Koninginnedag

Original - Koninginnedag or Queen's Day is a national holiday in the Netherlands. It is yearly held at the 30th of April. On this day the Dutch celebrate their monarchy. I've tried to capture as many elements of Queen's Day and Amsterdam as a location in this panorama as I could, such as the canals of Amsterdam, boats, crowds, trash lying around and of course the orange.

• Weak oppose The technical quality of this image is really good, but I am not sure about the encyclopedic value of this composition, because the orange-colored people are mostly in the background. I think File:Koninginnedag2007.jpg is a better main image for the Koninginnedag article. Rubenescio (talk) 09:10, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
