One day during the week I had to go to The Hague to pick up some prints for an exhibition in April. Afterwards, I went for a brief walk in and around Chinatown. I don’t know The Hague very well, so it was a walk of discovery. The weather was nice, and so main image is a street illuminated by the late afternoon sun.
\nMain<\/strong>:
\n\"9526\"<\/p>\n


\nThe alternates<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

The first two alternates were also made during that same walk in The Hague.
\nAlternate 1:<\/em>
\nThe entrance to a “smart shop”, which is Dutch for a head shop that also sells hallucinogenic mushrooms and the like:
\n\"9529\"<\/p>\n

Alternate 2:<\/em>
\nA half-headless statue:
\n\"9530\"<\/p>\n

The remaining images are from Sunday afternoon in Brussels. I was there to attend the vernissage of an exhibition at the American Women’s Club in Rhode-St-Genese, in which I also had a couple of images. <\/p>\n

Alternate 3:<\/em>
\nAs is usually the case at such events, some people studied the images seriously:
\n\"9632crop\"<\/p>\n

Alternate 4:<\/em>
\nTrevor Waldron, an English photographer living in Brussels, shows the President of Women’s Club around the exhibition:
\n\"9626\"<\/p>\n

Alternate 5:<\/em>
\nOther visitors used the vernissage as a social event, in their own ways:
\n\"9651\"<\/p>\n

Alternate 6:<\/em>
\nThis little boy was not interested in images:
\n\"9642\"<\/p>\n

Alternate 7:<\/em>
\nNot at all interested in the images:
\n\"9643\"<\/p>\n

After the vernissage, we drove to the suburb of Overijse, where we lived from 1995 to 2000. We wanted to show our daughter where she had spent the first 5 years of her life. The last three alternates are from there.<\/p>\n

Alternate 8:<\/em>
\nThe guard dog (?) of a shop on Stationstraat, the main street in Overijse:
\n\"9654\"<\/p>\n

Alternate 9:<\/em>
\nWe lived in this house for five years. It is now being remodeled and is for rent again:
\n\"9658\"<\/p>\n

Alternate 10:<\/em>
\nThis used to be our backyard view. My children used to play on the now defunct swing in the corner:
