  • Subject
  • Location
  • Date & Time
  • Equipment
  • Camera Settings
  • Comments

In a nutshell, I hope these posts will not only help you to appreciate some of my Flickr photos, but will hopefully also assist you in becoming a better photographer yourself.

Now, let’s get started by reviewing some of my Flickr photos I uploaded in December 2017, shall we?

CERN – Geneva, Switzerland – 2017 10 28 – 25 – Copyright © 2017 Ivan Coninx

  • Comments: CERN (Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire) is the European Organization for Nuclear Research, an institute where physicists and engineers probe the fundamental structure of the universe. They use the world’s largest and most complex scientific instruments to study the basic constituents of matter – the fundamental particles. The particles are made to collide together at close to the speed of light. The process gives the physicists clues about how the particles interact, and provides insights into the fundamental laws of nature. CERN was established in 1954 and is based in Meyrin, a northwest suburb of Geneva on the Franco-Swiss border. This photo depicts the permanent exhibition ‘Universe of Particles’ inside The Globe of Science and Innovation at CERN.
