The Clinic – Photo101 Rehab is an event for everyone who loves photography. Here is photo #7. Check below how it works.
Living in front of a canal in Amsterdam gives me the opportunity to be close to water, an element of nature that I love to watch, for it brings me a peaceful feeling. While having breakfast this morning, I observed the sun discreetly appearing from behind the clouds. The water was almost still and there was very light wind, and that helped forming clouds’ reflections, just as you see it in this picture. I shot it with an iPhone 5.
Here is what ‘The Clinic Photo Rehab is:
This blog hosted ‘The Photo101 Rehab Clinic’ from 04 to 31 December 2014 and featured over 170 photos made by Photobloggers Andy Townend, Mara Eastern, Cardinal Guzman, DesleyJane, Justine, Amy, Teresa, Albert, Terri, Giving Thought, Ellen, Nalinki, Mariangeles, DwayCrafts, Lucy, Terri, Bampa’s Views, PeaceCrafting, Dreaming of Leaving and Project Easier.
As former patients informed me that the withdrawal symptoms remained active, and new patients recognized the same symptoms, The Clinic – Photo Rehab reopened its doors.
You can do a self-examination. If you detect any of the following symptoms, as carefully described by Albert from the blog Passionately Curious, come and join us: “Withdrawal symptoms may include the incessant need to carry your camera everywhere with you, the need to wake up in the wee hours to take photos during the golden hour, and checking up on others you met during the course to see what their newfound knowledge has brought fruit to.”
How to join:
Time: The Clinic is open 24 x 7 until the healing process ends.
Camera: You can use any camera, from DSLR, mirrorless, compact, to smartphones.
Theme: Bring your creativity and photograph a theme of your liking in B&W or Color. With or without edition. We like learning techniques as well, if you want to share it with everyone.
Who can join: Anyone can join; and not only former Photo 101 bloggers. All you need is passion. Passion to speak up through images – or words, if you may want to add your thoughts to it as well – showing what you see and how much that is important to you.
Thanks for joining and enjoy it.

My husband said exactly the same now. I’m very fond of reflections. Another night the wind was almost still and I made several shots of the street lights and bridge reflecting on the water. Really gorgeous.

Lol. You wouldn’t want to be thrown there. It was -1 at that time.
When the wind gets a little stronger it feels much colder. But it was fine today. Xx

First of all, I’m glad the rain has gone and the sun is coming out! But most of all, what an amazing shot you captured! With snow on my mind, at first I thought it was a photo of snow piled up on the side of the road… Then a moment later, I realized they were fluffy white clouds , reflecting upon water…
Superb!!

I’m glad too as I know you love the sun.
Thanks for the comment. It’s true that it may look like snow. I’m happy it isn’t as it would mean very low temps for the canal to freeze!
Have a lovely day, Lia!

Yes you know me:) I love the heat!
Oh a frozen canal? Has it ever happened?
LikeLiked by 1 person
Oh yes, it happened many times. Some canals are shallow. Many are already frozen. The one I live in is deeper and never freezes. Amsterdam hasn’t yet – knock on wood- experienced a hard winter so we have no frozen canals yet. You can check an old post of mine with a frozen canal.
