Description
Colorized photo from 1900
Original Title: Ghent
Location: Opgeeistenlaan 1, Ghent 9000, Belgium
When I first saw this photo, I knew it was going to be a night scene. The scene would look bland if it was a day time shot because the building is a dull color. I wanted more drama and story in the piece. So I opted for a night scene.
This building was rather hard to track down, the original title Ghent, was my only clue, and even when I finally thought I found the location, it blended in so well I didn't see it. But there it was, blending in with huge apartment buildings behind it.
I had to locate it, because I wanted an accurate depiction of it. My original intention was to light up the windows, but near as I can tell, there are no lights in it at all or ever were. I lit the lamps only. The sky was going to have stars, but I wanted more pop instead.
