Passport or ID-cart on request?

Read the sign above the cat's head; it makes this photo vaguely relevant to my previous post because it says something about forms of ID. But really I just liked this very badly taken picture from my last holiday.
Another brilliant photography effort on my part. This time round I would like to point out that this was a very dimly lit room. It's in the Rembrandt House Museum in Amsterdam and it is a room crammed full of things for him to work from. The Cabinet was Rembrandt's collectibles room. In it, seashells, corals and exotic weapons filled the shelves, along with busts of Roman emperors, Venetian glassware and his most prized possessions - 8,000 art books, which included prints by artists such as Michelangelo, Titian and Raphael. The room is totallyl awe-inspiring and makes you want to start hoarding all those precious little things from the natural world you once lovingly collected from beaches and holidays.
