There two where taken at the end of the Nederland Schreeuwt Om Cultuur protest this last Saturday. Two photographers on top of a bus shelter clearly enjoying themselves. I was there shooting for the Amsterdams UitBuro but kept these two for myself. The other photos from that day are over at the AUB Flickr page.
