Protest against the German prudish § 118 'Misdemeanours – Offence in public' after a bralessly sunbathing woman got a penalty, but not her sunbathing male neighbours. Unbelievable in the year 2021!
That's why all the protesting women showed their nipples, but all protesting men had to cover their nipples by a bra, a belt or two stickers.
Another image from my recent shoot with Chad Duell. Our light is a medium deep Octa at 45 degrees. It is feathered in front of him, but still provides a bit of light on the light gray background. #duelly #octa #canon5dmarkiii #paulcbuffeinstein #generalhospital #deepocta

I've come here to look for my friend Wojofoto who is a street artist. But he wasn't there at the time. So perhaps better luck next time.
Located at Spuisstraat 199, I think this is a place for freelance artists to express themselves. A number of consecutive shops fronts have been perpetually turned into giant mural space for street artists. I suspect the graffiti scene changes everyday, whenever someone feels like to paint something on top of what's there before.

After buying a Dutch SIM card for my mobile phone near Munttoren, I pressed on with the many agendas I had on the first day in Amsterdam. I wanted to visit a friend who is a graffiti artist on Spuisstraat, visit a vintage jewellery shop on Singel, buy stamps from PostNL, and buy a couple of souvenirs on Raadhuisstraat.
This being my second visit to the Netherlands, I know Amsterdam a little, and all these places are close together.

These images were taken during the fourth week of July, 2016.
And we're back to the Rehills/Slang section -- between La Vallee and Rivervale.
Where previously this area was an organised structure of vast earth mounds, which ebbed and flowed with the removal of material, saw the import and removal of enormous mounds of stone material, and emerged as a relatively levelled piece of ground -- we saw the arrival of a fleet of 4-axle trucks bearing fresh mounds of stone. This continued for the best part of a week.
And what has been dumped, has to be sorted, and piled, and graded . . . and ultimately moved on to somewhere else!
In fairness to this contractor (Jons Construction) they recognise the need to control the working environment . . . and YES, that involves watering the access route to the disposal zone.
Hold on, are you telling me that it hasn't been raining recently in Ireland/Wicklow/Bray?
Apparently, not enough.
Hence the arrival of our little friend -- the Ruscon 2000 Slurry Tanker, used as a water bowser/sprayer.
For those of us who grew up in or near London and know bits of Cockney Rhyming Slang, the phrase Apples and Pears is mentally translated to Stairs ;o)
