1,427 cars were lifted from the bottom of North Sea

Car carrier Baltic Ace collided with container ship Corvus J on 5 December 2012. Luckily, despite major damages Corvus J had survided and got to the port without any assitance, but less luck got Baltic Ace. She sunk in only about 15 minutes with cars on board.

The accident happened around 72 km from the coast of the Netherlands in one of the busiest sail routes of the North Hinder Junction. The weather was quite normal, the route is well-known but still they collided.

The rescue team saved 13 crewmembers from the floating raft near the wreckage. However, 11 more seamen were reported dead. The chances to find them alive were virtually zero already 12 hours after the accident because of freezing waters of the North Sea.  

Baltic ace was caring brand new cars from Zeebruge port in Belgium to Kotka, Finland. Brand new Mitsubise’s and other luxurious cars mainly aimed were for Russian market. All these nice cars you can see below. 

For two years 148m long ship lied down in the sea causing the danger for the other ships by being just 6m below the sea level. Boskalis and Mammoet Salvage sucked 500 tones of fuel, split the ship in 6 parts and salvage the wreck in over the period of 18 months. I found these parts now laying in port of Rotterdam. I found the scene just terrific. My breath was on hold all the time I pressed shutter button on my camera.

Sneakers How They Are

From the beginning to the end only twelve minutes of your time!

My chosen area is sneakers or in other words sport shoes which became fabulously popular in recent years. Today sport shoes became day to day thing that people wear. You have thousands of models on the market. When you enter store your eyes start focus from one model to another and your brain got confused by the number of choices you have. Some of the choices you immediately exclude, because they are too expensive or you simply do not like them. After spending around 15 minutes on the analysis you finally gets favorite model to try on.

Mind Map

Just to clarify

This blog is part of a project within the course Visual Knowledge Building. The project is very flexible as our University Professors made only one remark: it should be about you and it should be Europe-focused. We got some good advice on which social media platforms we can work with, and one of them was Wordpress. I heard about this platform around year ago and, to be honest, I have a complicated relationship with it… so, I decided to go in a different direction.

Steve Jobs Empire

It was very inspiration speech from business point of view and also from communication point of view. It is clearly seen that Stave Jobs wrote it by himself, correct it, re-wrote it, and again polished it. This Article is a part of Visual Communication Course; I received assignment to analyze this article from visual communication point of view. I need to keep it short, I have only 300 words though. So clean and to the point, also I put full speech below, so you can watch it and tell me your reaction on it too!

Fashions' Issue - Springy Choice

Springly Choice

This issue is about how we meet others people by their appearance, not by their thinking. We go to the parties and do not even speak there. We just dance and having good time more or less wasted a good buzz. But our style, appearance, pathos, class does play important role here. You choose your outfit based on the event you are going to. Therefore I made sort of article to help people get rid of swag and proceed to the whole next level.
