Unexpectedly beautiful


The new weekend is already so close upon us, always such a pleasing prospect. How has your week been so far? Almost exactly year ago I was taking a photo course for which we went to the industrial harbors of Antwerp on a cloudy Sunday. The goal was to capture the ominous, dark, abandoned, rusty pilotages and machines, the mysterious forbidden entrances and the industrial feeling all around. Before going I wasn't sure what to think. These gorgeous shots by Diana Melfi made me remember that I realized (when taking photos there) that these kind of places can be more beautiful then you'd expect. Especially when they're paired with fashion...

  1. Gorgeous! I love seeing the contrast of beautiful fashions against deconstructed or industrial backdrops.

  2. Wow these are just gorgeous, Christel! I agree that the contrast is stunning. You can certainly dress up the dark side. :) xoxo

  3. I like the black and white image but the image with the colorful graffiti and the black and silver dress is amazing. It must have been so fun to take a photography course. I have always wanted to take one.

  5. The black and white photo is gorgeous! It's so interesting how b&w is always more expressive than colour. xo
