Day 314 - Photography: my visit to the mine complex in Waterschei Belgium,

Yesterday, I went with my photo class group to Waterschei in Belgium. Waterschei is the name of a small village. In this village you find a former mine complex. Today you can visit the mine museum, visit the former factories, rent space for an exhibition or to make a photo shoot.

The location is so nice and inspiring, and at the same time a bit sad when you think of all those people that had to work in the mines in bad conditions.

The photos below show the large tower: then and now. The entrance of the mine was situated right under this tower.

If you are looking for a photo location and you love industrial buildings: this is the place to be!

Day 308 - New photo challenge: rain

As you know, I am in a photography class. Each week we get a challenge.

The challenge for this week is: rain.Not just rain, but we need to try to find a creative way to make a photo of rain.

As it rained a lot this weekend, I had the opportunity to start this project. The photo below is taken from the inside of the car. The raindrops on the window transform the photo into a watercolor painting. I like it a lot. Unfortunately I did not have my camera, so I had to use my phone. Therefore the quality is not that goo :-(
