My entry for this week’s Monochrome Madness as hosted by Leanne Cole. An image of the Maas river and a small part of the Rotterdam harbor industry, which is massive.
Tomorrow at http://leanecole.com.au/blog you can find all the entries for this week’s madness
Tried to create double exposures with a self portrait i took on Sunday. Fun to do, still looking for the perfect fine tuning. But it was nice to see how easy it actually is.. and the final image is a B&W portrait from the same session which i’m quite pleased with
The Kop van Zuid is an area in Rotterdam situated along the Maas river and is developing into a very modern part of the city with large skyscrapers. Took a few images a while back when i was in Rotterdam and made a new edit today. Shot taken from the Erasmus bridge
My entry for this weeks Monochrome Madness, with the special theme triangles and squares. Found this square with a big triangle quite suiting for this theme
With the traffic shooting by, the skyline from Rotterdam is beautifully lit up during the blue hour
Played with an image of the Erasmusbridge which was taken in Rotterdam. This will be my entry for this week´s Monochrome Madness, hosted by Leanne Cole
To me it looks like a bird´s beak
The famous eyecatcher of Rotterdam, the Euromast, has an elevator which brings you up +200 meters in the air while spiraling along the central column. When i first moved upward i was a bit shocked to notice we would turn around the central column. But then i realized that as we were all buckled in our seatbelts, we needed to go round to see the entire cityscape. This is from another time, when we were strolling the city. Took this photo while passing through and found it today. Never edited it before, but i think in this cut out it its actually quite a nice architectural picture..
Wish you a nice weekend in advance!
The infamous Erasmus Bridge in Rotterdam has become the icon of the new skyline. Tried to give it a personal touch.
Used this image (https://pnco.wordpress.com/2014/05/16/de-zwaan/) to create this ‘star’. Really love symmetrical photography 🙂
Rotterdam contains an increasing amount of great architecture and tall buildings. Old and new blend in seemingly without effort. Last year when i visited friends i took quite a lot of pictures and i still enjoy strolling through these photos. This is one of them, which i ‘rediscovered’. It’s a photo of a reflecting window with less reflecting panels alongside of it. This is the result i got from it 🙂
An image from an old Volvo in the remix. Added a bit of vignet and tried to give it a movie look. I’ve posted this car before, but then it was in color. Hope you like the black and white edition 🙂
As i promised yesterday, this post is the original for Abstract Sky. It is a picture of the old warf building for Dutch travelers going to America, hence the name Holland Amerika Lijn (lijn is Dutch for line). It now serves as a hotel and it is very nice indeed to see this old building in between the giant cruise ships and the two towers surrounding this famous building.
Can you recognize the pattern from Abstract Sky? I can’t actually, but it’s probably part of the sky hehe
When i tried to straighten a photograph from the Rotterdam series, this is what Lightroom thought was straight.. I’ll post the photo i used for this one soon!
And this result is actually quite surprising and good 🙂
This area of the city of Rotterdam is called the “Kop van Zuid”, translated in English it is the head of South. A strange and beautiful place where old meets new. I visited this spot together with a friend 1,5 weeks ago.
