It rained most of the day in Brussels, but finally the skies cleared a little in the evening and the moon was visible from time to time, peeking through the clouds. I enjoy walking through this old city at night and observing the interplay of the light and shadows.
It’s a fun challenge to try and capture the effects of light at night with an older point-and-shoot digital camera and I am always looking for solid objects against which to lean to steady myself.
This was my most “artistic” shot of the evening, an attempt to balance the effect of the weak light of the moon with the artificial lights that illuminated this statue.

It’s raining now… 🙂 I’m a bit further south than Brussels but it’s probably the same there.. high wind and rain. Our Dog is not amused!
Indeed, it was rainy and windy most of yesterday–not a day for outdoor activity.
Isn’t that a fabulous city? And many of us call things that are a hundred years old antiques. Good shot, considering the lighting challenges. I’ve been there!
