Another night shot

A bit more watery than yesterday's shot, therefore perfect for a Watery Wednesday!

700!

This is my 700th post! Here's a colourful night photo of the Kennedy bridge to celebrate.

Manhattan Gym

I wander if there is a Liège Gym in Manhattan...

First snow

Today we got the first significant snowfall of the year in Liège. Winter's officially here!

Saint Bart

Saint Bartholomew's twin towers all lit up at night.

Liège by night

A panoramic night shot of Liège, taken from the Citadel Hill.

Fire parade

This parade of fire jugglers and fire eaters was also part of the Nocturne des Coteaux de la Citadelle. It was amazing!

Les anchoises

One of the events taking place during the Nocturne des Coteaux de la Citadelle was a concert by a great local band called Les Anchoises. Here's a couple of photos.

La nocturne des Coteaux de la Citadelle

Yesterday we went to the annual nocturnal opening of the Citadel Hill. It's a sort of festival of lights with many associated events such as concerts, fire eating processions and, of course, food and drink. Most public building were illuminated for the occasion. Here's the Provincial Palace, in shiny green and eerie red.

Water under the bridge

Different views of the water under the Kennedy bridge at night. The bridge lighting changes colour and is reflected on the water!

Kennedy bridge by night

A view of the Kennedy bridge and the Meuse river by night, taken just before the 14th of July fireworks.

We're moving to our new flat tomorrow. If everything goes well I will post again soon!

14 Juillet

Every year the city of Liège celebrates Bastille Day with fireworks. This year was no exception. Fifteen minutes of wonder on the Meuse!

More Espagna!

Another couple of photos from yesterday's spanish celebrations. Hundreds of cars came streaming into the city centre hooting their horns and waving their flags.

Espagna!

The Liège spanish community came out in force tonight to celebrate Spain's World Cup win. They'll probably stay out all night, waving their flags and blowing their vuvuzelas.

Red moon

A couple of days ago I took this photos of a red full moon rising over Liège rooftops.

In this second shot I had to tweak the shadows in an image processing software to bring out the buildings. Consequently the moon has a bizarre dark corona.

Moonwatch Friday

Yesterday I managed to take this photo of the moon. I am very proud of it so I thought I'd share it with you. Celestial wonders galore on the Skywatch Friday blog!

Spring is here

Spring is here but I haven't had time yet to go out shooting it. So here's a winter photo, complete with darkness and snow. It wasn't all that long ago...

Neigemageddon

It's like snowmageddon only less apocalyptic. Everything in Liège is smaller scale than in the US!

Inside Out

This boat on the Meuse is a night club called Inside Out. They host numerous electro DJ nights as well as some live rock bands.

Watery Wednesday by Night

A view of the Meuse and the Kennedy bridge by night. More watery wonders here.
