The Dutch Work horse

Shot outside the Central Station of The Hague, The Netherlands more then 10.000 bicycles wait for their owners to be picked up after a hard working day. Many commuters in The Netherlands take the bicycle to the stations and catch the train or other type of public transport and pick up their friendly work horse a the end of the working day. The site is incredible

In the Objects: seeing the unusual in the usual photo essay.

Also in the The Netherlands off beat photo essay.

    Thanks. I was waiting for someone to arrive from the airport when I saw this scene, as I usually carry a camera or have it handy in the car...it was opportunity I couldn't pass on.
