Over..., originally uploaded by AmsterSam - The Wicked Reflectah.

Unedited shot of bikers in Amsterdam, reflected in a puddle. Taken with my Sony HX1. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)

Since the beginning of the year I, together with the rest of the country, have been looking forward to Queensday, the biggest party in the world, usually we have nice weather on that very special day, but this year it looks as if the ongoing storm and rain will force us all to stay home instead of going out there as a 16 million people strong mob, dressed in Orange, drinking, smoking and doing whatever is needed to take things just that tiny bit too far, over the edge, into unknown territory, while acting like children who have the whole house to themselves when the parents are away for the weekend. And all that is needed to bring this awesome event and experience to a grinding halt is some stoopid rain! The really sad part about this is that we're already celebrating the birthday of the deceased mum, Juliana, of our current Queen, Beatrix, to avoid weather issues, because she (Juliana) was born on April 30, while Bea saw the light of this world in January, a predictably unpleasant period of the year, but it seems that this time even such tricks won't help, sigh :)

I've made a movie of the people in this puddle too, check it out on my YouTube channel, thank you :)

Queensday 2011 - Walk It Off

Unedited shot of people celebrating Queensday in Amsterdam last year. Taken with my Sony HX1.

Next Monday, April the 30st, we are celebrating Queensday again, our yearly anything-goes, all-out, biggest-party-in-the-world event, a massive public display of our worshiping of the Dutch Royal Family alcohol, drugs and half-naked chicks skimpily dressed in orange things. If you have never experienced a Queensday in Amsterdam, you can't claim to have lived a full live, this is something you need to see to believe! Unfortunately, this year it looks like it might be a cold, windy and rainy QD, something I can't even begin to imagine, everybody has been looking forward to this Mega-party from Christmas on, and it would suck big time if we all would have to stay home and actually think about the Queen and her family, instead of stumbling through the streets of the best city in the world totally intoxicated, looking for an orange lady to make drunken love to, lol ;D

Here are my movies from the Queensday celebrations of the last years, check them out on my YouTube channel, thank you: QD Movies :)

Random shot of a Hen party group in Amsterdam. Taken with my HTC Desire using the Camera360 Android app.

It's Friday, yay!!! For the typical Hen party participant in Amsterdam it doesn't matter what day of the week it is, for them every day is a special day, and they spend their time maximizing their fun by experiencing all the sin and wickedness the best city in the world has to offer to those who are ready, willing and able to delve into the dark depths of sticky pleasures that can be had in good old Amsterdam...if you don't loose your wallet in that whirlwind of a wild adventure that is, no cash, no service, hehehe :)

Thank God it's Friday!!!

Cry...


Cry..., originally uploaded by AmsterSam - The Wicked Reflectah.

Slightly edited shot of a girl in Amsterdam. Taken with my Sony HX1.

Sometimes when I try to secretly shoot somebody, they notice me waving my camera in their general direction and they might panic (hey, having a wicked Reflectah pointing his cam at you can be a somewhat disturbing experience!), and some even go as far as calling the cops, like the lady in these pictures. Once she realized that she might end up in a puddle, being wickedly reflected on, she grabbed her mobile and started dialing 911 112, hysterically screaming at the emergency services people to come and rescue her, crying, sobbing and ululating all over the place. Of course by the time her fingers hit the '1' on the dialpad the first time, I had already hopped on my trusty bicycle and was rapidly riding into the sunset, only to search for less attentive victims, or at least a fool without a mobile phone, lol :D

Quick...

Random puddle reflection shot in Amsterdam. Taken with my HTC Desire using the Camera360 Android app. No editing or magic tricks besides whatever that app did to the picture, no Photoshop :)

I've bitched and complained about this already a lot in the last 3 months, I am currently working 5 instead of my usual 4 days, and this is taking away all the time I usually reserve for shooting pictures and movies, so I have to improvise and take any chance I get to be able to create some photos on my way to the office, or the supermarket, or wherever it is I'm going. This is no fun, and the quality and quantity of my creative output is diminishing on a daily basis, something I don't appreciate and that I intend to reverse as soon as possible. Until then, these quick snap shots will have to do, I hope you're not too upset that you're having to look at these not-so-wicked reflections, lol :D

Stop In...

Random Lovey-Dovey shot in Amsterdam. Taken with my HTC Desire using the Camera360 Android app.

Even though some people confuse Love with sex or simple affection, everybody knows deep down inside that it is what really matters and makes this planet go round. All our actions are geared towards attracting attention and eventually positive feelings, possibly resulting in love, it's what it's all about, our striving for better jobs, bigger houses, cars, boobs and penises is simply a race to get as many people as possible to like and love us, weird but true! So the next time you encounter somebody who seems to behave in less than desirable ways towards their next men/women, keep in mind, they're doing it all for love, or rather out of spite because of their inability to experience sincere, soft and soothing feelings through interaction with their fellow humans...instead of cursing them, give them a hug (if you dare, lol :))), tell them something nice, show them that love is all around and will be theirs to enjoy and experience, if only they let it :)

I know, I'm a tree-hugging hippie romantic, but that's just how I roll, lol :D

Unedited shot of a biker reflected in a puddle in Amsterdam. Taken with my Sony HX1. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)


It's Monday again, and I've been working so much lately, that I've started seeing things double! That can't be a good sign...everywhere I look, I see double the people, double the bikes and double the puddles! Don't let this happen to you, don't work too much, take regular breaks, enjoy your time off, rest and relax in your weekends, don't be like me, walking around with a horrified stare, trying to understand which part of the double-vision is reality and which one is the reflection, stumbling through the streets all confused and with teary eyes, unable to get a grip on the situation at hand! If you see a seemingly lost wicked Reflectah wandering the streets of the best city in the world aimlessly, that would be me, please give me a push towards the nearest bar for a relaxing drink and a well-deserved time out from the grind, thank you :D

P.s. If you see 2 bikers in these pictures, you should arrange an appointment with your doctor, because you've been working too much too, hahaha ;-P


I've made a movie of this wicked puddle too, check it out on my YouTube channel, thank you :)

Yesterday I went to the city center to do some serious shopping, when I was done I was packed like a camel with shoeboxes and bags, so the natural thing to do next was to have my good friend, the lovely Miss E, call me and meet up for a relaxing coffee to celebrate my successful purchases. We had just sat down when the sun decided to honor us with a visit, and we spend some quality time hanging out in the warm glow of a perfect Spring day, gossiping about the tourists around us, discussing our plans for the time to come and other mindless chatter that helped us to ease away another lovely day in the best city in the world with lightness in our hearts and greatness on our minds...thank you Miss E, that was exactly what I needed :)

Unedited shot of people in Amsterdam reflected in a puddle. Taken with my Sony HX1. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)

In the last week I've finally managed to take some wicked reflection pictures again, for weeks and weeks I did not find the time, energy and perfect puddle conditions to do so, and it did not feel good having to pass by any wet spot I've encountered without shooting it, due to time-restrictions and a very stressful work-situation. Luckily there was the Easter weekend, that gave me an extra day to get things done, and I am still enjoying the benefits of those valuable, additional 24 hours of time at my disposition. Just another couple of weeks and I should be able to go back to my 4 day week at the office, that will allow me to dedicate 3 days each week to my pictures and movies, and I am so looking forward to focusing on being the wicked Reflectah again, instead of having to waste all my waking hours to make some faceless CEO rich who resides in some city far away, it just doesn't seem right...earn your own fortune faceless CEO, and let me be, hahaha :D

Have a wicked weekend :)

I've made a wicked reflection movie of this puddle too, check it out on my YouTube channel, thank you :)

Thank...

Advertising poster in Amsterdam. Taken with my HTC Desire using the Camera360 Android app.

It's Friday, the holy day of the working week, just a few more hours and we're free for a couple of days to finally do the things we like, yay! Soon I will hopefully get my regular free Friday back, a pleasure and luxury that I've had to miss for almost 3 months now, and that I know I am going to appreciate and love even so much more because I wasn't able to do enjoy it for such a long time...and yes, I know I'm a Girlieman, most of you work 5 days a week all your life and never cry about it on the Interwebs like I do, but yeah, that's just me, hehehe. I will cherish and treasure every minute of every one of those special days as if they were made out of gold, which in a way they are, since freely available spare time is such a luxury these days that only a chosen few of us can afford them, so eat your heart our Warren Buffet, hahaha :D

Thank God it's Friday!!!

Babes...

Slightly edited shot of a girl on her bike in Amsterdam. Taken with my Sony HX1.

Just what is it about bikes that they make girls look even prettier and nicer than they already do? Maybe it's the faint hint at their early years when they liked riding horses, maybe it's the sportiness of it, or simply the fact that, well, it looks good, hehe. Whatever it is, I can never get enough of shooting girls off on their bikes, and luckily in Amsterdam there is no shortage of that awesome combination, lol :)

Have a great day, almost weekend!

Sex...


Sex..., originally uploaded by AmsterSam - The Wicked Reflectah.

A couple in a bath-tub inside a shop in Amsterdam. Taken with my Sony HX1.


Last weekend I walked into a shop and was welcomed by a Bikini Girl and a couple in a bath-tub, a refreshing sight for my sore eyes after floating through the Kalverstraat with trillions of other shoppers, but of course it wasn't an undivided pleasure, it was a bit of an awkward situation to see these poor kids (well, the girls, not the guy, hehe :) being stared at and nearly deafened by the sound of the camera shutters going off all around her...oh, wait, that was me, sorry, my bad, lol ;D

Just to make it clear, I do not condone the (ab)use of candidly clad young people to further the despicable goals of modern Capitalism, but seemingly men and women (yes, women too, there was a near naked dude in that tub!) are dogs, and yes, appealing to our lowest instincts somehow makes us wish to purchase things, that's just the way Mother Nature made us, so clearly somebody had something in mind when we were created as the brainless, schlong-, and punani-driven and dog'ish dudes and dudettes that we are, hahaha :D

Puddle...

Unedited shot of people reflected in a puddle in Amsterdam. Taken with my Sony HX1. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)

Privacy is a valuable commodity these days, even though most of us don't seem to pay much attention or thought to the information we share about ourselves online (Facebook!!!), but I personally am very aware of the issues associated with this topic, so I have started a 'Puddle People Privacy Protection Program', it's called 'P5' and it allows people who were unfortunate enough to walk into my wicked puddle shots without knowing and wanting to do so, to submit an online form requesting their faces to be made unrecognizable, not unlike the similar service for Google Streetview. My team of highly skilled Helper-Monkeys then throws a digital blanket over the images before publishing them on the Interwebs, resulting in images like those I've posted today, clearly a win-win situation, art for the masses, privacy for the poor puddle people :D




I've made a movie of the people in this puddle too, check it out on my YouTube channel, thank you :)
