SteemitPhotoChallenge Entry - Long Exposure - Bridge in Rotterdam, Netherlands

in #photography7 years ago

Dear friends! Welcome to my entry for this week’s SteemitPhotoChallenge by @jamtaylor!






I went to Rotterdam in the Netherlands very recently and took this picture of Rotterdam's most famous bridge. It is not exactly a beautiful city, but this particular place had something special about it.

It is a long exposure shot (60 seconds) for the water combined with a shorter one for the city. Like always, I used my love, the Fuji X-T2, this time equipped with my 10-24mm lens and a tripod.

I feel like black and white just suits this foto better than colors. Let me know what you think.


Enjoy!

Great shot! I really like to black and white effect of this one.

Very nicely done in black and white. The glow in the sky is very effective and leads the eye to the bridge. Well done!

I am a keen photographer down in Costa Rica, photographing paradise one day at a time xx

thanks! gonna check your stuff now.

Beautiful, but try its natural color together to clarify the colors with the work of the appropriate lighting of the picture and this does not prevent the picture is so wonderful but just a view .. :)

thank you for your words!

@mrwanderlust I love how the water looks like frosted glass.

Nice and dreamy!!! Great shot as usual!! Wow, @blocktrades vote - nice ;)

crazy right? no idea where that came from, I am happy though ;-)

I'm sure you are!! Well deserved though :D

You did 👍🏿

thanks!

I always look for sharpness in my shots of water to give clear reflections and sparkle, but I love the look you've created with a long exposure, and thats even looking at it on a phone with a cracked screen! Upvoted and followed, but I won't check the rest of your blog till I have the pc on tonight.

Congratulations with your first place :D
