Here I go with the sunset images again, but it seems to be the only beauty in an otherwise grey existence. As I cross the river it is not a conventionally beautiful naturescape that serves as a background for the multicoloured sky, but the industrial outline of an old harbour city. A few old-time ships, permanently docked along the riverbank serve as a spice to the area’s main ingredients of old factories, warehouses and newly built office complexes. Above it all rises the big cranes of the wharfs and dry docks as black silhouetts against the blazing orange of the sky. The contrast between these relics of the shipping harbour and the bright colours of the sky make the scene more interesting than others like it. Since I’m sitting on a rickety bus on my way home from work, the experience becomes all the better in comparison.
