Antwerp Grote Markt: Morning Drinks

Belgium, Antwerp – August 2022

Impressions of a walk throught Antwerp. Here the Grote Markt, overseen by the Cathedral of Our Lady, where some people enjoy a coffee in the morning sun while others prefer a Belgium beer. This week lens artists challenge #213 is ‘here comes the sun’.

Kathmandu 2004

Nepal, Katmandu – April 2004

This weeks challenge #186 is ‘Low Light’. In black and white light is key for tones in the picture. It needs body (black) but soft greys give it atmosphere. Here I used the darker tones for the main objects of the photo, the couple playing cards, while having a drink and a bite. But all these signs in the background about what to do in Kathmandu add to the atmosphere of the photo.

About the B4 retouch series:
I browsed my archive for pictures to publish. Some of them are partly retouched but most do have scratches, dust and stains.
