Aarhus by Night Photos

Aarhus by Night photo thread.

This thread is about Aarhus at night.
Architecture, buildings, roads, harbour and people at night.
A thread to complement the construction threads - what does
it all look like at night?

The work of photographer "Ukendt Aarhus" is
the inspiration for this thread (but eventually
the rest of us might also bring along some photo-snap contributions to the thread) :)

Aarhus set fra oven i nattens mulm og mørke.

Billederne er taget i højden, og nogle af dem giver et sug i maven, når man tænker på, hvor fotografen har stået.

»Der er kun ét motiv, og det er Aarhus. Det er byen, vejret og infrastrukturen der styrer motivet - Ukendt Aarhus fanger det blot. Det er altså ikke en jagt efter et specielt motiv, men nærmere stemningen fra Aarhus.«

Hvor ofte tager du billeder?

»Gerne én gang om ugen. Nogle uger bliver det til flere ture - det er svært at lade være.«

Foregår det kun om natten?

»Ja, det foregår kun om natten. Aarhus er travl om dagen, men om natten er byen fri.«

Hvor gammel er du?

»For mig er det værket der er vigtigst, derfor svarer jeg ikke konkret på det. Men Ukendt Aarhus er en ung person, en gennemsnits- århusianer der kom til Aarhus fra udkants-Danmark for at studere. Med mig bragte jeg et stort ønske om at blive en del af byen, og bidrage til fællesskabet.«

ps.
Just to make sure: I don't know who "Ukendt Aarhus" is!
Hi,

Great thread, and great photos by "Ukendt Aarhus"!
AndreasHvidPhotography (facebook), is another great photographer of "urban exploration"!

But I don't think, they want their pictures posted in this thread?! We may shoot some great night photos, ourselves ;-)

Indeed :)

Until then, many other people certainly take pictures and video during the night!

E.g.:

Very artistic youtube video by Sebastian Funch:
Taken with a Hero Pro camera.

A lot of very cool Rainbow Panorama shots out there on the internet
(And, certainly, still a lot of very cool motives waiting for the right photographer):

(and) Loads of cool night snaps attached to Google Maps:

E.g. photographer Claus Møller:

And btw. while searching for Aros Rainbow night shots,
I came by the trailer for the "Aarhus by Night" movie (1989) ...
Loads of interesting stuff out there :)

Where did you shoot this from?
Its from near Ryhavevej in Hasle, with a large zoom and tripod. It is actually quite "hilly" there (don't tell a norwegian), which makes for a good view.

Concerning overview shots (In my understanding): Another excursion could go to the Søsterhøj area in Skåde, or (west of) Højbjerg ("High Mountain" in english...., again don't tell a Norwegian :) .. ).
It is all about finding a spot with a clear line of sight to the harbour, and at a relatively high position. Randersvej is also quite good, but line-of-sight is tricky there.

Where are they taken from? Grundfos Kollegiet ? Some crane?

IMHO. Candidate for best photo of the year in the Aarhus section :)
