually ending up in Amsterdam. It's a lovely, lovely city. 

I took well over two hundred photos on my SLR and my phone camera (I had a bad experience with an SLR many years ago in China, and ever after I've not been comfortable relying on just one piece of photo-taking equipment) and as much as I love them all, and the fantastic holiday they represent, you will not want to see all of them. Trust me.

I've narrowed it down to about fifty eight photographs, mostly taken on my SLR, but with a few phone pics thrown in for good measure. That's over double the number of photographs I aim for in a blogpost. Sorry. Did I mention that I found Amsterdam to be a really lovely city?
