Look up view of spiral stairs in Paris with orange walls and golden electric lighting, with a round skylight in the center at the top middle showing the blue sky and looking like an eye.

Wide angle symmetrical view from above on colourful fresco overhanging the platforms, at Hankar metro station in Brussels, at blue hour. A dark blue sky is visible under a geometric glass structure in the ceiling, that reminds of the shapr of a snake face. Tiny black lamps hanging from the structure picture the snake's eyes.
The wildly colorful “Notre Temps” fresco was painted by Roger Somville, leader of the Belgian Expressionists Movement in 1976. The mural uses a lot of bright and strident colors in shades of orange and red to represent the struggles of the working class to attain social and economic justice.

'Under a starry sky' - U-Bahn Museumsinsel, Berlin (U5)
The design of this station was inspired by a stage design by Karl Friedrich Schinkel for the opera The Magic Flute (Die Zauberflöte) from 1816 and features a starry sky on a dark blue barrel vault with points of light over the tracks.

Look-up view on red metallic stairs linking two of the spheres of tha Atomium in Brussels. The Atomium is a Landmark modernist building in Brussels, Belgium, originally constructed as the centrepiece of the 1958 Brussels World's Fair (Expo 58).

'Free hugs, anyone?' metro Brussels
That lady only realised I was taking her picture as I pressed the shutter and we had a good laugh.

A lady dressed in a scary halloween costume and wearing dark make-up around her eyes and fake scars on her face is standing on a platform in the Brussels metro. A 'free hugs' placard is hanging from her neck.

'Tetris' - Berlin

#Berlin #photography #photographers #urbanphotography #architecture #architecturephotography #Fensterfreitag #WindowFriday #windows #unjourunephoto #urban

Look up view to a blue sky with a little rising white cloud from modern and geometric inner courtyard at Stralauer Platz in Berlin. The warm tones and square/solid shapes in the houses forming the square form a nice contrast with the sky and the lightness of the clouds.

View on Naples (Italy) and its bay, from the Certosa Monastery on a hill, with the Vesuvio in the background on a cloudy day. The photographer took the picture from a balcony with ocher-coloured walls on the sides, red stones on the floor and stone benches along the wall.

#photography #photographersunited #ArtYear urbanphotography #calatrava #architecturephotography #streetphotography #womeninstreet #photoderue #UnJourUnePhoto #Liège #guillemins

Liège Guillemin station in Belgium on a foggy day brightened by Daniel Buren's spectacular color and light intervention. The head and shoulders of a man wearing a bright red sport jacket with white stripes appear at the top of an elevator under a giant glass canopy decorated with red, white and yellow stripes. The canopy is also reflected on a glass surface on the side and the photographer composed the image so that the colourful stripes occupy most of the image.

A hiker is standing on the edge of an altitude point in the Pyrenean mountains facing a valley of emptiness covered with fog under a bright blue sky. His dark silhouette contrasts nicely with the thick white-blueish fog. A thin line of mountains peaks is visible in the far distance, delimiting the sky above the fog.

Look-up vertical view at wide-angle of the interior of the Art-Nouveau style Lucerna Passage in Prague, featuring an old movie theater decorated walls, carved wooden ceilings and a magnificent stain-glass rose window decorated with yellow circles in the middle of the ceiling. The main subject in the image is a statue of an ancient king riding triumphantly astride an upside-down, apparently dead horse hanging from the rose window. The sculpture by artist David Černý is a mocking reference to the more famous equestrian statue of King Wenceslas that sits in Wenceslas Square. A man sitting on the few steps at the entrance of the cinema, is also visible on the picture.
