9 May 2020 Update from A Locked Down Ghent

9/5/2020

Yesterday we saw a further fall in the number of hospitalized COVID-19 patients. Still, 107 deaths from COVID-19 were reported, bringing total number of deaths to 8,521. It is guesstimated that 6% of the population has antibodies against the virus, therefore, “herd immunity” won’t provide a way out of the current public health crisis. In addition, it is far from certain as to whether those that have had the virus are immune and there is still no certainty about the length of immunity. A solution will have to be found elsewhere. This together with a relaxation of the lockdown measures and a drop of public support to adhere to the new guidelines makes us concerned for a resurgence of the infection. Despite all of this, I decided to cheer me up with a composition of some happy faces - Neuseplein, 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”

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.
