Northern Europe is a good place to go in the summer. Most of the inhabitants dream to spend their holiday in the sun and they drive through France to reach Spain. So the places are less crowded. But July 2020 was strange. The virus lured everywhere and the hotels were empty, therefore very cheap, the perfect moment to drive up to the North. Rotterdam is an interesting city that was entirely flattened by the Germans during World War Two and now totally reconstructed and a beacon to modern architecture. This time I used the 16 x 9 format. In fact I pressed the wrong button on my new camera and it changed the ratio without me knowing how to reverse. It did not bother me so much, except I lost a bit of the sensor surface. This cinema format is in fact even easier than the 3 x 2 standard ratio. I wanted the perspective effect of this nearly empty shopping mall at dusk and the elongated format suited the need. The mystery is why was my mind driven from Spain to the Netherlands ? I will never know.
