Sunday in Ghent Photo

Photographer’s Note

A postcard style shot from Ghent.
It was Sunday and everybody was out to get what little sun and warmth was available in May. (There was even beach volley ball on in the main square.)
Down by the river the crowds were enjoying life, food and beer as you would expect along such a beautiful stretch of river.

Hi Ian,
A nice shot of my home town! I was born in Gent and lived there for 23 years. You were lucky to have the sun. This was the harbour of Gent in the Middle Ages.
A pitty that you missed Luxemburg. Next time you come to Europe you should visit it. Let me know and I'll show you around.
Greetings
John
