I made a trip to Leuven to attend a meeting there. The first day it rained, but the second day there was sunshine and +7 °C. Quite a change from Finland. Here are some photographs from the trip.

I bought 1 kg of Belgian chocolate and 1.5 kg of Spanish and Italian wine. Today we had chicken fajitas at home, and the bottle of Marques de Riscal Rioja Reserva 2005 went fine with it, and also with the chocolate we had for dessert.

Some strong images in this set and some previous sets. I imagine you spend a lot of your time surrounded by modern buildings and infrastructure -- it shows in the bold graphical elements of these images.

You seem to appreciate (perhaps are fascinated by) modern architecture?

Well, architecture provides plenty of lines and curves to compose with.

Years and years ago I was interested in architecture as a profession - but in the end I went to study mathematics and physics instead.
