This blog is about life as it unfolds around me. What I’m seeing, hearing or reading is sometimes beautiful, surreal, ugly, paradoxical and complex. It’s a little bit of everything and a little bit of nothing but I hope it’s unique in its own right.

459 new patients were admitted to the hospital in the last 24 hours, and 483 new people have also been discharged, bringing the total number of people in the hospital because of the coronavirus at the moment to 5,590. This is a further decrease, with 98 patients. A little bit of good news. Unfortunately, the total number of deaths in Belgium since the beginning of the pandemic is currently 2,523. The government keep stressing that If we want to enjoy the summer later, we will have to persevere now. One of Belgian’s lead virologist said yesterday that the measures currently in place to tackle the spread of the coronavirus will only be reduced slowly, and it could take a year before everything is back to normal. Anyway, we will know more next Wednesday when the National Security Council, which decided on the measures to contain the coronavirus as well as their extension until 19 April, will meet again. They will likely discuss the possible extension of the lockdown measures beyond 19 April, until 3 May, according to the Belga press agency. The measures implemented to control Covid 19 have been more or less imposed uniformly in Europe and are draconian enough that it is very likely that in Europe we will see the largest quarterly decline in economic activity since 1933. Just as important as economical figures is the value of restoring a sense of normality and well-being, with physical isolation eased. For us, it is about getting back to the lives we loved!

    About Me

    I just like to take pictures, I just push the button. I never worked in the darkroom, I never studied photography or journalism; I’m just a passionate photographer.

    ​For a long time I used to take pictures - like so many of us - to capture memories of family holidays and events. Over time I’ve found that experiences are deepened and one notices things more intensely by thinking visually. I came to enjoy the quality of light, amazing reflections, geometrical forms and colours. Ever since, I have been determined to take my skills to the next level. I also want to share my work with a much larger audience, because I truly believe that the only way to keep feeding one’s inspiration, creativity, and ultimately getting better at what one is passionate about, is to invite others to critique my work.
