'Yesteryear Must Have Been Prettier'


Driving around Amsterdam I can only hope that the streets used to be beautiful and the people more refined. A trip around town today did not expose me to the nices places nor the most respectful people. I know goodness is out there; however, sometimes the 'ugly' is overwhelming.

Ironic...and I was talking about seeing beauty yesterday. I love the filter you used here. Are these old factories? Houses?

very cool images.
i do hear you on the ugly.
it can be depressing.
sometimes manners and decency seem to be lost.
but ,it is usually when we hit these lows that someone or something shows us some beauty.
here's hoping you find some today:)

I'm with Bridget, I hear you about the ugly. I often wish I could go back in time for just a day to see what Amsterdam was like in its heyday. It must have been beautiful and filled with hope.

I love your images, you did a good job.
