circus (II)

Partenaire de scène de Laura, après le maquillage (non?), avant l'habillage (si!).

Circus (I)

Laura Coll, juste avant une représentation. On se connait depuis 7 ans. Un de nos sujets de conversations préférés sont les crottes de nez. Allez comprendre...

Toujours est-il que derrière son apparence de déesse, c'est une femme d'une simplicité totale! Elle a vécu un an dans "le cirque de l'oiseau fou", dans des conditions qui n'ont rien à envier à un bon service militaire. Depuis, de crotte de nez en crotte de nez, elle arrivée au Cirque du Soleil...

Et toujours aussi simple et rigolotte.

Serious George (2)

Don't screw with an ex Navy pilot...

Funny George (1)

This is probably the most serious man in Brussels, in the field of photography. George Coppers, boss of the American Color Lab.

But catch him before he gets on his Vespa, and it's another man!

Lunch alone

Eating at "Mano a mano", I couldn't help noticing the quality of the light on the table and wall next to me.

The contents of the image symbolyze loneliness. I cut the table in half, not revealing its left side. This centers the attention on the empty (lonely) chair. Furthermore, showing the other chair would have symbolized the possible presence of another person. Since the point of the picture is to represent hopeless loneliness, only a single chair could be present.

"And now, for something completely different"

When I as given the chance to photograph sporting events, I jumped in the wagon without a second thought. When the sport became football, I did frown... But what the hell! Guys running after a ball, kicking each other, fighting, pretending (famous football drama), and earning loads of cash... I thought "Why not?".

So there, I found myself watching a football match for the first time in my life. Right on the field, where I can hear players swear, see them spit, and curse the referee... Cool! :-)

Ghost Coast


The Belgian coast off season. Void of adults, children, pets, and life. Sometime you run into a lost soul, who barely notices you. Half sad. Half intriguing.
