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.

19 May 2021: According to one of Belgium’s lead virologists, Professor Van Gucht, the figures are currently following the most optimistic forecasts. He continued that at the current rate the number of coronavirus patients on ICUs will soon fall below 500.  The total number of COVID-19 patients in our country’s hospitals stands at 1,857, a fall of 17% on a week ago. Of these 610 are on intensive care wards. During the week from 9 to 15 May an average of 2,099 people tested positive for coronavirus each day, a fall of 30% on the previous week. The positivity rate stands at 5.9% and the reproduction rate is 0,89. Speaking about the Indian variant, Professor Van Gucht told the press that there are currently 77 confirmed cases in Belgium, but that there are probably more cases than this. He added that it is still unclear how much more infectious the Indian variant is than other coronavirus variants. Most importantly of all is that he said that there is no indication that vaccines offer less protection against the Indian variant than they do against other variants. I wholeheartedly hope he is right. Today’s picture is a photo I spotted on the walls of the Ghent city museum – SMAK, 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!
