One side of the future Magritte Museam, in Brussels, still in construction. The huge building is all covered by the great painters famours works - naturally I got the blue side. Happy week to all - enjoy ... and visit it if you can.

A misty and very atmospheric sunrise at the Bourgoyen-Ossemeersen nature reserve. Nature slowly wakes up and gets ready for a new day.

In my album 1914-1918 Remembered.
This image was captured last week. Until then we haven't had any real winter weather. The water is covered with a very thin layer of ice. I love the contrast between the warm and cold colors.
Go out and shoot even if the conditions don’t look right. I need to remind myself this very thing once in a while. Glad I did that morning. The colors in the sky where just incredible.
In one of my projects I set out to photograph this location at least once a month. Same location, same composition. The idea is to create a time lapse to document the changes throughout the year. This image is a candidate for the month of December.
Gruuthusehof (Gruuthuse Hof, est. 1751) is one of the oldest restaurants in Bruges.
Gruuthusehof is located at a historic crossroads, with Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekerk (Church of Our Lady, thirteenth–fifteenth century), Gruuthusemuseum (Gruuthuse City Palace Museum), and old Sint-Janshospitaal (St John’s Hospital Museum) located nearby.

Don't you just love conditions like this? Maybe a tiny bit more mist but I'm nitpicking now. The rising sun casts a golden glow on the scene, lighting it on fire. And I enjoyed every second of it watching it happen!
During World War I, Poperinge was part of a small piece of unoccupied territory in Belgium. Far away from the turmoil of the Ypres’ front, the city became the nerve centre of the British war industry. In the centre of this busy city, chaplains Neville Talbot and Philip “Tubby” Clayton opened a club house in December 1915 where no distinction in rank or status was made. For three years, all soldiers could enjoy rare moments of peace and entertainment at Talbot House. Just like it was a hundred years ago, the House still represents a peaceful stop along the course of the “Great War” in Flanders Fields today.

I haven’t touched my camera for a while now. Summer is not the most interesting season for a landscape photographer and my inspiration was in a dip. But last week I visited the Kalmthoutse Heide and took my camera gear with me. The heather is in bloom right now. I was presented with wonderful weather conditions. Before sunrise there was a blanked of mist covering the heathland. Time for some minimalistic images.
An amazing new piece or architecture in Gent, De Krook is a public library (COUSSEE & GORIS Architecte). I had to merge several vertical panoramic shots to get the full reflection, even with my 1635 lens at 16mm... I'll definitively have to go back to this building, this was a "quick shot" during the Light Festival of Gent...
Un incroyable nouveau bâtiment dans le centre de Gand, la bibliothèque publique De Krook (COUSSEE & GORIS Architecte). J'ai assemblé plusieurs panoramas verticaux pour réussir à intégrer la totalité des reflets dans la photo, même au 16mm... Il faudra définitivement que je revienne faire une session plus approfondie de ce bâtiment, là c'était un "quickie" pendant le festival des lumières de Gand...
Made quite a few attempts at this location but I finally had the right conditions. It didn't look good when I arrived. But then, just before sunrise, the mist began to form and transferred the scene into magic. Patience is a virtue!
Old barn in my home town. Shot this old barn many times before, in different conditions and light. It’s close to my home and the sunset was looking promising. So a good excuse for a little walk. There was quite a bit of wind but that creates a bit of tension in the scene.

A mountain river works its way through the autumn landscape. The foam on the water creates a flow motion. Autumn is probably my most favorite season of the year!
Image captured at a small local woodland. This woodland can be quite challenging after a downpour. As a result there are not a lot of people hiking in this woodland. This is a photographer’ dream…
Another image at the Oude Durme river. And another reflection. The sunrise didn't really materialize but instead I was treated with these dramatic clouds.

The entrance to Zoo Antwerpen is located on Astridplein (Astrid Square), right next to Station Antwerpen-Centraal (Central Station), in the centre of the city.
The zoo features exceptionally well kept gardens, almost certainly the most beautiful in Antwerp. Many of the gardens feature beautiful sculptures created with flowers and shrubbery.
