Night time photograph of a highway, shot from the diverging lane, pointed towards the void at the end of the street. A street lamp over the highway shines blindingly bright into the darkness that reaches the rest of the street. An other street lamp that's out of the frame shines light onto the street markings in front of the photographer's perspective. It's not really well visible what's left and right of the street but you can make out what looks like bushes.

Photograph at night, of train tracks with pipes running along those tracks on one side, behind that is a power plant that is partially lit by blue and purple light. The blue and purple light also colours the fumes that come out of the two chimneys, on the left and right of the power plant. Right to the outer left chimney are two tall buildings and a building with industrial scaffolding around that, and a crane; right of that you have the left outer most chimney. There is a way bigger chimney in the middle of the power plant in picture, but further back and it's not lit up. A few buildings that neighbour the plant are visible and they're soaked in the power plant's purpelish-blue light.

Photograph of a close up cluster of high rise buildings at night with fog. The lights from the windows of the buildings shine in a bright, cold blueish white colour, which gets also picked up by the fog surrounding the skyscrapers making the surroundings of the skyscrapers light up as well. The skyscraper in the middle of the frame has an antenna that is lit by yellow light, which also gets absorbed by the surrounding fog, making the building have a foggy outline of coloured light. There is an other high rise next to the yellow one, appearing small because it is partially behind one of the foreground buildings. That building has, opposed to all other buildings, red lights shining from the windows, making that building stand out, even though it's relatively small, compared to the foreground buildings.

Photograph at night, of a city's high rise skyline – city is Frankfurt, Germany –. The lower third of the photograph is dark, shadowy and shows the many railways of the central station; there are two trains that are parked and lit in cold blue light from above; an other rail is occupied by a driving train that you can only see the back of, with its red lights.
The upper part of the image has many high rise buildings that shine a cold, blue light into the foggy sky. The high rises on the left side are more sparsely spread whereas the buildings on the right side are more clustered together, which results in a veil of cold, blue city lights above the buildings due to the fog in the sky.

Photograph of an industrial train yard that looks run down. The yard buildings are all sprayed with different graffiti, mostly throw up graffiti. A building further away on the yard has horizontal metal frameworks that come out of the side of the building where the tracks are. The frameworks run a few meters over the train tracks and end over the harbour basin that is barely visible in the photograph. The sky is overcast, the sun shine on the clouds make them partially really bright, while other parts of the clouds are pretty dark.

#photography #streetphotography #bahnhofsviertel #frankfurt #urban #urbanphotography #urbanlandscape

Daylight photograph of a dirty street after rain. The street is still shiny from how wet the streets got. Buildings surround the street. There is an erotic store that looks really run down from the outside. There are parked cars on the street and further back are cars driving on the street, with their headlights reflecting somewhat strongly. A crow, with its wings stretched out is flying over the small area of the photo where the sky is visible.

Photograph of the interior of a house that's about to be demolished. The floor is almost too dark to see that there is a puddle, the size of almost the entire room. The only visible wall in front of the camera lens has four breakthroughs, through the wall, into different rooms. The roof seems to be held up by an arrangement of support pillars, that are aligned with the wall. The wall is mostly painted white, but only to a certain height; the brick wall is visible above the white part. There are windows in the rooms behind the breakthroughs, where deep red light shines through.

Photograph of a landscape where the sun is setting behind the peaks of two mountains in the distance. The cloudless sky lights up in bright yellow, that turns more orange/reddish at the horizon, but gets more off-pink in the sky above the sun.
There's a green meadow with some trees between the mountains and the lense, and a river that stretches along the whole bottom of the picture.

Planned to go to a spot for photos today where I haven't been before. Finally a photo spot again, where I would want to go with weapons, to feel safer. One of the better qualities a photo spot can have.

I think I settled for the wrong form of art, when I want to earn something with it.
I don't think that commissions would be compatible with the art form I'm doing.

When I was tiny I remember looking at buildings, cars, TV adverts, streets, packaged food... and thinking woah, this was all made by other humans. I felt the ghosts of all these adults wherever I went and it filled me with something... like awe. TBH it still does.

Photograph of a small room with tiled ceramic walls. A round ceiling light is illuminating the room in a deep, dark, red color. There is so much red that it is basically the only color besides the black shadows of the objects in the room. A series of four trash bins is lined up to the left wall, from the back of the room to the middle of it They are almost black, except for the labels on them. A cage trolley is standing in the front, aligned to the right wall, with a pile of waste paper on it. There is a closed door at the back right of the room.

Photograph at night of a foggy park path, covered with brown leafs. There are three light posts in a periodic distance of approximately 10 meters, or 32 feet. They shine bright with a blueish tint, but mostly fail to illuminate the surroundings. The leafs on the path reflect some of the light, as well as the green grass next to the light post and path, but you can't see most of the grass, as darkness covers almost the whole picture.

Photograph at night. Shot from a dark corner near the train path at a service way. There are multiple train tracks on the left side with overhead wiring on top, that are held by a series of horizontal metal bars, that is held up in the air by two steel trusses on each side. An assortment of pipes run along next to the tracks. There is a building with a lookout tower that can oversee all tracks, on the service pathway. The trains on the tracks are brightly illuminated and the city skyline is visible behind the trains. The skyline shines and slightly illuminates the clouds above.

Photograph of two large, horizontal antennas ( – log-periodic antennas – ), behind chain wire fencing, that has three stretches of barbed wire on top of the fence, at an 45 degree angle, towards the direction of the photograph. The fencing has sharp focus, while the two antennas are out of focus, behind a grey, sky.

I think modern computer software was a mistake and we should go back to our roots of developing for limited hardware.

The same amount of electricity that could power MS-DOS for a year is now used to ask Copilot how to save a Word document to your local Desktop instead of OneDrive.
