Hi everyone,

 
I was reading an interesting thread on the SL forum when I stumbled upon a link to this interesting Holland thread  :)
 
I very much appreciate everyone's effort and I thought I might add a few of my own. I've lived in Amsterdam for about 24 years from 1987 to 2011. In the end I hated the city for various reasons and during the last years we lived there, I started to photograph the city in a non-flattering way and I made it into a project called Nou Tabé Dan which I find difficult to translate and I will gladly leave it to my fellow Dutchman to explain what it means  :)
 
The project has been photographed mostly with MP and M7 with various M lenses and different film stocks.
 
Thanks for watching,
 
Peter

So, did you return in 2017?

 

 

Nou... tabé dan

 

Vooruit nou jongens, het is zoo ver;

 

Ik doe het niet voor mijn plezier,

 

Omdat ik mijn poot op papier heb gezet,

 

Ben ik eenmaal Jan Fuselier,

 

Ik ga naar Jan Oost voor een jaar of zes

 

En ik weet niet, waarom ik het dee.

 

Dag meiden, dag jongens, hou je maar haaks;

 

In mijn hart neem ik Mokum mee.

 

 

 

Nou tabé dan, ik groet je, mijn mooi Amsterdam;

 

De kap'tein staat al op de brug;

 

Geef me nog een poot,

 

Aanstonds gaat de boot,

 

Nou tabé, ik kom over zes jaartjes terug!

 

 

 

Dag, moeder, ouwe, ik schrijf je gauw;

 

Als jij mijn portretje beziet,

 

Dan mot je niet huilen, het is beter zo;

 

Je zei toch, ik deugde hier niet.

 

En als ik krepeer in het warme land,

 

Als 'k voorgoed van d'vlakte verdwijn,

 

Mijn laatste gedachte, mijn laatste woord

 

Zal voor jou, ouwe stakker zijn.

 

 

 

Nou tabé dan, ik groet je, mijn mooi Amsterdam;

 

De kap'tein staat al op de brug;

 

Geef me nog een poot,

 

Aanstonds gaat de boot,

 

Nou tabé, ik kom over zes jaartjes terug!

 

For non-Dutch speakers, the quote was taken from this nostalgic ca. 1930 song about a Dutch soldier who leaves for the (then) Dutch East Indies for six years and takes Amsterdam with him in his heart.

Jannes, one of your images a few pages back, reminded me of this one:
