We present you his latest personal work entitled 'Arthur Laing Bridge' in his GoSeeSHOP. The photos were shot at the aforementioned bridge which connects the airport with the city of Vancouver, Canada. "What fascinates me most about it is the monumental architecture and the connection between the airport island and the city as well as the seemingly never-ending, swelling flow of traffic. Thus the idea of presenting the bridge when it is empty. A state that almost never occurs, which gives it a somewhat surreal appearance – particularly in the photos during the daytime. " Janik tells GoSee.
And it's just like Janik says: From the airport to the city center, there's no getting around the Arthur Laing Bridge. It connects the airport isle Sea Island like a big, stable umbilical cord with the center of the city of Vancouver. The four-lane bridge in British Columbia bridges the Fraser River and connects Vancouver to Sea Island in Richmond county, where Vancouver International Airport is located. The bridge was opened to traffic in August 1975, but the official opening took place later on 15 May, 1976. On 6 September, 1974, then-Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau announced that the new bridge would be named after the popular parliament member Arthur Laing from Vancouver.
"The use of ND filters during the day and long exposure at night makes the never-ending flow of cars disappear and shows the monumental architecture in an unusual way." Janik shares his photographic approach. We say: Go & See & Shop!
