An empty station

They were doing construction works around the station and for an entire weekend there was no traffic. And all the stairs were blocked, except for one. So I got to see something special, a station without trains and people
A row of benches going into the distance, a simple but impressive glass roof, and platforms without any people on them. All in black and white and shot with a Fuji GSW690ii

Behind the Codrico building

Every time I'm here I expect construction to have started, gentrifying the neighborhood even further. But it's still slowly decaying

I think the tower has some foundation issues
A view of a canal and the Oude Kerk in Delft, where they build the tower very close to that canal. During construction it started to lean and it is 2m out of vertical. They tried to compensate for it on each subsequent layer, but only the 4 spires are actually vertical.

I needed a bunch of containers for old lenses that are missing lens caps, so I designed one with caps inspired by the locking mechanism of hoses on space suits. And then 3d printed them in a bunch of colors
A couple of containers with brightly colored lids, with scalloped grips and a fancy bolt pattern for keeping the parts together

Pink flowers
No idea what they are, but they are pretty pink flowers that seem to glow a bit at the edges
