Thank you, John, Anirban, Frank, Thomas.

I like a lot Posing, Red carpet, Jakov's fish vision. Here the organ in the redstone church

Excellent photography allround.

If I would have to pick a few of the favorites so far, the way Thomas did, then I would have to say that the photos that left a permanent impression are:

-Thomas' Gear Porn shot. I mean, when you cause an increase in the local concentration of photographers, THAT is bound to happen!
-Franks #8 image from the #4 post in this thread. Red leaves against a red and dark green background
-John's shored boats in post #14
-Kons' top down view on the book shelf in the church, with cables leading to the sheld suggesting wisdom is either drained from those books and led somewhere or comes from outside and is fed into these pages. Very well seen!
-Franks portrait of John in post #24
-As far as narrative value is concerned, John, you win the first price with your photo and commentary in post #43, the bunch of tourists refusing to register the existance of Maastrichts city hall
-Peter, I like all the B&W portraits taken with the Angenieux 35-70, but #2 is my favorite
-Jakov's circular fish eye shots were spectacular as well. My favorite, this one:

-Thomas' detail of Schmeck Brillen as another one of those shots I would have never seen myself. Excellent eye there

John, I see you made good use of that 105mm. Both shots from the Vrijthof and the earlier B&W you showed us are proof of how well this lens can perform in the hands of a capable photographer. I really like how the subtly unsharp background still clearly shows the buildings but seperates them from the main subjects. I also like how you included the classic Vrijthof streetlight in the first shop and the disturbed balance/gravity between the guy on the bike measuring up against the huge steel pavillion. The sandals and cellphone really make that image work, as funny as it may sound to pay attention to such details

Finally, I can join in! Thank you all for a wonderful day, I really enjoyed your company and walking the streets of Maastricht. I hope we meet again soon.
Frank, I really cannot choose which one of your photos I love the most: people, street corners, every photo is really amazing! Maybe those “red” ones made the biggest impression. :-) Your son is really a lovely young boy and he makes great photos! I love the one in the church with a very nicely dressed man walking away.
 Buddy, congratulations on a new family member! I am sorry to hear you had such a tiring day, but I am glad that everything turned out well in the end (although it took a really long time). The shot of Lumi is amazing, she really is a wonderful dog.
John, Harald, your pano photos are really great, as well as Peter’s photos of NG members (except mine, but that is on the model and not the photographer!:-))
Jakov, great fishy as usual! I loved loved loved photo of you and Frank! I am so sorry that Bez could not join us. :-)
Thomas, amazing shots of the church. Nicole, I love your after party photo! Werner – lovely photos of some of the NG members! Bruno – what a great photo of the street sign! I was really enjoying going through all the photos, it is really difficult to choose!
And here is my modest contribution.
