This is a naval museum in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Like the photo I took of the boat "Amsterdam", I took this photo while on a boat myself! I would have loved to take a frontal shot of this beautiful building but by the time I got my camera ready, my boat had passed the building as much as you see! Unfortunately, I never got a chance to actually visit the museum.

Next time in Amsterdam, please take the time to visit this maritime museum. I'm certain you will be amazed at Dutch naval history...which for a time was a large part of world naval history. The old building cleaned up very well since my visit in 1986.

very pleasing perspective and nice lines. Excellent DOF, backed up by a beautiful sky. Well done.
