Gothic Tower, Maastricht — Blue Hour from the Cobblestone Alley
24 May 2026 · Maastricht
Maastricht's Gothic church tower dominates the frame from a narrow cobblestone alley between two stone walls. The sodium floodlighting burns amber against a deep blue hour sky — warm artificial light holding its ground against the last of the natural. A single street lamp punctuates the lane below; a faint star or planet sits just above the roofline, almost incidental. The geometry does the work: two walls converge, the tower rises, and the alley locks everything into place.
