Many have asked about the Header image above, which I named 'Eerie Genny'. It was originally shot with film [taken on the shore of the Genesee River near the Univ. of Rochester]. During the darkroom development, I flashed a light above the tray. The process, known as 'solarization', produces eerie, ghostlike effects; some have mistaken this image as an infra-red photo. Some 35+ years later, I scanned and digitized the print, and did a little modern day editing, and, voila.

Grand Circle River Tour 1: Amsterdam 1 [Sky Watch Friday]

After a hiatus of several months, I am ready to start posting images again. Today’s shots were made during a river cruise with Grand Circle. The trip encompassed cities on the Rhein [Rhine], Main and Donau [Danube] and through the Rhein-Main-Donau Canal. We arrived in Amsterdam on Sept. 24, several days ahead of the official tour start [we wanted some time on our own as well as get a head start on recovering from jet lag. Our hotel, Hotel Alexander, was well situated and we started out walking [after storing our luggage].
Amsterdam is a city of canals, bicycles, flowers, interesting architecture, and lots of people.  Here is a sampling of of what we saw in the first few days.
