Wow, I didn't know that Cyclops also had the folklore of Cinderella.  :D

The texture of the metal are very well rendered!

Cool shot - do you have any close ups or different angles?

Akira: Thanks, edited in LR and Silver Efex Pro 2.
Elsa: I have one a bit more to the left, but it doesn't reveal the back:

There were a lot of visitors there, hard to get pictures without other people in the frame. I found a picture of it on their website though: http://en.aros.dk/exhibitions_/2016/joana-vasconcelos/

Thomas: Thanks. You could say that it's part of it, though it opened in october last year and today is the last day.

First, beautifully shot and captured Jorgen.

Secondly, Mongo would not like to meet the Cinderella that goes with it. She is sure to be not just high but also high maintenance.

A couple more from the same exhibition:

#1 What might not be immediately seen is that these are made up of disposable cutlery.

#2 It was ringing, but I didn't dare to answer.

@ #2:  haha you´re to young, you didn´t know the code for these Hard Phones

I like that picture, a pity that the background imposes this 3 colour curve,

do you have a chance to revisit and take other perspectives?
maybe you try a bw conversion?

I'm not quite that young, I did grow up with phones similar to these ;) In that regard, the danish museum "The Old Town" here in Aarhus, opened a new 1970 area some time ago. It includes phones similar to these and the phones work, you can make calls between different rooms in the apartments: http://www.dengamleby.dk/engelsk/the-old-town/discover/remember-the-1970s/

The last day of the exhibition was the day after I visited, so no chance of returning.

A quick B&W edit for you:

I wonder when they will make a smartphone that can shoot as well, should sell well in some parts of the states  :o

Again a very nice capture, excellent PP and B&W conversion!

Århus is definitely on the map!

Thanks again, it's processed with Silver Efex Pro 2. I kind of like the results it produces.

Erik: A lot is happening in Aarhus for sure. A whole new part of the city is in the process of being built (Aarhus Ø), I've only briefly been down there, but there's several quite interesting new buildings and then there's the whole "European Capital of Culture in 2017": http://www.aarhus2017.dk/en/
