"Blegny-mine Go Round"

I had a lot of fun doing my first panorama on the "parc de la Boverie" in Liège (Belgium) and I did it again on the Blegny-mine site in Blegny (still in Belgium). However, this time, no menacing sky, only a nice blue sky! A dozen photos were taken and assembled with software.
Anyone for an upside down walk?

The arduous labour of our Veterans

Blegny-mine site in Blegny, Belgium.
The pickaxe is particularly symbolic in the area... A lot of people worked hard in this mine 'till 1980 to bring raw material and wealth to the country, make a living and feed the family.

It took me a few trials before getting an interesting angle to see both the main structure of the site and the pickaxe on the same picture, symbolically planted in this rock. Quite a good result in my opinion...

This is no roller coaster

Here's the (so called in French) 'skip', used for raw material conveying in Blegny mines (Belgium).

These tip trucks are seen on the Blegny-mine site.

"Liege Go Round"

Here I am at the very end of the 'Boverie Park' in Liege (Belgium), armed with my camera and tripod. The sky was threatening, filled with clear areas and heavy clouds. It started to heavily rain before I finished the panorama. For locals, the bridge of Fragnée (le pont de Fragnée) from Liege and the Saint-Vincent church (the upside down dome) can be recognized. This is my first attempt at making a panorama planet! There are a lot of tutorials on YouTube explaining how to get this result but to sum it up, this is a panorama made of a dozen pictures taken from the camera on tripod, (the tripod makes it easy for the software afterward to assemble and merge all the pictures together properly). A filter (rectangular to polar coordinates) will then be applied to the panorama to get the planet effect". Simply stunning...

"Chi va piano va sano e va lontano"

Right now, I'm scared, he's not far anymore and I think he's seen me!

Title (in italian) means "Slowly but surely".

So light

Blow them out and watch them fly away in a seemingly weightless fashion

"Mille-feuilles"

The traditionnal rose, sepia ambiance.

Flowery abysses

Those little petals, magnified by the lens are creepy yet beautiful :-)

A million purple things

La fête des mères, c'était l'occasion de photographier de jolis spécimènes! -"Bonne fête m'man!... errr... je peux photographier?"

Duplicated memories

A photo of a photo, a mere nothing amuses me.

Louison ;)
