About this image
Willemstad is the capital city of Curaçao, an island in the southern Caribbean Sea that forms a constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Formerly the capital of the Netherlands Antilles prior to its dissolution in 2010, it has an estimated population of 150,000. The historic center of the city consists of four quarters: the Punda and Otrobanda, which are separated by the Sint Anna Bay, an inlet that leads into the large natural harbor called the Schottegat, as well as the Scharloo and Pietermaai Smal quarters, which are across from each other on the smaller Waaigat harbor. Willemstad is home to the Curaçao synagogue, the oldest surviving synagogue in the Americas. The city center, with its unique architecture and harbor entry, has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The Queen Emma Bridge is a pontoon bridge across St. Anna Bay in Curaçao. It connects the Punda and Otrobanda quarters of the capital city, Willemstad. The bridge is hinged and opens regularly to enable the passage of oceangoing vessels. On the opposite end from the hinge is a small shelter where an operator controls two diesel engines turning propellers. The propellers are mounted perpendicular to the length of the bridge and allow it to swing parallel to the shore. The process only takes a few minutes to complete.

What my clients say
We selected a photo of Adams that we felt captured the beauty of the Chicago downtown river walk area and asked him to apply a brushed filter in a large format of approximately 70” x 50”. It was printed on a large canvas and box framed . It tuned out FABULOUS! Wish I could attach a photo of it hanging in our foyer so you could appreciate the beauty we are enjoying! Overall experience was wonderful and the artist is a pleasure to work with. If I could give 10 stars I would.
I saw a beautiful picture of a lotus that would look perfect in our home, however the larger size that I needed wasn't an option for purchase. I reached out to Adam and he was quick to reply and happy to provide me with the 48 x 48 dimensions that I needed. The large canvas was shipped and arrived in perfect condition. I love it and this will bring us a lot of happiness seeing this beautiful picture placed behind our buddha fountain. We are very happy and Adam was very kind and responsive with providing me with delivery dates too.
My wife and I were looking for photos of places we have been to showcase within our home, highlighting some of the adventures that we had been on together. Adam had coincidentally been to a few of the places that we have recently seen. His eye for photography and capturing scenes that we had been to in person are superb! Looking forwards to more adventures with my wife, and seeing Adam's perspective on what those places show.
