Leiden turns pink at the Louris Bridge over the Herengracht (0121). This enchanting photo captures the essence of a Leiden sunset in all its splendour. The scene unfolds from the Utrechtse Veer, where you can see part of the Nieuwe Rijn river in the foreground. The water reflects the soft, pink hues of the sky that envelops the entire area in a warm glow.
At the centre of the composition is the picturesque Louris Bridge that spans the Herengracht. This architectural gem, bathed in evening light, forms the heart of the picture. A couple walks on the bridge, adding a touch of romance to the image. They seem to be enjoying the serene moment and tranquillity the city has to offer.
This picture exudes a sense of peace, harmony and serenity. It is a wonderful tribute to the picturesque beauty of Leiden at dusk, where the city envelops itself in shades of pink and life slows down for a moment.
