For the second time, I have participated to the Randonnée d'Artistes de Rixensart (could be translated by Artist's Walk) and it has just ended. I spent two week-ends welcoming visitors attracted by my exhibition....

It has been a very long time since my last post with some of my pictures!
Summer has not inspired me much this year. Before showing some of my more recent pictures (autumn is always more productive for me), I still wanted to share a small set of pictures from this summer.

The Halle wood (Hallerbos) is a very popular place to visit if you like enjoying natural beauty (and perfume) in Belgium. It is really worth a visit during the flowering of the sea of bluebells that is the main characteristic of this wood.

Spring is in full swing now and this is also the best time to visit the Halle wood. This year, March and April have been warm and dry months here in Belgium and I have the feeling that flowering of the bluebells (and other flowers), as well as appearance of leaves on trees, have taken place earlier than usual.
The following pictures are the results of my four visits to the Halle wood over the course of three weeks in April.

It has now been almost 6 months since my last post. Time to catch up ! Here are first a few pictures taken during some of my summer walks or mountain bike rides close to my home. If you are interested in beautiful places full of flowers...

Unfortunately, the weather was not... The light was far from good and the colours are rather flat. But here are my two favorite pictures of the day.
[vc_row][vc_column][az_column_text]This Saturday, I woke up early (5:30 AM !) to try and capture in a picture what I see almost every day on my way to work. Even if it is not pure nature, the view is usually worth looking at.

As a small present for the birthday of a friend, here are a couple of "Intrigantes" taken last year in the Halle wood. You can see more of these "Intrigantes" in my galleries.
