Hang Tough - Atomium, Brussels - a photo on Flickriver

            I really liked the Atomium and the complex structure that it is comprised of. It gave me multiple opportunities to get interesting shots, playing with the spheres and the supporting tubes. I spent quite a while outside trying to get different angles and new perspectives. I have several of my attempts through my Photostream. I wish that it had been a bit better weather and had blue skies as the background, but it seemed to work better for when I did black and white shots so I think it was okay in the end.
