Description
My job requires me to travel a lot. In fact, you could say that traveling is my job. Working for an airline for almost 25 years and spending more than 15,000 hours in the air has allowed me to discover the world and its beauty.
Since 2015, I have been combining my job with my passion, photography, and if you look at my passion, it is also a journey in itself. From the moment I got hooked to now in the present. Discovering new landscapes and cities, improving my skills with the camera, but also in post-processing. A never-ending journey that gives me great pleasure! My work allows me to visit beautiful places and capture them with my camera. So I feel privileged to have the perfect combination of work and hobby!
This time my work has taken me to New York. I can be brief about this city, I love NY! There are so many photographic opportunities in this city, especially in Manhattan. Beautiful skyscrapers, neon, endless street views, etc. To photograph the skyline of Manhattan I went to Dumbo. From there you have a great view along the East River towards the city.
Especially this morning there was almost no wind, which made the East River nice and calm. I set up my equipment, including my tripod, because I wanted to get a long exposure shot of the skyline, knowing that it would give me a nice reflection in the river. Well it did, as you can see in this picture. The Manhattan skyline and the Brooklyn Bridge reflected beautifully in the river. I've been here many times, but this time I knew it would be a great shot. I went home with a big smile on my face.
As always, the editing, where I've spent a lot of time, is done at home. A big screen, a Wacom tablet and a nice cup of coffee with some chill out music playing in the background gets me in the right mood to create a nice piece of wall art that will look great on your wall. At home, I made 2 versions, one in colour which you can also find in my shop and this one in monochrome. I like them both, how about you?
