Beautiful Day Photography’s Weblog

One of the things I thought was incredible about this city is that MOST of its commuters are on bicycles. Holland is a very “Green” Eco-Friendly country. They recycle more than any other country and you won’t see trash or litter all over the streets like in London or New York. They have ferry’s to take pedestrians and bicycles across the bay and instead of parking lots, you see these HUGE Bicycle parking lots with like 30,000 or more bikes locked up at any given time. I HAD to take a photo to show it. Also you see bikes EVERYWHERE locked up on the side of the road like in this photo with his little cousin Silke.

While roaming the streets we saw a billboard illustrating Parkour (which is the sport where people run up walls and jump off roof tops and travel through an urban city). It started in Paris and they showed a whole fight scene using it in the last James Bond Movie…So we decided to do a fake Parkour Photo shoot. We ended up attracting a lot of attention and had little kids and people joining us LOL!
