Open Art Studio Day ! I missed it last year, and the year before, I was still on Insta… (ugh)

But it’s always lovely to have a wander round artists’ studios and discover their work.

During my rehabilitation (which, in fact, isn’t quite over yet)

But here I am, clearly on my way to the physiotherapist again, with the #Pentax17 in my pocket.

I ended up in an operating theatre again (nothing serious), but it does make you think… Life or death would take some strange twists and turns if I were to end up in this cemetery. But bear in mind, it’s always just around the corner !

I’m noticing how long the film lingers in my half-frame camera !

It was a concert at Bozar in Brussels, and I still remember that day because… Just before the concert, whilst in the bar, we watched on our mobiles as Wout van Aert won the 2026 Paris–Roubaix race. An unforgettable moment for a Belgian (where were you when #WoutvanAert won ?)

It’s a bit of a new story, and yet an old one
What’s new? This is the first time I’ve used a lab other than my usual one in Ghent
(I’ve been using it my whole analogue life in Ghent)
But not so long ago, I said:
The lab in #ghent I’ve been using all my life (and get very little credit for) has had its full-frame negative scanner break down. So I’m missing my proof that I don’t crop my photos… sorry about that !!

Anyway #Morilab #brussels

And now I’m noticing how long the film lingers in my half-frame camera
On 20 April, I said :
