Belgio, Fiandre Occidentali, Bruges, Primavera 2015
Bruges è la capitale delle Fiandre occidentali, in Belgio. Il centro storico della città è un importante patrimonio dell'umanità dell'UNESCO. Insieme ad alcune città del nord costituite da canali, come Amsterdam e Stoccolma, si è meritata l’appellativo di "Venezia del Nord". Un tempo, si è considerata la città commerciale leader nel mondo. Nel corso del 15° secolo lo Zwin, la via d'acqua che collega Bruges al mare, si insabbiò. Quando la sede della Lega Anseatica fu spostata ad Anversa alla fine del 15° secolo, molti mercanti la seguirono, lasciando case abbandonate, strade deserte e canali vuoti. Bruges, in precedenza centro commerciale d'Europa, ha dormito per 400 anni. La città è lentamente emersa dal suo sonno nel 19 ° secolo, scoperta dai turisti che passavano nei dintorni diretti verso il campo di battaglia di Waterloo vicino a Bruxelles.
Bruges is the capital of the West Flanders in Belgium. The historic city centre is a prominent World Heritage Site of UNESCO. Along with a few other canal-based northern cities, such as Amsterdam and Stockholm, it is sometimes referred to as "The Venice of the North". At one time, it was considered the "chief commercial city" of the world. During the 15th century the Zwin, the waterway linking Bruges to the sea, silted up. When the headquarters of the Hanseatic League moved from Bruges to Antwerp at the end of the 15th century, many merchants followed, leaving abandoned houses, deserted streets and empty canals. Bruges, a former hub of Europe, slept for 400 years. The city slowly emerged from its slumber in the early 19th century as tourists passed through en route to the Waterloo battlefield near Brussels.

Lange Wapper est un vilain bonhomme qui se transforme en géant ou en nain selon les circonstances. Il joue les pires tours aux Anversois, surtout à ceux qui on trop bu. Pour le déstabiliser et le mettre en fuite (voire l'obliger à sauter dans l'Escaut pour y mourir) les gens ont trouvé une parade, installer une statuette de la Vierge sur la façade de leur maison.
Le sculpteur Albert Poels l'a immortalisé devant l'entrée du Steen.
Lange Wapper is a wicked fellow who transforms into a giant or a dwarf depending on the circumstances. He plays the worst tricks on the people of Antwerp, especially those who have had too much to drink. To unsettle him and drive him away (or even force him to jump into the Scheldt to meet his end), people found a solution: placing a statuette of the Virgin on their house’s façade.
The sculptor Albert Poels immortalized him in front of the entrance to the Steen.

Hier le temps très doux avait un avant-goût de printemps. Un temps parfait pour flâner dans les rues d'Anvers.
Cette photo est un accident : j'avais gardé par mégarde les réglages de la dernière photo prise il y a quelque jours. Je la publie telle quelle après avoir transformé les couleurs.

Sometimes the beauty of a landscape shows itself in places where you can't go and place a tripod, so you have to invent something like photographing on the fly from the passenger window.
Anversa dall’auto
A volte la bellezza di un paesaggio si mostra in punti in cui non puoi andare a piazzare un cavalletto e quindi devi inventarti qualcosa come fotografare al volo dal finestrino passeggero.
