The daily update from the Belgian crisis centre shows that 170 people died of COVID-19 on Monday and that 172 people were hospitalised, bringing the total number of people in hospital to 4,976. All very encouraging news! The not so good news was that we learned from an article published in Nature Medicine that half of all infections are passed on by people before they come down with coronavirus symptoms. In addition, we do not expect to have a vaccine in the months to come and herd immunity in all European countries is poor. The lifting of the lockdown will need to be managed with great care. As part of this exit strategy a lot of store is put in targeted testing and contact tracing: people who have been in contact with somebody who comes down with corona are alerted to this fact by their GP.  Noodling on the pro’s and con’s of my smart phone registering all people that I come across on my corona walks I keep snapping away my beloved city as it unrolls before my eyes. Stay Safe, Stay Healthy – Muinkplein, 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!
