Visitor’s Digest is my daily photo column. Sometimes it's one picture, other times a set — always with short notes about place, light, timing, or a personal detail. It’s my way of documenting the world around me, from city streets to coastal towns, in a simple and reflective way.

Scottish pipers gather in a narrow alley moments before joining the Gentse Feesten parade. Before the music filled the streets, there was a brief moment to prepare, tune the instruments and wait for the parade to begin.

Photographed at the Korenmarkt on the opening day of the Gentse Feesten. A breakdance performance was one of the many street acts that transform Ghent each summer, quite literally turning the city upside down for ten days.
Photographed from the upper deck of the Dom Luís I Bridge, this image overlooks Porto's Ribeira district, part of the city's UNESCO World Heritage Site. The waterfront lights are still on as the first daylight reveals the historic façades along the Douro River.
I took this image during an early morning walk on the beach at Cadzand-Bad. The first sunlight caught the edge of a retreating wave, creating a simple pattern of light and movement along the shoreline.
I took this image during one of my early morning walks near the small harbor of Cadzand-Bad. Looking north along the North Sea coast, the distant skyline of Vlissingen emerges through the morning haze across the entrance to the Westerschelde. A small group of shorebirds and the reflections on the wet sand completed the scene.
I took this image from the Museum of the Future on 31 December 2025, looking towards Business Bay and Dubai Design District (d3). The reflection transforms Dubai's skyline into an almost symmetrical composition, blurring the line between the city and its mirror image.
Much of what is visible here has been built within the past two decades. The photograph captures a city that continues to evolve, with new roads, construction sites and high-rise buildings reshaping the landscape. I took this image near the marina in Cadzand-Bad. The geometry of the building first caught my eye. A woman enjoying a quiet morning on her balcony completed the scene.
I took this image from the balcony of Hotel De Blanke Top in Cadzand-Bad. Sunset photographs are probably among the most photographed images in the world, and they don't often find their way into my portfolio. But this evening was simply too beautiful and too peaceful not to press the shutter.
A herring gull helping itself to the remains of breakfast at Hotel De Blanke Top in Cadzand. I'm not their biggest fan. There's probably a reason many people refer to them as "flying rats."
I took this image from Room 406 of Hotel De Blanke Top in Cadzand-Bad. Four figures stood on the balcony overlooking the North Sea. It was one of those moments that seemed worth preserving.
