Description

I went to a nearby city called Delft today. It's a city with great national history, the royal family is buried there for example. The buildings are all very old, and there are a lot of churches in the city. This heart is a contrast with the rest of the city, modern, technologically inspired and BLUE

I've always been facinated with this heart, and now I have had the change to capture it.

More info about Delft (in English, German, French and ofcourse Dutch) http://www.delft.nl/webEN/

For GFXartist I've used the purple-ish background, and I've added one with a white background (my favorite) at Additional Downloads :)


EXIF data is a bit pointless since i used different settings for most photo's.

Wow, great collage. Especially like the unique cutting/fitting together of the images--and yet there seems to such a great balance to the finished piece. My only critique is that the top left image doesn't appear to have the same tonal range/contrast as all the other pieces in the collage.

like I already told you, I like a lot the collage.
The blue heart is very cool.

Hah, I live about 15 kilometers south of Delft, know it quite well. :)
To be honest, I'm not too crazy about this collage. Would really like to see a fullcolor version.

I love the collage but I have to agree with Furitsu. Tho I think you did a good job on the cutting (thumbup). The one that I think would be interesting is the right corner, its perspective is different:)

Trevorm: I edited the top left picture, it's more like the others now.

Furitsu: If you want, I can PM you a couple of photo's in colour. :) Here's 1 of them as an example: http://img372.imageshack.us/img372/5908/blueheartcolour2oo.jpg

I know that heart!
if you turn your back to the marketplace and walk down the street and to the next street, that's where my parents live (and I lived untill 2 years ago).

I must say, when they put the heart there, some years ago, I thought it was the ugliest thing ever. it just didn't fit there. I guess other people think that's the charm of it. Me personally, I'm not a big fan of this thing, but I do like your collage, it looks very fresh, and the effect of the heart in color and the background in black and white works very well.

so good job, making good pictures of an ugly subject :) (just kidding, that's just my oppinion)

great pic, not too happy about the collage though, its a bit overkill.
my fav is the top right corner (wish it was whole all the way.)
but the subject is very interesting and the blue really stands out...good work

Beautiful! Very powerful imagery! Awesome idea to keep the heart in blue and desaturate the background... You certainly have skill and talent for photography. +8 because that's a high as I can rate :)

Just WOW, great job, and i must say that one with a white background is my fave too. I've been so many times in your country, but i never visited this city, now i see a reason to do it
Thanks a lot for your job, it's beautiful
