Challenge 433: The horse and cart
Another shot from my recent trip to Amsterdam, featuring a rather fine horse and cart in front of the royal palace. But there's just too much here that spoils the scene: the modern bicycle, the wheel of the moped, the builders' hoarding, the plastic water bottles - and the nasty low-energy bulb in the street light.

Can you restore this scene to its historic glory? I know some of you will take the opportunity of all those visible light sources to turn it into a night scene, but if you do, be careful how you treat the shadow of the horse and cart from the street lamp - it's a tricky angle.

High res is here.

Sorry, I haven't been around for a bit - life kind of took over. Here's mine. I had to compress it a lot, so I hope I haven't killed it!
