Heute ha-ha-habe ich Geburtstag...

Ok, my birthday is not exactly today (25th September, please keep that in mind for next year ;-) ). But since I'm still celebrating, I dedicate this post to myself and make it a little guessing game for you, dear visitors.

Want to get your child's picture taken by me? Get in touch!

Holier than thou

Having to drive 60km for (really not that special) goat milk's ice-cream if you don't even like sweets? That's something that can only happen to me.. But if you add some culture to the ice-cream trip, spiced with interesting photo motives, I'm reconciled with the idea.

Here, it was the Abdij van Averbode (Averbode Abbey), where an ordination to the priesthood took place last Sunday:

The Abbey:


built in 1672:


It doesn't say anything about photography, so...


The "show" inside:




The procession:
