The Floraliën - Ghent flower festival

2/5/2022

28 April marked the first day of festivities for the Floraliën Ghent flower festival. Covering 8,500 square metres in Ghent’s Citadel Park, the festival features creations by 295 florists. One of the leading themes of the exhibition is a floral interpretation of The Mystic Lamb. Also known as The Adoration of the Mystic Lamb, the renowned 15th-century altarpiece painted by brothers Jan and Hubert Van Eyck. Another theme of this year’s festival is ‘My Paradise, a Worldly Garden’, featuring a variety of flora. The festival hopes to showcase that paradise by presenting Ghent as a green city.

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!

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.
