Last day of this week, last day of my 7 day's photo challenge! Not only a photo challenge for me, but also a 7 day's, "posting on hive week" challenge! I was very active on Instagram and I have got more that 10K followers there That took me a while to get there but I loved that community! On hive I have almost 1000 folowers so folow me and get met to the 1K 😄
There are a lot of Instagram friends who I met in real life! I have been to so many awesome places because my Instagram friends organised some trip or shoot! Like the cityscape challenge that I posted two day's, it was organised by some one who got us excess on a hi-rise building! There were you normally cant go!
But Instagram isn't what it was any more! The changes they have made are just not wright!
Engagement is down, there are to many video's in my time line and so many advertisements! And I do understand that you want to earn money as a company, but that is going to cost them customers!
But that is not the whole reason I want to post here more often, of coursers it provides me a bit of income but I notice that I continuously keep opening that damn Instagram app! And I know that it isn't bringing me any joy anymore! Just like Facebook! I still want to look there to see what others are doing or something! It almost feels like an addiction! And i want to get rid of that feeling! I want to reed more stories and see more beautiful places and I think this platform is very good for that!
So that's also why I want to be here more often! And this place looks like it's ultimate for meeting people from all over the world! That's always handy if you want to travel a lot!
But now, there needs to be a picture here for the contest! It has to be a long-exposure picture! So here we are, in the city of Nijmegen the Netherlands, on a historic location along the river Waal! In the second world war there were was a lot of fighting here! this was one of the last bridges over the river Waal, still intact, were the Allied forces could cross! They even mad a big movie about it! A bridge to far (IMDb link) staring Sean Connery, Ryan O'Neal and Michael Caine! It's an old movie but a classic! Have you seen it?
I am starting the series backwards 😂 he just uploaded it like this so why not!
If you go out with a bunch of creatives, there is almost alway one who hase got steelwool with them! Or smoke bombs....! 😂 I am not saying who 😉
I couldn't get the whole city and the moon in one frame!
In this one, the moon was better in frame!
There wasnt a great sunset but on the horixon did apear a little colors!
Thank you for watching my pictures and reading my stories!
