Project 365 - Day 3

Well, here's my picture for today. A house is being built next to mine, so I took the opportunity to shoot the crane from my garden. The sun was setting down, so the sky's quite dark but it's not the night yet. I tried to use the crane as a geometric divider for my picture.

Project 365 - Day 2

 Here's my second picture of my project 365. It's another minimal/abstract shot, this time taken in my bathroom. I'm not so happy with it, though I think there's some idea in it, but that's the best shot I took today... Anyway, it gaves me the opportunity to play with the square format, which is a really hard format to use I think. Don't hesitate to leave some comments to tell me what you think about it !

Project 365 - Day 1

So, as the new year begins, I've decided to jump on the train of the project 365. I can hear you wondering what's this all about. It's simple: the goal of the exercice is to take one picture a day during 365 days. Some people take a theme for their project, and some don't. In my case, I won't take any specific theme, my objective is to practice photography in domains I'm not familiar with. But don't worry, I'll still post pictures of urban explorations... ;-)

Well, here's my first picture (taken yesterday, so I may post a second one today). It's been taken in a museum in Brussels, I was trying to get a minimalist/abstract shot. I also put this picture in black and white, which I find is really difficult to achieve, I mean a real beautiful black and white, not just a desaturated picture.

For those interested, my urban exploration pictures are still available on my photography website.

Bärenquell Brauerei

This is an abandoned brewery somewhere in Germany. I recently went for an urbex trip in Germany with a friend. We visited this breewery on our first day. The site is really huge, with lots of building. It's been heavily vandalized, but one can still see the beauty of this place. Some parts of the buildings have been burnt. We've been lucky with the light that day, it was a good beginning for our trip !

Full set on my urbex photography website.

Villa Albert

Abandoned villa somewhere in Belgium. This beautiful house is suprinsingly well preserved, probably because it is partly hidden by the vegetation of the garden. This was a very nice exploration, and it must have been quite a luxury house. The walls are covered with wooden panels that seem to hide a secret. I admit I have searched for the little hidden mechanism to could move one of these panel, but I found nothing.
