But at a dinner out with friends at our favorite restaurant, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.seasonsrestaurant.nl\/en\">Seasons<\/a>, last Saturday, we decided to do the cruise on the Sunday. Our friends, Cindy, Blaine and Peter joined us for the hour and a quarter tour.<\/p>\n<p>Seeing the installations from the water certainly yielded a different experience; in particular, the reflections off the water made the installations seem much bigger. Most impressive for me this year is the installation pictured above: <a href=\"https:\/\/amsterdamlightfestival.com\/en\/artworks\/light-bridge\">Lightbridge<\/a>. From the water, Lightbridge fills the eye with moving colour.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Camera: Nikon D7000<br \/>\nLens: Nikon AF-S Nikkor 18-200mm f\/3.5-5.6G DX<br \/>\nFocal Length: 70 mm<br \/>\nExposure: 1\/60 sec at f\/13<br \/>\nISO Speed Rating: ISO 8000<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Hopefully we&#8217;ll get an opportunity to do the walking tour, Illuminade, in January.
