The skyline of Rotterdam is a much photographed subject and it may be obvious why. In the middle you can see the Erasmus Bridge crossing the - on the face of it - calm Nieuwe Maas. During this sunset, the sun came low over the Nieuwe Maas, the light aligned perfectly with an office building in the center, forming a large trajectory of light across the water.
This photo was taken from Katendrecht during a sunset. A long shutter speed of about 2 minutes was used, making the water appear calm. A separate photo was taken of the sky (directly before the photo with a long shutter speed), this was added afterwards using Photoshop.
It is a technique I like to use to create calmness in the image. I use ND filters (neutral density) from NISI.
This photo is part of a series of photos taken from the same spot with a short time difference during sunset. You can find these in the 'Rotterdam' album.
