Well, probably while it is the 'Grote Markt', the center of Brussels, the main tourist attraction, and when future visitors (tourists) check out Brussels online,
they often end up visiting Brussels using Google Maps. Exploring the Grote Markt can be ...

At the last 'blijde intrede', a tour where the new Belgian Royals King Philippe and queen Mathilde visit all provinces of Belgium, last but not least they visited Brussels.

Yes this is where I work from. Between my livingroom and the kithchen, so everyting at reach! Just a small peek into the private/working live of a photographer. I used to rent a studio but I just love working from home.

Another photography award. It took a lot of time just uploading your work. It seems the quality of photography nowadays depends of your social network. Yes, I am a loner. I work alone, I photograph alone and I'm not even on Facebook. And I don't have time to share my work, or to upload my work to ev...

Leica M9 Well, I dreamed about this the last twenty years. I sold Leicas when I worked in a professional camera-shop, I tried Leicas because of that, as much as I wanted and I even went to Leica Germany, as part of my 'education' as a salesman 20 years ago. But I never saw myself as a Leica-man. And now, fi...

Bart de Wever NV-A Ik was voor een andere opdracht op de Wetstraat 10 en liep Bart weer tegen het lijf. Aangezien daar al vijf andere fotografen van agentschappen staan is zo'n foto dus waardeloos. Helaas.
