Is there a better way to arrive home and find a view like that?
I used a Olympus E-M10 Focal length: 16mm Exposure: 1/200 at f/6.3 ISO 200. No editing.
I’m sharing the sunset at the Eastern harbor area of Amsterdam and including it at the Photo 101 Rehab.
The Clinic – Photo101 Rehab is an event for everyone who loves photography, and wants to join a community of like-minded people, who are also fun to connect with. All you need to bring is your passion. Just so you know, mine is to shoot portraits and street photography.
Some of you asked me if only photographers can join the Photo Rehab… Of course not. Hobbyists, amateurs, pro-shooters, or just curious about photography, anyone is welcome. What are you waiting for? Check here to learn how it works.
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.

I’ll have to look at this. For some reason, I had a completely different idea of what it was. 🙂 Perfectly lovely photo, Lucile!

Stunning shot! One of my first digital cameras was an Olympus – sadly, it died suddenly, and I was distraught. It took some of the best photos ever.

How sad that your Olympus died. I never had one but when looking for a mirrors, I got recommendations for the Sony and the Olympus but preferred the later for the viewfinder. It makes amazing shots.

I cannot give you any guarantees; we hardly ever know when we may enjoy good weather…by the way you can make dramatic cloud photos by the bridge!
