_{This photograph of the Erasmusbrug in Rotterdam is one of the timeless gems I have stored on my computer. I've edited this photograph many times, but I always tend to go back to the deep orange colors that scream "Sunset". It is as if I'm watching the Lion King in Europe. To me, this triggered emotion tells me something about our nature, well at least my own since I can only share my own. Somehow, I have the feeling that we always will be connected to the roots of planet Earth, no matter how much we alter it with big fancy buildings. Or perhaps, that's just how I see the world around us.}

_{It might be a spoiler, but I altered this photograph quite a bit. Not just the colors, but the entire canvas became a playground. While this photograph is part of a time-lapse, the water was quite disturbing to me when I edited it. I just knew that was the only thing that needed some chill. Besides cleaning dirt that got on my sensor because I swapped lenses a couple of times this day, I copy/pasted everything above the horizon and tried to mimic the water as if it was completely silent. This is an old technique that has been used for many years by many great Fine Art photographers that sell their art in huge-sized pieces. Sometimes, we artists can feel the need to alter what we see today, in order to restore and reveal how things were before.}

This should be on my wall, right?

I can really see this photograph framed on my wall. Maybe I'm going to print this on special baryta paper. This is a matte type of paper that really deepens colors. I might consider minting this as a 1/1 on Foundation. But should hoard a bit more ETH before doing so, so I can start my "own" collection there as well.

Cheers,
Ruben
