Wouter Degen Profile picture The Van Nelle Factory was the first daylight factory in Europe and the most modern factory in the Netherlands. Paragon of functionalism. No bricks, but concrete. No supporting walls, but columns. A facade of steel and glass. A sea of daylight on the shop floor.

Now it serves as an office complex, event venue, but above all, an inspiring meeting place. In November 2022, I got to attend an event here. A day later, I went back to take this photo.

Across the Schie, on the bike path next to the prison, I set up my camera just after a heavy hailstorm. The photo was taken with a shutter speed of about 2 minutes, making the water act as a mirror.

Using this technique, you can see the movement in the clouds, while the movement in the water is no longer visible. A nice detail is the large tree in autumn colors, which is also clearly visible in the reflection in the water.
