Leiden - Low Perspective on the Waag - This intriguing photograph captures Leiden's majestic Waag from a unique and low perspective. Using a 14mm lens, the entire Waag is beautifully captured, while it is partly reflected in a puddle in the foreground, which is on the ground.
The grey sky adds to the photo's mysterious atmosphere and adds a certain drama to the image. The low perspective makes the Waag appear impressive and imposing, almost like a historical monument rising from the earth.
This picture shows how photography can transform an everyday subject into a work of art by using the right perspective and composition. It is a tribute to Leiden's magnificent architecture and a reminder of the beauty that can be found even on the greyest of days.
