28 July 2020: Corona Crisis Update From The Black Forest

28/7/2020

As expected the Belgian government introduced additional restrictions to prevent the rapid and “worrying” increase in coronavirus infections from becoming a full-blown second wave. From tomorrow, and for at least the next four weeks, social bubbles will be reduced to a maximum of 5 fixed people per household. As of tomorrow, also shopping needs tobe done alone and everyone will be allowed to stay in a shop for a maximum of 30 minutes, telework is again strongly advised and one is required to register and leave contact details in wellness centers, sports classes and restaurants and pubs. The good news is that Janssen Pharmaceutica, the Antwerp based division of the American multinational Johnson & Johnson. has started testing on humans a vaccine that it hopes will offer protection against the novel coronavirus. The tests will be carried out both here in Belgium and in the United States. The original plan was to commence testing on humans in September. However, research on the development of the vaccine is running ahead of schedule. At the risk of being accused of behaving irresponsibly and out of touch with the fact that a merciless virus is killing people around the world we decided to continue to enjoy long hikes in the Black Forest - Haslachschlucht, Black Forest, Baden-Württemberg, Germany

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”

Therefore, I Am A Believer Of "All Critiques Are Valid". Thank You!

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.
