Now, these circles are what I am very fond of!
(Do you have dust on your sensor?)

I would love to see a multiple (double) exposure on the first two :)

Its a nice event, visited a few times over the years but rarely succeeded in shooting anything memorable.

Here's one from an earlier edition when I just got My First Sony

Sony a7R with Voigtlander 35/1.2 Nokton, Amsterdam 2013
Cheers,

I love them all!
Hope to get into photo modus after I'm done with the dance show shoots...which kinda wears me out.

Beautiful photos Chris. I especially like the reflection on the river. And, the light circles are beautiful!

That third one is great!
We have to do some shooting together. Until when is the show going on in Amsterdam?

Another vote for the third one!  Great idea.

Very interesting, thanks for sharing. The closest I've seen was a Chinese lantern festival some years ago (still at film era)...
