That relotted cathedral is amazing!

[jmsepe 2,040]

Nice new entry. I like how much effort you are placing in your work.

[NielsC007 499]

Amazing detail, looks very familiar! 

[cmdp123789 710]

Spectacular.. Wouldn't expect less from you lol! I really like the feeling I get from every picture, I really don't want it to end... It's addictive!! Are those canals personal? Or are those open for everybody?

Anyways, looking forward to that financial district my friend!

What are those people doing outside in the rain? They must be from Seattle, where people aren't afraid of the rain...

# A morning at the office - Bassen - The Netherlands

 

 

• Every morning the business districts of the city come alive. Workers turn to their jobs to perform their tasks and duties. these images were taken one morning in January •

 

 

• Water is always present in Bassen. When this business area was built not could it be otherwise, the water had to be present, not only for the visual aspect,

it's built on a major river transportation network that connects Bassen with the North Sea •

 

 

• The environment of glass and concrete offices combined with the reflections of water creates a harmony inherent in this business area. The boats, people, trees, gulls, and skyscrapers, make this place a favorite for locals  •

Awesome lotting. D:

[NielsC007 499]

Somebody went mad with Ill Tonkso's BATs! Great work! 

[cmdp123789 710]

Great job!! I enjoyed it a lot! you know I love every update from you =) And I liked the way you placed the buildings to make them look like the base was into the canal.. very clever 

[BLANKBLANK 4,414]

In the first picture what is that large building to the bottom left? It looks so awesome! Great entry by the way.

[Schulmanator 5,813]

Delightful new pix. A great place to take a trip

[jmsepe 2,040]

That is one beautiful scene. Thanks for sharing your work. It is great. 

[TekindusT 3,809]

Awesome, awesome, awesome!! It's always difficult to see a CBD which is not just a bunch of skyscrapers piled up on the same areas (as my CBDs).

 

(Although as an engineer, I have several doubts on surrounding such a tall and narrow building of water. You better have some deep-as-hell foundations there).

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

Yeah, I'm gonna echo everyone else's sentiments as well: those were simply magnificent, with incredibly creative lotting.  Since I'm not an engineer, I appreciate the artistry of your work (although for safety's sake, please tell us those things' foundations are planted firmly in the Earth's core).

[Mymyjp 1,052]

I never cease to be amazed by the talent in this community. Your pictures are absolutely beautiful..very peaceful as well. I share Ln X's sentiment about the building who seems to have the Radio-Canada logo (bottom left building in first picture)...it is a very nice building.

 

Thank you for sharing your talent with us. Very enjoyable.

[slickbg56 778]

Outstanding!

# Anne Frank Huis - [ The Anne Frank House ] 

 

 

• The story of Anne Frank could be the story of millions of children, the story of all people in Europe during the Second world war, the story of how a young person dies, another sad story, could be just one more...but in the hearts of many people these people are not just one more. Anne Frank represents the sadness of war, the sadness of the human mind, but also the power of a young life, her young and pure life • 

 

 

• The Anne Frank House is located on the Prinsengracht [ 263-265 ], was built by Dirk van Delft in 1635. The canal-side facade dates from a renovation of 1740. On 1 December 1940 Anne's father Otto Frank moved the offices of the spice and gelling companies he worked for, Opekta and Pectacon, from an address on Singel canal to Prinsengracht 263 •

 

 

• The ground floor consisted of three sections; the front was the goods and dispatch entrance, behind it in the middle section were the spice mills, and at the rear, which was the ground floor of the annex, was the warehouse where the goods were packed for distribution. On the first floor above were the offices of Frank's employees; Miep Gies, Bep Voskuijl and Johannes Kleiman in the front office; Victor Kugler in the middle; with Otto Frank in the rear office above the warehouse and below the floors which would later hide him and his family for two years until their betrayal to the Nazi authorities •

 

 

• From this house, Anne Frank goes to Westerbork camp, from there She goes to Auschwitz, One month later she with her sister Margot Frank were sent to Bergen-Belsen, where they died of typhoid fever in March 1945, shortly before release. When her father Otto Frank returned to the house of Amsterdam Miet gave him the diary of Anne Frank, the diary of his daughter. This diary was finally published and translated into over 67 languages. The house on the Prinsengracht and the secret annex are today a museum and landmark •

 

 

• The museum we relive those moments of anguish, When Anne Frank wrote her world famous diary in occupied Holland, I can only recomend you to visit this museum and that you may know the story of this girl, a pride of the Dutch and the rest of the world •

[Forsma7 1,325]

wow its really looks like real one! A Dutch city!

[TekindusT 3,809]

I feel the sudden need of booking a flight to Amsterdam. Right now! And it has nothing to do with the coffee shops!

[Huston 5,800]

Even now, I'm still marvelling at your work on your dutch city

[tonyr 926]

Beautiful work!

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

Fabulous!  It looks so fabulous!

[Schulmanator 5,813]

Lovely! So very nicely done!

[TakemeThere 5,834]

Wow... you did an amazing job recreating a city in the Netherlands, feels like I'm actually there

[SylvioJ 388]

Absurdly stunning! The level of detail in the pictures is amazing, as well as photo editing, and the overall atmosphere takes the game to a different level.
