Looking up

Walking in Amsterdam, sometimes it's worth to look up. Then you can see some interesting decorations on the facades of the buildings.

I haven't found any information  about the building or the decorations, only it is a a gay bar now.

  1. There are great discoveries if you look up. Me, I keep an eye out for commuters on bicycles.

  2. I love the decorations above the front door and I only imagine how much time was put into making this lovely piece and also love the lamps and front door. NICE :)

  3. When we look up at buildings here in NoVA these days it's to make sure we're not about to be clobbered by an icicle. :-)

  7. Browsing in a bookshop a couple of weeks ago I came across a book called 'Looking up'. It had many interesting photos taken in London of decorative façades, statues and other features that you wouldn't notice if you didn't look up. So maybe you will treat us to some more of the upper levels of Amsterdam.

  8. Dearest Marianne,
    Lovely decorations indeed! Will become quite dangerous when looking 'up' too much!
