I took this picture yesterday with my mobile phone ( Lenovo P2 ) after visiting a the exhibition "Building Holland" in "de Rai" here in Amsterdam.

I corrected the perspective and the contrast with Snapseed and later smuggled a little extra sky and road on the right with Serif's excellent program Photoplus X8 ( a bargain for € 22,99, for sale here: http://www.serif.com/photoplus/) just to give the crane a little more space.

The telecom tower has changed a lot since it was built a few decades ago.

The egg shaped platters are home to a rather intricate piece of electronic art by Dutch artist Giny Vos, which you can only see in the evening / night.

All kind of light patterns appear there, referencing the stars in the universe.

Here is a site with info ( in Dutch ) on this project, where the metamorphosis of the tower is shown.
