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.

Lucile, I SO love seeing all these bicycles. Wish Canada were like this. I am assuming this is the Netherlands.
Thank you for sharing! 🙂
Carl, yes, it is in Amsterdam , where I live.
It is our daily sight and I’m glad you like it.
Thanks much!
Looks like a great place for bikes. And fun!
It is indeed. And we have plenty because it’s a national preference. Thanks for commenting.
Your photos make me want to dust off my bike and go riding!
I love the black and white shots of lovely Amsterdam: ))
The snow has to go away in NYC so you can go very soon!
Thanks much Lia!
I love your city of cyclists and bicycles! My favorite shots are the 4th, 5th and last but they are all marvelous!
You spoil me with lovely comments. Thanks Lisa.
Lisa, when reading your posts via the reader on my mobile or computer I can never comment there. The only way I can do is when logged via the email I receive from you. I just would you like to know that because sometimes I see your posts but as I’m not home, I cannot comment yet.
Thank you so very much for letting me know Lucile! I will have the folks at ‘JetPack’ (WordPress for self hosted sites) look into it!
Nice street photos Lucile.
Hartelijk bedankt, Cardinal!
Great mono shots, and the cyclists and their machines make such perfect subjects!
Thanks! There are indeed endless opportunities to make photos them.
And being run over by them if it is anything like Brüssel?
i love the hustle and bustle this brings x
Thanks Jussie! You’ll ride one when you are here! xx
The sheer number of bicycles scares me! I’m so unathletic that I’m wary of athletic people, cyclists in particular. They carry weapons, after all… I will use these excellent photos to cope with my phobia, thank you for these…
You won’t be scared of the bikes when you visit Amsterdam. It’s such a common sight that you stop noticing them. You rather be scared of crossing a street and paying attention on bikes, pedestrians, cars and trams… that’s when most tourists make the mistake to underestimate the dynamics involved here. LOL.
I know! That’s what was on my mind when I said that cyclists carry weapons – their bikes. And in Amsterdam, bikes seem to be a weapon of mass destruction. Luckily, I have experience with trams – I assume the traffic rule that the tram has always right of way is the same in Amsterdam?
Well, there are traffic lights for each one of them. The issue is that bikers behave badly and not necessarily follow them creating some extra chaos. Pedestrians do the same and cross with green lights nor use the zebras.
In fact, it’s cars and trams who need to watch carefully to avoid crashing someone. Tourists create a lot of chaos using the cycle paths because they don’t know or don’t follow the traffic signs. Often they just decide to stop and guess what, make a photo, and totally ignore the fact that there are thousand bikes running fast behind them! It can be messy in the city center.
Well, so I’ll get myself a SWAT gear before going to Amsterdam. So that I should be bullet- and traffic-proof… You’re scaring me a little…
lol don’t be scared. I’ll put myself in front of them to save you! Lol
Well, I’m used to it and know the tricks to avoid them.
Thank you! I’ll try not to kill you then.
How kind of you! Thanks.
Wow, look at all those bikes! They’re just beautiful.
Another time I may shoot a few bakfiets for you! 🙂
Please do!
