Anyone been to the World Press Photo Exhibit at Oude Kerk?

It will still be in the Dam when I am there in June and it is on my radar for something to do.

If any of you have been please comment on what you thought and if you think it is worth going to see.

I just missed it this year. I did go last year. I was impressed with some of the photos.
Well worth the eight euro entry fee.

I must thank you FlyByNight because I didn't remember about the World Press Photo Exhibit at Oude Kerk until I saw the link on the Who's in Town page.
The photo that won the first prize is just amazing.
Me and my girlfriend will be in town (staying at Voyagers) in a few days (May 15th - 19th) and we'll make sure to check the Exhibit.

caught the past 3 years of them. They can vary in style alot from year to year, depending upon the selection committee. Worth the entry fee, but it ain't a light show.

I went in 2010, it was excellent. Will definitely have a look this year, now I have a museum card
