We get a few glimpses of Zam's hairstyle peeking out beneath her helmet, but we don't see her helmetless except in a few behind the scenes shots.

Valley Towers 

The building distinguishes itself in several ways: firstly, it combines offices, shops, catering, cultural facilities, and apartments in one building; secondly, unlike the closed-off buildings elsewhere in the Zuidas, the green valley that winds between the towers on the fourth and fifth floors is accessible to everyone via two external stone staircases. The building’s extensive planting, designed by landscape architect Piet Oudolf, hosts approximately 13,500 young plants, shrubs, and trees. As these mature over the coming years, they will give Valley an increasingly green appearance, making the building a manifesto for a greener city.

Valley is an attempt to bring a green and human dimension back to the inhospitable office environment of Amsterdam Zuidas. It is a building with multiple faces; on the outer edges of the building is a shell of smooth mirrored glass, which fits the context of the business district. Inside this shell, the building has a completely different, more inviting natural appearance, as if the glass block has crumbled away to reveal craggy rock faces inside replete with natural stone and greenery.

I have so many thoughts and nothing to do with them LOL but I can't stop thinking about Dunwall Tower... I love the atmosphere of Dishonored and the way it changes, and Return to the Tower is one of my favorite sections. In the beginning, the Tower is this bright and beautiful place, but by the end it’s so terrifying and imposing. You don’t belong here anymore but you’re trying to claw your way back in—literally, crawling through the vents instead of strolling back home as guards welcome you back. And I just love that moment when you finally get out of the vent and are looking down at the stairs and the architecture, the sharp incline and the way the red spills over the steps—this is what it looks like to people who don’t live here, who aren’t part of the palace, and probably was even before the plague—and it's such a good way to showcase that abrupt fall.

I keep thinking about the early days when Corvo would have felt extremely out of place, like the tower and Dunwall could never be his home, with so few people trying to convince him otherwise. The Tower probably seemed just as awful to him then. And there were a lot of people who felt that way to the end. as we see in the in-game notes and dialogue, but over 20 years with Jessamine and with Emily, he did see it as home. It’s especially bright and beautiful in the prologue; there is a real sense of hope when he returns even though he's bringing bad news. And Return to the Tower is him coming home for the first time, when his family is not there, the first person to make him feel at home is dead, and his world has changed, and the hostility of the map is such a perfect way to render that feeling of fear and unfamiliarity.

(Plus the potential reads that a high Chaos Corvo is trying to win back what he's lost at any cost, whereas a lower Chaos Corvo might accept that it's all circumstance, it was luck that got him his position and luck that any of them in the Tower remain there, and it's the future that matters)

Living across the river from one of the greatest cities in the world does have some advantages. I will never tire of this view.

Next Depot by TIA INTERNATIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY Via Flickr: Seattle, Washington, USA. Please enjoy a long exposure photograph featuring some exciting light trails produced by the traffic that flowed past me that evening. My fascination with light trails was what originally catapulted me into night-time photography several years ago, on a very cold night in Gastown in Vancouver. I’ll never forget that moment as I ultimately think it’s what led to everything I’ve done in photography and the people I have met since, including many of you. If some of you are familiar with the Gwyneth Paltrow movie, “Sliding Doors”, I think my discovery of light trails was my “Do I get on the train or off the train?” moment in photography. I think I’m still on the train, traveling to as many destinations as possible, always waiting for the next depot. I don’t create such photographs nearly as often anymore, so this image is essentially a tribute (and personal reminder) to why I love and continue to experiment with photography.
