A #Belgian thingy?

Until 2016 publication of these photos would have been illegal. From the website of the #Atomium (pictured here:)
‘#copyright restrictions exempt private individuals (…) where photographs are taken by private individuals and shown on private websites for no commercial purpose.’

SABAM, #Belgium's society for collecting copyrights and having an illustrious reputation for claiming copyrights (even when it’s not even holding it,) has claimed worldwide intellectual property rights on all reproductions of the Atomium and has gone so far to demand a US website to remove all images from its pages.

Luckily Belgium has come to its senses and since 2016 there is freedom of panorama, allowing pictures of public buildings under copyright to be legally distributed.

All three images are details of the Atomium: 9 gigantic (18m diameter) Stainless steel clad spheres joined together with steel tubes (which hold the escalators and elevators) shaped together in unit cell that represent an iron crystal, magnified 165 million times.

99 Luftballons. *

I know, you probably seen this before, especially if you were looking for information about Cappadocia. It doesn’t make it any less impressive.

* I didn’t count them, but the number sounds about right. For more information ==> https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/99_Luftballons
In a rocky and mountainous landscape at dawn there are lots of hot air balloons in all kind of colours.

Time.

Back then, cities were not synchonized, ie. the time between cities could vary several minutes since they often followed the ‘sun time.’ With the advent of the train that could no longer be the case and regions and countries introduced a universal time.

Clocks became very important and if you wanted to know the exact time, you went to the train station.

Ancient standing clocks in different formats and shapes as they were used in train stations all over the wold. It’s not clear if they are working or not but none of them have the same time.

The Black Tower.

Built in the early 13th century, this tower is the only remaining part of the original first wall around Brussels. By the 15th century, it became private property (due to the building of the second fortification, it had long lost its purpose) and is one of the reasons it survived for so long.

In 1937, it became the first protected building in the city. It is notable for being a single medieval tower surrounded by modern-day buildings and thus has become a popular tourist destination.

A medieval tower with a concave roof partly overgrown with well maintained ivy. Buit around it is a higher, modern buildings in red/orange and grey. This combination has something very strange to it.

The Five Continents.

So, this is not some sort of AI generated photo, but it is a real existing building.

If you are ever in the city of Antwerp, be sure not to miss ‘The Five Continents’ an Art-Deco building colloquially known as ‘the boat house’ or ‘the little boat’ for it’s facade which has a balcony in the form of a ship.

Built in 1901 to the plans of architect Frans Smet-Verhas and commissioned by the boat builder Petrus Roeis, it was sold 2 years ago for funny money (a 2 and 6 zero’s) to a lawyer firm.

Wooden house.

Don’t be fooled. This is NOT the oldest house in #Antwerp. However, it is the oldest house in Antwerp with a wooden facade. Dating from 1546 it has survived 6 wars although sadly, due to a restoration in the ‘70s the facade has had a transformation and isn’t original anymore.

A low-angle shot looking up at a narrow street lined with old brick buildings. On the right is a tall, narrow building with a wooden facade on the second and third stories. There are rows of windows with many panes of glass on each floor. A small plant sits in a pot on the second floor. Next to the building is a brick wall with a small door and the number "15" on it. To the left of the wooden building is another brick building with a more ornate facade and many windows. The sky is blue with some clouds visible in the upper left corner of the image.
Closer look of the house. A long shot of a tall, narrow, dark brown, three-story building with a gabled roof and visible wood grain. It has three rows of windows, with the bottom row containing six windows, the middle row containing five, and the top row containing two. A small terracotta pot with a small tree in it sits on the windowsill of the middle row of windows. A second building with brick walls is visible on the left side of the image, and a third building with brick walls and an external metal staircase is visible on the right. The sky is visible at the top of the image.
