The dynamics of Rotterdam come beautifully to life in this atmospheric photograph, in which the iconic water taxi skims across the river Maas. The low sun casts a golden glow over the water, while the sparkling reflections give the city a magical aura. In the background, the historic Hotel New York towers over the quay, a symbol of the city and a reminder of the time when the Holland-America Line brought thousands of emigrants here to a new life.
The modern architecture contrasts nicely with the city's nostalgic elements, and Rotterdam's imposing skyline adds extra depth to the image. The silhouettes of the buildings give the picture a timeless character, while the water taxi - an indispensable means of transport in this watery city - provides movement and liveliness.
This photo captures not only a typical Rotterdam scene, but also the atmosphere of a city that is always on the move. Perfect for lovers of urban photography and Rotterdam's unique charm.
