16 November 2020: Update on The Corona Pandemic – I find it hard to find beacons of light that might lighten up my day. Yes, the corona statistics continue to improve in Belgium, but the number of fatalities is still on the rise. The measures that were implemented to curb the further spread of the virus are paying off, but some people find it increasingly hard to comply to the rules and it puts a strain on the relationship between the police and some youngsters. Yesterday in Brussels 3 officers were injured when they were attacked during a corona check. Meanwhile, in the US the virus is surging, breaking infection records across the country. Whilst more and more people are wondering if Trump is attempting a coup or is just throwing another tantrum the country is surpassing 11 million infections as of yesterday and is facing the most dangerous public health crisis since the 1918 influenza pandemic, which killed an estimated 50 million people worldwide.  For me, as indeed for many in these difficult days, walking and capturing my hometown as it unfolds in front of my eyes continues to be a lifeline to sanity. On display today is the “Book Tower”. The tower is part of the Ghent University Library and houses more 3 million books – Boekentoren, Ghent, Belgium.

    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. 




    "Success is the ability to go from failure to failure, without a loss of enthusiasm” 
    Sir Winston Churchill
    Therefore, I Am A Believer Of  "All Critiques Are Valid". Thank You!
