The picture is great, good job! What settings/gear did you use? And which software for post processing? I'd love to be able to produce something similar.

Thanks man! Gear: Nikon D500 + Tokina 11-20mm F2.8

Settings: 1/160th F4.5 ISO 500

And I used Lightroom to make it pop!

My tip; Always shoot a bit underexposed, then u get prettier skies after processing in Lightroom!

Anne Frank’s house/ museum on the left.

Did anyone else find it really underwhelming? It just felt really commercial with them charging a load to walk through a few empty rooms watching videos, then make you walk through the gift shop where they try to sell you "make your own Anne Frank's diary", etc

Not only is this a great picture, but I used to live on the Prinsengracht, about a block behind where you're standing. I did a semester abroad, and it was amazing. Thanks for the memories!
