Rotterdam, Erasmusbrug

Rotterdam, Erasmusbrug by Iris V.
Last night we were in Rotterdam when darkness fell. Lights went on, the city never sleeps..

The pink light is a project asking attention for women with breastcancer. Even without any project such colours add something to the surroundings, giving depth to the picture.

The boat is a watertaxi, in Rotterdam wellknown to bring you across the water to some interesting places like Hotel New york. www.hotelnewyork.nl/eng/information/index.html

When you click the link, scroll down to 'history'.
This hotel was formerly the check in of The Holland-America line. The place to be for immigrants to America. Today it is a hotel-restaurant, a very popular place in Rotterdam.

Erg mooi shot, op een goed moment van de dag genomen. Vooral die paarse gloed doet het hem.

re: Weekendje Alsfeld? ;-)
Meer een maandje half Europa. Nadat we Duitsland/Zwitserland uitgezet zijn omdat ze ons bij de NS de verkeerde treinkaarten verkocht hadden, zijn we doorgegaan in Frankrijk. Die foto's heb ik helaas nog niet uigezocht. Ik ben nu nog met Dresden bezig.

the lights are really great. I think the breast cancer project is a great idea. It got me wondering what the pink lights are about.
