Dusk at Zürich

Well yesterday it was great weather in Zürich and I and my colleague (which name is Hans too, so Hans and Second Hans) went down town Zürich and took a boat which brought us over the Lake to a nice park and a Chinese garden (China in Switzerland how weird can it be :-)
Anyway we walked back along the lake, a wonderful view and we ended up down town again while the evening fell over the city and I took this picture along the river which flows through the town.

Low light, but still manageable. Decreased in PP the brightness though and increased saturation and contrast. Sharpened after resizing.

Mooi scherp en het water op de voorgrond heeft een prachtig effect.
Wel jammer dat de lucht een beetje saai is, maar ja... dat heb je nu eenmaal niet voor het kiezen he? :-)
De sfeer oogt wel... "gemutlich"....

Hi Hansie

A wonferful low light shot here, superb detail and a very pretty scene. I like the light line you have used in the framing it matches the lights in the image and sets the view nicely

TFS regards Smurfie

HI Hans,

Just beautiful. I especially like the reflections of the gold on the clock tower. What a terrific view from across the river. The buildings still have quite a bit of color visible in their facades..

Zehr Gut! Lisa

Hello Hans! Top class shot of Zurich my friend, great atmosphere and lovely composition, thanks!

Hi Hans,

A waterfront is always a nice place to be and see, and even more so when the lights are turned on.
I wonder if I would have decreased the birghtness, but you sure created a pleasing atmosphere - hope there will be more times that you can enjoy your surroungs there in "far away" Switserland.
