We walked along the Boulevard of Light, a series of art installations along the Amstel. We both took our cameras and had a very enjoyable evening shooting these various light sculptures. The most impressive was <a href=\"https:\/\/amsterdamlightfestival.com\/en\/artworks\/ovo\">OVO<\/a> (pictured above). From the Festival website:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>OVO is a seven meter high construction shaped like an egg. Through the interplay of light (in 22 minutes, 724 different light positions are demonstrated), sound and water (reflections in the water and fog that dances in the wind), it all feels like a supernatural experience. The spectator becomes part of the artwork, when he enters the gracious, majestic structure, OVO symbolizes birth, transformation and perfection.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Let&#8217;s hope that the festival finds its feet and returns next year.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Camera: Nikon D7000<br \/>\nLens: Nikon AF-S Nikkor 18-200mm f\/3.5-5.6G DX<br \/>\nFocal Length:\u00a027 mm<br \/>\nExposure: 1\/5 sec at f\/5.6<br \/>\nISO Speed Rating: ISO 1600<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Robin and I only got an opportunity to take in the 2012 Amsterdam Light Festival&#8230;<\/p>\n<div class=\"more-link-wrapper\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stationstudios.ca\/blog\/amsterdam-light-festival\/\">Read the post<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Amsterdam Light Festival 2012<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":3697,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"image","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[72],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3696","post","type-post","status-publish","format-image","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-making-images","post_format-post-format-image","excerpt","full-without-featured","even","excerpt-0"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
