Photo of a view over the temporary long walkway and bicycle path along the construction-site with the dark-green metallic new arch-feet of the bowed new metallic roof-construction for the new bus-station behind Central Station Amsterdam city.
To the left is the border of river IJ with the ferries, behind Central Station.
I like these situations of raw construction materials and the sites full of building activities, and the often strange perspectives they create, like here. They disrupt the normal daily urban city-life.

Won't start a swinger club story now
(though - swinging strings in a quantum physical club, that could be interesting ; )
After the demolition of the old house on the property, the land has been graded and a quite large foundation has been completed. Actually, this photo was not shot at night. It was shot in broad daylight. Initial work in Snapseed and a lot of work in Afterlight have made this piece into what almost looks like a huge flash photo at night. Hope you like it.

Located in the 4600 block of Kingsway and Hazel Street in Burnaby, British Columbia at the former site of Cactus Club.
66-storey mixed-use highrise,
372 condos,
144,000 sq ft of office space,
5,000 sq ft of retail space,
This pan speaks for itself. The site is now getting its final leveling and infrastructure. In the distance at the far left, the first structure is rising. I’ve wanted better shopping and dining in our neighborhood for years and years, but I didn’t envision this scale.
Keeping an eye out for anything interesting while walking along Queen Street West in downtown Toronto, I spotted these two women walking along the South side of the street under a construction protection setup. Loved the backdrop of graffiti, and, at the time I did not really see what the lady on the left was doing. I actually only noticed when I was looking at the images on the computer. Still not sure what she was doing. Not sure I want to know. I suspect the lady on the right did not either but decided to just keep on walking. - JW
Date Taken: 2017-05-30
Tech Details:
Taken using a hand-held Nikon D7100 fitted with a Nikkor 18-105mm VR lense set to 75mm, ISO720 (Auto ISO), Daylight WB, Aperture priority mode, f/7.1, 1/250 sec with an EV+0.33 exposure bias. PP in free Open Source RAWTherapee from Nikon RAW/NEF source file: Scale image size to 9000x6000, correct for pincushion distortion and also correct keystoning, set exposure to ½ stop over (brighter) than as-shot, increase contrast and Chromaticity in L-A-B mode, enable the Graduated Neutral Density tool and rotate as well as shift it to cover and darken the sidewalk which was overly right and then darken it to better balance with the tonality of the rest of the image, increase vibrance slightly, sharpen, save. PP in free Open Source GIMP: use the levels tool to auto-adjust the image tonality and colour balance, sharpen, save, scale image to 6000x4000, sharpen slightly, add fine black-and-white frame, add bar and text on left, save, scale image to 1800 wide for posting, sharpen slightly, save.
Work is progressing pretty fast at the construction site.
I took this from the back of the land that's been used and there was a lot of land behind the old printing shop.

This Volvo 7 turbo6 refulling tanker was discovered on the mystery
road construction site in the 1990's. [See other site pictures] Not considered to of interest at the time but this classic Volvo would be 31 years old today.
There are many apps that attempt to reproduce a sepia tone. I think that this Hipstamatic combination produces some rather good results.
- Color - The color of the sepia toning is quite attractive - some emulations are too dark, others are not a very pleasant shade of brown.
- Texture - Close inspection of the image shows that an excellent "paper" texture is present. This background texture is tastefully modified with dust spots, creases, smudges, and scratches.
- Lighting - The exposure of the image has been altered during filtering to produce an image that showcases the sepia coloring better - the building is darker, whilst the sky is brighter and more evenly exposed. This provides an opportunity for the filter effects (texture, color, etc) to shine through.
- Frame / Border - As per the texture, the broad white border is given a realistically aged appearance.

Background information for sepia toning ...
Apparently, sepia toning of photographs was first carried out in the 1880's. Sepia toner was applied to a B&W print, resulting in the conversion of the metallic silver to a silver sulphide-based compound. The warm sepia coloring is produced immediately upon application of the toner - it is not a consequence of aging at all!

Photography notes ...
I used the Hipstamatic iOS app on my iPhone 7 Plus to acquire the unfiltered photograph (4032 x 3024 pixels) with an ISO of 20, exposure time of 1/3400 seconds, and aperture of f/1.8. The primary lens on the iPhone 7 Plus has a focal length of 3.99mm which is equivalent to 28mm for a full frame sensor (35mm).
Post-processing ...
Hipstamatic - Selected the unfiltered photograph.
Hipstamatic - Applied a number of "favorite combinations" (i.e., filters) to the image.
Hipstamatic - Selected the desired combination and made some secondary adjustments to the lighting and colors.
Hipstamatic - Applied a square crop (i.e., 1:1 aspect ratio) and saved the result to the Camera Roll.

The overwhelming majority of my forays into the world of Hipstamatic filters results in B&W (or monochrome) images.
In this instance, I rather liked this color combination. It has many of the elements that are common to my favorite color filter combinations ...
- De-saturated output.
- A cool temperature (i.e., the "white-balance" (WB) is shifted towards blue colors away from red colors).
- Slightly under-exposed.
- Some dark vignetting.
- Subtle texture effects.
- A rough border or frame.
Comparing the original with the Hipstamatic color image, I am first struck by the changes to the sky. Blue sky patches and white fluffy clouds are replaced by grey clouds. These clouds are darkest along the top, giving the scene the appearance of having been photographed with a Graduated Neutral Density Filter. I like the change in mood from a sunny afternoon to a harsher, more dramatic industrial setting. The latter fits well with the Scaffolding, crane and cement hose.
I also like the more subtle changes, notably the border and the texture layer.

The majority of my photographs are shot and processed in a way whereby they have an appearance that is close to the scene as it appeared at the time. But in some instances, I am tempted to apply more transformational filtering to create an image that takes me to another time and place. There are many popular apps that facilitate this type of processing (e.g., Instagram, VSCO, Enlight, Snapseed, etc). Sometimes, I use these apps, but for the most part, I stick to Hipstamatic.
Looking at the narrow, wedge-shaped corner of this apartment block, a connection with the iconic Flatiron Building (Manhattan, USA) entered my mind. I immediately thought that this scene was a good candidate for some filtering to take the viewer to a alternate reality (i.e., the presence of a variety of elements that are composed and lit in a good manner).
I shall be following up this post with a selection of these filtered images.
