Hotel de Ville, Calais

Hotel de Ville, Calais

Uploaded: June 13, 2005

Description

This magnificent old hospital in Calais, France, is lit at night by sodium floodlights. There's that much haze (pollution?) in the air that the sky is lit as well.

Scanner took one look at this and had a fit, emphasising the colour cast.

For me this could as well be owned by Cruella de Ville...

Canon 28-80mm lens at 28mm end. No filters, tripod about 30secs at f8

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.


 

The following truth is one of the core philosophies of BetterPhoto:

I hear, I forget.
I see, I remember.
I do, I understand.

You learn by doing. Take your next online photography class.
