Unreal, an empty Amsterdam due to corona isolation.

Unreal, an empty Amsterdam due to corona isolation.

Last week the corona virus had a ‘field day’ because the parks en pubs were filled with fools ignoring the #stayhome advice. This weekend our beloved Amsterdam looks abandoned. Desolate. It almost feels like you’re walking on the set of I Am Legend 2, except no Will Smith to safe us. Amsterdam gives off an apocalyptic vibe. And at the same time our capital city is very, very photogenic. 

Every time I need to run an errand, I bring my camera with me. It has resulted in the photographs below.  (Yes, of course I’m staying 1,5 meters away from everyone I encounter!)
