About Me

My photo
Antwerp, Belgium
Welcome to the new, and improved version of Heaven in Belgium. I am Jientje. "Jientje", like the boys name Gene, followed by "chu"? "Gene-chu", that's how you pronounce my name. Yes!!!!That's it!! So now you know huh? I am an addicted blogger. I was born and raised and am still living in Belgium. Yeah, the "this-is- Tuesday-so-this-must-be-Brussels" kind of Belgium .. There, you see? Maybe you couldn't find it on the map, but at least I'm trying to change that a little by sharing lots of pictures. I really love to cook and create new things, like this blog for instance. I am a mother,a grandmothe and a wife too! They say I'm a traveler, and a photographer. Well that's just what they say, I love to make pictures, but I am far from professional ... If my English is not perfect, that would be because it's my second language. I do hope you'll forgive me any possible misspellings or strange vocabulary ... Now, as a result of all of the above, I get way too little sleep and my days are always much too short!

Lighthouse, playing with the light

No lighthouse without a light, and this was a real invitation to get creative with the camera. It was fun to play with the subject a little,

Jientje! I had to scroll up and down to get my perspective and figure out how things fit in. I love a challenge and the textures, colors, angles, and subject matter all fit the bill. I totally agree with you on the abstract. That last one would be interesting standing alone. I'd love to know what people thought it was. :)

You could actually blow these up and frame them. Love the colors!

You made something so old, look so industrial.
Amazing!

This looked like a lot of fun. That's what I enjoy doing, too - getting all sorts of different angles.
