Description
In Haarlem, the statue of Laurens Janszoon Coster and in the back, the bell tower of the Sint-Bavokerk…
Koster could be the first European to invent the movable type printing press, a feat generally ascribed to Gutenberg about a decade after Coster's death.
Either way, he is somewhat of a local "hero", and next to a statue on the Grote Markt his name can be found in many places in the city…

Le cadrage est parfait et ce N§B est parfaitement contrasté... encore un shot plus que réussi Michel!
A striking capture, dear Michel. Very powerful feel to it. I love the postwork here. Hugs and kisses. DiDi.
What a great shot.
Cette photo avec une pause de 2s donne un bel effet (photo de nuit?).
A superb picture!
J'accroche moins sur celle ci, le flou est soit trop, soit pas assez, et me donne plutôt mal au crane comme après avoir abusé de peket... pas top! Aller, se sera pour la prochaine! :)
Yes, I love the way you did this, so much emotion and drama, Outstanding Work!!
Fantastic capture Michel. Great POV. Hugs and kisses my dear friend.
Très belle photo ! Et je ne savais pas qu'il avait inventé l'imprimerie... On doit être prudent avec les faits historiques :-) Bises Virginie
