A bright OK sign lights up, unnecessary yet reassuring, as a tram slowly but finally starts moving. Public transport had been in gridlock for hours on a rainy autumn day.
A record of places, people, and passing moments.
A solitary cobblestone path stretched into the darkness, illuminated by a single streetlamp. It was a cold December night in the quiet town of Monsaraz, Portugal. I had been sick for most of my stay, but now, the crisp air, though biting, felt strangely invigorating.
This was shot on a sweltering August day. My friend S. and I had hiked to his cabin for a full 24 hours of off-grid living. Happy to have arrived, we drank a few beers. I eventually laid myself down, looking out at this view, and fell asleep shortly after.
A. and I had benefited from mild autumn weather by enjoying a long walk in the Kalmthoutse Heide, Belgium. We had packed lunch, which we ate sitting atop a fallen tree just beyond this view. It was a beautiful day.
Here’s to mild inebriation, an eagerness to walk and discover, and my friend’s willingness to pose. This moment was captured in a vacant washing salon in Deurne, Belgium.
Looking out over the beach from a boardwalk cafe. It had been an incredibly hot day, and by the time of capture temperature had just about become bearable. The town of Luz, Portugal, otherwise packed with people, feels desolate. I shot from the hip but never quite captured what I intended to.
A curious structure resembling a lighthouse stands silent watch near the entrance of Vila Caia, Mira, Portugal. Parts are overgrown with weeds; cracks scar its facade. We had chosen this campsite for practical reasons but were delighted to find it was full with the kitsch remains of a past grandeur.
Clouds almost mirror the landscape in this view of the Three Rondavels in Graskop, South Africa. It had been overcast all day and I was becoming increasingly regretful that I could not show my friends this sight. Luckily, we chose to wait.
Bright smiles, as the faces of my friends finally become illuminated. Though it is unclear from the photo, mounting this fixture had turned out to be challenging. Shot on our very first day at home in Antwerp.
Mist hides the horizon of the Kruibeekse Polder, making what lies beyond seemingly continue forever.
