Wouter Degen about Rotterdam skyline - blue hour

The skyline of Rotterdam is a much photographed subject and it may be obvious why. In the center is the Erasmus Bridge that crosses the - on the face of it - calm Nieuwe Maas. The photo has a blue tone because it was photographed in the so-called "blue hour.

This photo was taken from Katendrecht during a sunset. A long shutter speed of about 2 minutes was used, making the water appear calm and the clouds diffuse. A nice bonus of this technique is that movement of, for example, boats and cars are not detected unless they have lights on.

It is a technique I like to use to create tranquility 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 album 'Rotterdam'.
