arrival, a photo from Overijssel, North

Photographer's Note

WARNING: ALIEN SPACECRAFT HAS LANDED IN ZWOLLE!

This mysterious egg-shaped dome landed on top of a museum building in the centre of Zwolle, a city in Overijssel in the Netherlands. So far all attempts by our scientists to communicate with any possible life forms on board have been in vain.

This picture shows the view from one of the side streets leading to the museum and was taken at great personal risk. All streets surrounding the vessel have been deserted, since many locals fear the alien spacecraft might be radioactive or might carry unknown extraterrestrial diseases.

Let's hope our scientist quickly find a way to communicate with the life forms on board (if there are any). Otherwise the army is on standby to attack and hopefully destroy any possible kind of threat the aliens might pose, to preserve our way of life.

Hello Benny,
An amusing choice of angle, more creative than the usual view I have seen before (not only by you).
But if the UFO has been there since 2005 they should know by now if it's dangerous. ;-)

Gert

Hello

Quel effet cette coupole en fond tout en rondeur et cette lampe qui de détache de la rue et es rayons quai font briller le vitrage des maisons de la ruelle merveilleux
Bravo et amitié
Nicou

Hello Benny,

I like this even better than your post from yesterday.
This one has a greater atmosphere, a sense of mystery.
The features, some silhouetted, are well placed to create this impression.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

What in the...

Hi Benny

Now this was an interesting view, really special. Your note ofcourse explains what this is, but I am still impressed how it fits in with the surroundings. Your choice of a low POV makes the dome come in straight contrast to the classical architecture.
Very well spotted.

Thanks for sharing.

Hello Benny,
Interesting photo from Zwolle. This is not a foreign alien spaceship, but a new room for a TE server in Europe:) Perfect captured, nice composition, excellent clarity and natural colors.
Fine presentation.
Regards
Piotr

Dag Benny,
spectaculair hoor die bol, achter de oude huizen. De oude straatlantaarn is erg mooi geplaatst.
groet, Gerrit

Hi Bonjour dear Benny

At a glance with this posting and reading your note, I do not understand what you want to appeal, but I finaly understand your intention, hahaha. Your intentional under expsoure setting nicely adds the mysterious atmosphere as you intend.

All the best and have a good day! Takero

Hi Benny
Your note really made me laugh. :-) Thankfully, I had seen your previous upload, otherwise I would really worry about this strange object you captured on camera...
Jokes aside, you seamlessly combined the old and new architecture in one shot. The cloud adds to the atmosphere of suspense you created with your caption and note.
Best wishes
Kasia

Hi Benny
Now we have great detail of the 'giant egg' but I love the ideas of having the antique street lamp high up at the thirds as a strong hooking point. The rest of the keys elements naturally flows effectively into the compo. Impressive capture, Congrats
Best regards

Hi Benny
I don't know what it is about lights and light fixtures and light poles..but man they make for excellent photographic subjects. I have to tell you something...It's one of my personal hopes and dreams to be ALIVE when we finally discover alien life on some distant planet...even if its bacteria etc...my greatest fear is NASA announces this discovery the day after I die! Sweet shot with the alien craft and the light :)
love it
cheers

A great fun view and ready for Spielberg. From this perspective we see how incredibly large that dome is. Perfect point of view for your note premise. GREAT
