29 April 2025 · Leiden walk towards, in and around Burcht

A tall banded smokestack dominates the frame, shot from low angle against a clear blue Dutch sky. The upward perspective compresses the surrounding brick factory buildings into a single graphic plane — tower, chimney, and roofline locked into a poster-flat composition. Industrial heritage architecture in Leiden, where the mass of the old complex is still readable in the geometry of what it left standing.
