Jessie and I went out wandering and found this old room in the city, even the ceiling has a beautiful painting on it.
Gert asked me where it is, I had no real idea. It's one that I always find by accident.
So there I was, wondering what it might have been when the camera clicked and she had me ... a photograph of that rarely captured breed known as the photographer ;)
I left New Zealand mid-2003, bound for Istanbul and a new lif. After two years, a Belgian guy lured me into his world, deep in the heart of Europe. For a long time I was an in-process immigrant. One day we married. These days it's about photography, a little red wine and wandering ... and so the journey goes.

A winter's day out walking ...

And the room was open? With nobody inside? Nor a name tag or price tag?
I really wonder how big Antwerp is, since you discover new place everyday that no one knows about.
LOL Di, you never cease to amaze me :-)
Great shot, I have been wondering too where exactly in Antwerp(en) it could have been taken.
If you post more details I may be able to locate the building (I need a street, a monument, anything that may give me a clue)
[smiling] Did you have absolutely no idea where you actually were when you took this shot? :-))
The room was open, it's part of a complex that has an information notice outside it, and an information/gift shop attached. There are people working in offices there too ... hmmm, I posted about it before I think.
I've been there before but always find it by accident Manic.
Peter, I had to smile but yes, I really don't know precisely where it is ... but we were on our way to Via Via Cafe and we may have detoured - it's in that vicinity but I can't remember why we detoured. I realised when Gert asked me where it was, I started talking and had no idea.
Going to search my blog, I think I've posted on it before ...
I never know how to find my way back to the places I've been.
This is why we're "women wandering."
Lol yes v-grrrl ... and really we're lost. Rome is the only place I did okay in but I think it was because I was mostly alone and not being too lost was imperative.
My first apartment in Istanbul for everyone to find, me included for that first couple of months.
