Belgium - Brussels - Atomium Stair 02_sq flipped v1a_DSC0833

My Website : Twitter : Facebook : Instagram : Photocrowd

One of the colourful stairs inside the Atomium. This is actually a 'flipped' version of my previous uploaded photo of a few days ago. I thought that it would add a disquietening effect by removing the slight disymmetry.

For some reason this looks to me like a film set, maybe as it's reminiscent of the underground bunkers in the TV series 'Lost'........

From Wikipedia : "The Atomium is a landmark building in Brussels (Belgium), originally constructed for the 1958 Brussels World’s Fair (Expo 58). It is located on the Heysel Plateau, where the exhibition took place. It is now a museum.

Designed by the engineer André Waterkeyn and architects André and Jean Polak, it stands 102 m (335 ft) tall. Its nine 18 m (60 ft) diameter stainless steel clad spheres are connected, so that the whole forms the shape of a unit cell of an α-iron (ferrite) crystal magnified 165 billion times. Tubes of 3 m (10 ft) diameter connect the spheres along the 12 edges of the cube and all eight vertices to the centre. They enclose stairs, escalators and a lift (in the central, vertical tube) to allow access to the five habitable spheres, which contain exhibit halls and other public spaces. The top sphere includes a restaurant which has a panoramic view of Brussels."
