On a sunny Sunday morning Photoresk visited the Royal Greenhouses of Laeken. Open only for three weeks, once a year, one needs to be careful not to miss it. We lined up after 9 am to make sure to get in before the place gets too crowded. Surprisingly many people had managed to leave their beds […]
Night light walk
Yes, the darkness is still here, but shouldn’t we enjoy it?! Brussels put together a Bright Light Festival for a few days and, of course, Photoresk had to check it out. Light installations were surprisingly impressive for such a short event and the few of us who weren’t scared by the rainy weather got some […]
Medieval Christmas market and exhibition
We jumped to the middle ages in Siegburg, Germany, to enjoy the medieval Christmas market in town. We got invited by Alexandra, a long-time-member of Photoresk, who hasn’t forgotten our warmhearted group of photographers. She also welcomed us at her photography exhibition which made our day even more interesting when exploring the variety of portraits. […]
Mystical autumn garden
The autumn, the cold, but the colors! There is always some beauty in the gloominess of the arriving winter. You can sense the coming changes and feel inspired by them. We captured this feeling at the National Botanic Garden of Belgium in Meise. The 92 hectares and 18 000 different kinds of plants and trees […]
Halloween swing ball
Photoresk was invited to come to the HALLOWEEN SWING BALL and do some event shooting. We were terribly scared and frightened by the creatures around, but we had to do our job! So we stayed and here are the results.
Zot Day 2016
Photoresk was invited to photograph the slacklining and action event, called Zot Day, in Brussels in mid-September. We were given VIP passes to the 13th floor at Boulevard Anspach, and what a great experience this was for us. Hanging out with the slackliners, we took some nice photos for them to share and utilize in […]
Balloon’s day parade
The Brussels Comic Festival was here again last weekend and we had a meetup for the Balloon’s Day Parade on Sunday. The weather forecast scared off most of the participants, but in the end we were lucky to avoid the rain and even sun was peaking behind the clouds at times. The Photoresk group met […]
Pairi Daiza
We had heard about the baby panda born at Pairi Daiza and for a few months we waited for it to grow a little bit bigger (the newborns are simply tiny). Finally, at the end of August we organized a Photoresk meetup to visit the park. We chose Wednesday as weekends are known to be […]
Book celebration
Photoresk members got together to celebrate the new book on Brussels – Brussels Through Our Lens. The book was a collaborative effort of the group including 69 photos from more than 30 different individuals. People were excited to pick up their books and to see old friends. We had a glass of champagne to commemorate […]
Brussels flower carpet
Every two years Brussels’ Grand Place gets covered by a flower carpet consisting of nearly one million begonias. More than 100 volunteers assemble this famous tourist attraction in four hours. This year celebrating the 20th flower carpet, a beautiful Japanese design was chosen to dignify the 150 years of diplomatic relations and friendship between Belgium […]
