At Night.

Posted by MaryB (Staffordshire, United Kingdom) on 17 October 2007 in Architecture.

This is the 3rd photo from Brussels, (more to come at a later date :) ) this is just one section of the magnificent bulidings in the square in Brussels Belgium.
I took this hand held night shot, after being awake for 18hrs! so it has a wee bit of blur to the buildings, but I wanted to try and blur the people, (those that were moving) which I think i've managed ok :)
Next stop Pompeii :)

Any tips or constructive criticism are welcome :)

I really appreciate all your comments, thank you so much. I'm only sorry I've not got time to respond. I do read all the comments and will try to answer any questions you have about my posts :)

You're lucky to see Brussels with "tourist" eyes... I lived there for some years and I've been traumatised by the face of the poeple in the subway, a monday morning! They looked so sad! Well, i don't live there anymorr and I restart to see it beautiful. The Grand Place at night is wonderful. In summer, at 10 pm, there is a light and sound show on that square, it's very nice too.

Hello MaryB. Welcome home! I am glad you had a wonderful time on your holiday. Thank you for dropped by on my blog and for your nice comment. I appreciate it a lot. I couldn’t see your photos for two days. I don’t know why but I didn’t have access to your blog. As you can see everything is alright again from today.

Beautiful and expresses well the mood one is in after visiting Brussels. Did you see "manneke Pis?"

@Illuci: We did Erik, I was suprised it was a much smaller statue than we thought it would be, thank goodness there was a crowd around it or we would have missed it!
