Photographer’s Note

A l'extrême sud de l'île d'Outremeuse à Liège se trouve le parc de la Boverie, bien connu sur TE pour son Mamac (musée d'art moderne et d'art contemporain) construit en 1905 pour l'exposition universelle de Liège et qui est l'un des rares bâtiment construit à l'occasion de cette exposition qui a été conservé...
On se trouve ici à côté du Mamac, le long de la Dérivation (un bras de la Meuse qui entoure l'île d'Outremeuse). La route n'est quasi utilisée que par les membres de l'Union nautique de Liège (avirons, kayaks,...)
J'ai posé l'appareil sur un plot en bois car je n'ai pas de trepier...
Les lumières jaunes-oranage entre les arbres son en fait le quai Mativa, de l'autre côté de la Dérivation.

Hi Christophe,
A well composed and intriguing shot. I really like your low angle view here which captures the gleam on the road and the well seen and textured cobblestones. There are really two scenes here, as the top half of the frame encapsulates the trees and the golden glow of the city. A very artistic, successful shot.

Une ambiance à la Simenon. J'aime les pavés et la lumière sur le goudron. Bonne maîtrise de la lumière.

Hello Christophe,

A very nice night shot. The composition is very good. With the light on the street in the foregound and the silhouttes of the trees in the background. A really great job! Greetings,

Ulf

I see you are experimenting in night photography. A technique that gives amazing results. Well, I like your POV and composition. The light is cleverly placed to the top right and gives a nice angle of light. There is a little flare on the lens but this adds to the composition. Not all flare is bad, and some flare actually enhances a photo. The exposure and focus are nice a precise.

good work.

I have heard of the Mamac- it sounds pretty interesting. I really like this night shot- the light on the street stones is perfect. The color in between the trees has this great orange tone to it but it kind of looks like one of those really cold nights to me (maybe thats just because I happen to be cold at the moment- I always let the temperature go to my head). Well, great job Christophe.

Hi Christophe,
very good frame. good hsarpness all across. I wonder how you got that in f/3.5 - even at 18mm?
the emotion that this picture gives me is lonliness. the warm colors opposing the cold night...
(the flare from the lamp is a bit disturbing, maybe you can clone it out).
Friendly,
Udi.

Hello Christophe,
j'adore l'ambiance de cette image, tu sais ce genre de feeling lorque tu te promenes la nuit et qu'il n'y a personnes dans les environs....brrr...j'ai la chair de poule. Cependant le fait qu'il y a des batiment et cette lumiere, cela rassure quand meme. Une photo bien prise, nette et reelle.
Bien vu
Luan

Very nice night shot. I like how the light reflects off the street and stones. You have positioned light (the lamp) very nicely in the frame. And I like this low point of view. Very interesting.
Merry Christmas,
Maciek
