Seven-Years Ago (12-September-2012) — Belgium

Gone to see Europe. Semester at Sea. Fall 2012 Semester Voyage on the MV Explorer. Day 20: Antwerp, Belgium.

Voetgangerstunnel is a pedestrian (and bicycle) tunnel  under the Scheldt River.  I made a time-lapse video going through the tunnel where I carried a Nikon 1V1 camera with a 10 mm f/2.8 lens on a monopod. The camera was set to automatically take an image every 5 seconds. Light levels were low, and I had to hope each image would be in focus. Once I was on the other side of the river I got an image of the MV Explorer with the Antwerp Cathedral in the background.
