My fiancée and I were recently in Amsterdam, The Netherlands and were fortunate enough to visit Rembrandt's House. What was even more amazing was that you could wonder around freely and take photos, rooms were not roped off.

That's how I was able to get this closeup shot, security at the house did not seem to mind I was taking a photo inches away from this work area with paints. The tricky part was that flash was not allowed and the light was rather dim.

This is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Amsterdam and is one of the rare locations where you see water right up next to houses. Some call this particular area "Little Venice" because of this.

I took this photo while on vacation in Amsterdam, The Netherlands this past week. The photo was taken at the corner of Leidsegracht & Keizersgracht, a favorite among photographers in Amsterdam. I have one more full day here on Tuesday and the weather is supposed to be perfect so I am hoping to get back out and take some more photos! By the way, I proposed marriage to my girlfriend on this bridge while we were there.
