Hehe, you can't make it more Dutch Wink

#1 is my absolute favourite, great background composition
nr.2 is good too ...

seems like a lot of fun as on koniginnendag Smile
I never experienced carneval in Holland, I lived in A'dam
...so I was a bit to much north in the country ...

Cheers
Tobias

Very colorful photos. You managed to capture the mood brilliantly.

I think that strikes me with few of the photos are the proportion of the head of the person relative to the body seems a bit strange, at least to my eyes. Example, #3, #4, #11. Maybe it is because of the shirts, dress, the hats, or simply because I am not used to see this type of costumes.

great series, very nice clothes, could be used daily
impressive 135mm wide open and precise focus!
what do you mean by 'typical Holland' in #13

Good craftsmanship there, perfect focus and framing. Thanks for sharing.

That's also typical in Holland, peoples have very small heads Laughing ...no, I'm joking of course, I guess I know what you means and it's probably coming from the warm clothes under the carnival's costume Wink

yes the nikkor 2/135 is quite impressive, the only weakness for me is the bokeh which I found not really pleasant, but I have other lenses for that purpose Very Happy ..
And about your question concerning the "typical Holland" from pict 13, well, it was a kind of joke of course Embarassed ...but like you probably know, The Netherlands is quite know as an "open" country, it's means for example that drugs and prostitution are "legal", with some restrictions of course.........but anyway, drugs, prostitution like windmill and tulips are some of the reason why tourists comes visiting Amsterdam and the Netherlands.......even if the country as much more interests than these, that's a fact I'm affraid.....
