The balcony is our favourite part of our apartment, overlooking the Schinkel, Amsterdam’s busy working canal.
Taking the photo above reminded me of how extraordinarily different the Schinkel looks depending on the time of day, the season, the activity and the light.

There’s always something going on. This river cruise monster made it through a seemingly impossible gap.
I love the view from your apartment.
As we do from yours, Debra!
You miss it already, Richard? 😉
Who wouldn’t?
That early morning photo is really marvellous.

Thanks Laura. Yes, I felt I was really lucky that time.
All five shots are marvellous, and I was just told you’ve just been sighted in Marrickville. That’s pretty clever
Well, it could be interesting to post five shots of Marrickville Metro Shopping Centre, though a little less romantic, Jonathan.
Good post Richard – I like your canal!
Beautiful shots and a lovely aspect. Happy New Year.
And the same to you, Steven. Happy riding and writing!
