Last year we were in Korea, and a few weeks ago in Alsace, France... And what do you get when you’re unexpectedly upgraded to the hotel’s penthouse rooms ? A touch of oriental style !

I think, looking at this photo, that I’m a bit further along in my rehabilitation and can already hold the viewfinder up to my eye !

The smallest camera I own is the Yashica Electro35 MC

So I’d tested it beforehand to see if I could actually operate it with my left hand.
It was also the first time I’d used colour film in my tiny little Yashica

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 !!


It’s an unbelievably small and charming little #camera… #analog is timeless. #filmphotography #ishootfilm #grainisgood #film #yashicaelectro35 #colorfilm #kodakgold #kodak #hospital #surgery #lefthand #bandage #alsace #france #orientalism #bonsai

After visiting the M HKA and FOMU, I was walking through the South Park in Antwerp when I was approached in a friendly manner by two young girls who were roller-skating. They asked me what time it was. And although this might be a very ordinary experience, I found it quite remarkable. There is kindness and trust towards a man who is old to them, and they themselves aren’t walking around with a mobile phone that they’re constantly staring at.

I do still strike up conversations with strangers from time to time, but I feel it’s a bit harder than it used to be

Whenever I end up in Antwerp, I usually visit a few museums
And at the M HKA — Museum of Contemporary Art, there’s always something interesting to see...
A previous time I didn't have a shoulder problem and was able to work with a “better” camera .. https://pixelfed.social/p/LievenSymaeys/818596879479935885

Now I'm surprised by the results from my little Yashica ! But you can tell from the details that I wasn't quite able to frame it properly yet.

Anyway, the exhibition was interesting, but the video of the performance was especially impressive. Maybe you can find something online about :
