Frankfurt, Germany / 德國法蘭克福

            This is a photo of New Frankfurt Old Town during blue hour. Note that these buildings are all reconstructions, with the originals being destroyed during WW2.

New Frankfurt Old Town itself was reconstructed from 2012 to 2018 as part of a major urban development project called the Dom-Römer Project. (Frankfurt Cathedral, in the middle background, was actually reconstructed in the 1950s.)

As there were plenty of people walking in front of my camera while I was photographing, this image was created by stacking several long exposure images on top of one another. A few ghostly outlines of individuals remain, but I felt these added to the overall atmosphere of the image so I’ve decided to leave them there. In my opinion, blue hour is definitely the best time to capture the rustic ambience of New Frankfurt Old Town.

NOTE: On my recent trip, I took plenty of city / urban /architectural photos, meaning that interspaced between images of birds and nature, I’ll also be sharing a few of these images, too. Hope you enjoy them.

Thank you for your interest, views, faves, comments and awards ! This image was captured in Frankfurt am Main 法蘭克福. (Better viewed on a larger screen.)
