Leiden at night
July 26th, 2008
A not totally legally obtained copy of a dvd containing a short documentary on night photography has inspired me to go out with my camera last night, and capture bits and pieces of Leiden. I walked around for about an hour and a half, and tried to avoid the most common cliche’s. I couldn’t create interesting compositions as I forgot my tripod (that was so stupid) and had to set my camera on whatever was available (like dustbins, bicycles, cars, fences, and tree-trunks). Nevertheless, I think some of the photographs are worth sharing.
Here they are!

Vrouwensteeg, F16, 25s, 100 ISO, Tungsten

Stille Rijn, from the Kippenbrug, F16, 30s

Oude Rijn, J. Vossenbrug, F16, 30s, cropped

Tweelingstraat, F16, 30s, brightness +0.83, Tungsten

Schagensteeg, F11, 25s, Tungsten

Hooglandse Kerkgracht, F22, 30s, brightness +0.83, Tungsten

My name is Marco Hokke. My blog is about the things that interest me and things I might forget if I would not blog them.
