This striking photograph captures the underside of a canal bridge at night, dramatically illuminated by turquoise or teal lighting. The canal passes above a roadway on this structure. The concrete structure is supported by a series of massive, uniform pillars that create a powerful sense of depth and a repeating, architectural pattern often referred to as the "Cathedral Under the Bridge". Visual Details Lighting: Bright, artificial teal light washes the curved underside of the bridge deck, casting vibrant, defined arcs against the deep darkness of the night. Composition: The perspective is low, emphasizing the imposing scale and symmetry of the concrete supports and the leading lines they form into the distance. Environment: The ground below appears to be a grassy or slightly wet area, where the bridge's lights create subtle reflections. In the background, faint streetlights and the red and white light trails of passing vehicles provide a sense of movement and an urban context. The overall atmosphere is moody, ethereal, and architectural.
This photo captures the same structure as the previous image, this time lit by orange lighting.

Brussels murals

This image captures the famous Broussaille mural, a highlight of the Brussels' Comic Book Route. The large street art, painted on the side of a building, depicts the characters Broussaille (with the blond hair) and his girlfriend Catherine walking hand-in-hand down the street. The photograph shows a narrow European street lined with traditional, multi-story buildings. The mural dominates the left side of the street, featuring a unique perspective where the painted characters appear to be strolling toward the viewer along a painted street scene that continues into the actual street's perspective. In the background, the spire of a large, historic building, possibly the Brussels Town Hall, can be seen rising above the rooftops.
This image captures a street scene in Brussels, Belgium, featuring a famous mural of the beloved comic character Tintin. The artwork is part of the city's extensive Comic Book Route. The mural is painted on the side of a building on Rue de l'Étuve and depicts the characters Tintin, his dog Snowy, and Captain Haddock descending an actual fire escape. The scene itself is inspired by a panel from the Tintin album The Calculus Affair, created by Belgian artist Hergé.
Smart Wall by the Belgian artistic collective Farm Prod. The mural features a woman with flowing blue hair, her face composed of various small shapes and figures, against a bright orange background.

Mont des Arts, Bruxelles

Photographers: How could I do this better? Aperture was wide open, focus on infinity. Bad decision. Foreground out of focus. Should I stop this down to f/11 or f/16 so I can focus on the first light and have everything behind it in acceptably sharp focus?

Sint-Pieterskerk, Leuven

I'm interested to know whether other pinhole photographers think I should have increased the exposure to preserve more of the shadows in this shot.

I know that reciprocity failure causes the highlights to get more burned in disproportionately. So I just wonder if increasing the exposure would cause highlights to totally saturate.

Bison with bird passengers

Missed the focus. 500mm f/8 reflex lenses not great with dark subjects

If the bison stops what it's doing and looks at you, then you are too close.

Bull bison, Antelope Island UT

Shot with a Canon FTb and Rokinon 80-200mm f/4.5 zoom lens (bargain bin at Acme Camera Co for a few bucks) on Kodak Portra 160.

How's the bokeh?

About 100 yards away and still felt I was too close. Those beasts can move!

American bison (Bison bison), also commonly referred to as a buffalo, standing in dry grass up to its shoulders. The animal pictured appears to be a mature bull due to its large size and prominent hump. He is staring off into the distance, away from the camera.

Plansee, Austria

Does the crop help the composition? Wife's reaction to the photo was "meh". But I thought that improving the balance in the scene might help. What do you think?

Havré framed by arch

I took a bunch of photos of this ruined castle with different cameras that day. The Minolta SLR was a €45 thrift store find that works perfectly. This was an entry level consumer grade camera in the 90's. But there's no way you'd figure it out from the photos.

This camera is supposed to be able to take 6x6 and 6x9 format photos by swapping out a cropping mask. Does anyone know how to do it? The mask seems stuck (?) on one side. Need help!

Bullriders, Alpine Days Rodeo 2025, Utah

The bullrider photos are favorites from 2025. Not because they are technically perfect, but because they capture the spirit of the moment. Details like the rodeo clown poised to jump in and pull the cowboy out from under the bull's hoofs. The dust kicked up by the bull. Cowboys watching from the railing.
