In 2015, I took benefit of All Saints' Day falling on a monday to take a tree days week-end and travel to Bruges in Belgium. I liked this place so much and the weather was perfect, so I decided I would return to Belgium at the same period in 2016 if the weather forecast happened to be good as well. And it was.

So I returned to Belgium, I chose to visit Antwerp and Ghent, and to have a little stop at Liège as well when traveling back. I already had been in Antwerp and Ghent some years before, but I was not addicted to photography at that time. I loved the MAS and the area around it in Antwerp, but I realy think that a vast part of the city needs refurbishment. Ghent was magnificent, specially at blue hour and night time, although the view on some of the most beautiful buildings in the old town was ruined by construction works... Anyways, I hope this shot illustrates why I loved the place.
