End en day, the twilight start to fall over Brussels. Perfect time for photography.

Exploring the area around the β€œEtangs d’Ixelles”…

This image captures a high-angle view of a formal autumnal garden or courtyard under a cloudy sky. A central grassy area, bordered by gravel paths, is covered with fallen light-colored leaves. Benches are positioned on the grassy slope in the foreground and along the path.

Small, bare trees with white-painted trunks and pruned canopies line the central lawn, creating an avenue. To the right, a long, white, multi-story building with a dark pitched roof and arched ground-floor openings runs parallel to the garden. A large, dark-leaved tree partially frames the left side.

In the background, another elegant white, three-story building stands at the end of the lawn. Other structures and bare trees are visible beyond, contributing to an impression of a grand, symmetrical, and serene autumnal setting.This image captures a wide view of a formal European garden on an overcast day.
In the foreground, there are tan gravel paths covered with a scattering of fallen brown and yellow leaves. On either side of the paths, and further into the midground, are numerous tall, dark green, conical, and bell-shaped evergreen hedges, meticulously pruned. In the center of the midground, a multi-tiered circular fountain with still water reflects the cloudy sky. Several people are visible walking along the gravel paths and on the grass.
Beyond the immediate garden features, the midground opens up to expansive, well-maintained green lawns. Behind these lawns, a long, low, white building with a gray, pitched roof and numerous dormer windows stretches across the frame. To the left of this building, a taller, lighter-colored building with a prominent steeple suggests a church or chapel.
The background is filled with a mixture of trees, some still green and others showing autumn colors of yellow and brown. Above the trees and buildings, a wide, cloudy sky dominates the upper portion of the image, giving the entire scene a soft, diffused light. To the far right, a distinctive, light-colored, modern, stepped building stands out against the horizon, contrasting with the more traditional architecture of the other buildings. The overall impression is one of peaceful, well-maintained grounds under a muted sky.This image shows a serene canal lined with elegant buildings, likely at dusk or on an overcast day. The calm, dark blue-green canal water in the foreground reflects lights from the buildings and sky. Weeping willow branches frame the water on the left and right.

Across the canal, a grassy embankment with parked cars is visible, illuminated by a street lamp. The midground features a row of distinct, multi-story European-style townhouses and apartment buildings. These structures have light-colored facades, dark roofs, and numerous windows, many with warm, glowing interior lights. Balconies and ornate details add to their character. A taller, more modern building with many windows and balconies is on the far left.

A single tree with green-yellow leaves stands on the left side of the far bank. The sky above is a uniform, pale grey-blue. The overall impression is one of peaceful urban charm, with the glowing windows creating warmth against the cool, dim light.This image captures a vibrant city scene at dusk or night, looking across a wide body of dark blue water towards a lit-up cityscape, framed by an autumnal tree in the foreground.
On the far left, a large, dark tree trunk with bare, intricate branches and a few clusters of dried, reddish-brown leaves rises, suggesting autumn or early winter. At the bottom right, a person with reddish-brown hair, wearing a dark jacket, sits by the water's edge, looking out.
The midground is dominated by the dark, deep blue water of a river or canal. Its calm surface reflects the bright yellow and white lights from the opposite bank in shimmering vertical streaks. A small, dark object, possibly a boat, is visible on the water.
On the far bank, the brightly lit city skyline features a long row of multi-story buildings with illuminated windows. A large, grey stone church with a tall, pointed spire and turrets dominates the center-left. To its left, a taller, modern building also stands out. Streetlights cast pools of light, and faint car headlights or taillights can be seen along a road.
The sky above the cityscape is a dark, clear blue, transitioning from lighter near the horizon. The overall impression is one of a lively urban evening, with warm city lights reflecting on the dark water, creating a sense of combined peace and activity.

After my compost expedition, I stopped at a friend's place, had a late lunch, and explored walking in the Ixelles neighbourhood.

Nice to have a personal local guide :-)

This photo captures a bustling city square or plaza with numerous people seated at outdoor tables and chairs, suggesting a cafe or restaurant area. The ground is paved with cobblestones and scattered with fallen autumn leaves. On the left, a building with a dark awning houses a cafe, with its outdoor seating area partially covered by a glass or transparent canopy adorned with string lights. Several people are sitting at tables in this area. To the right and extending into the center, many empty black metal chairs and small tables are arranged on the cobblestones, waiting for patrons. Large trees with golden-yellow autumn leaves are prominent on both sides of the square. In the background, multi-story brick buildings line the street, and more people can be seen walking or gathering further down the street. The sky is overcast, and the overall atmosphere is that of an active urban space in autumn.This image displays a row of three distinct townhouses, characteristic of European urban architecture, under a muted, overcast sky. The central house is light grey with white trim, featuring bay windows on the ground and first floors, and a small balcony on the first floor adorned with some climbing, yellow-leaved plants. A set of concrete steps leads up to its main entrance. Below the steps is a white garage door. To its left, a building with light brickwork and black wrought-iron balconies stands. To the right, another building with a light-colored facade features a large bay window on the upper floor and a climbing green plant covering part of its front. All three houses have multiple windows and intricate details, and a black metal fence with decorative elements runs along the front of the properties, bordering a cobblestone sidewalk.This is a close-up shot of a section of an old brick building, showcasing its textured red-orange bricks and several windows. The windows have distinct arched or rectangular shapes with dark frames, and some reflect the cloudy sky. A thick, vibrant green vine with numerous leaves, some tinged with yellow, prominently climbs up the facade, spreading across the bricks and even reaching towards a dark wrought-iron balcony railing visible on the right. Small white triangular flags are strung across the top part of the image, adding a decorative touch. A grey downspout runs vertically along the left side of the wall.This photo shows a view looking up towards a row of multi-story buildings that appear to be residential, with varying architectural styles and colors, under an overcast sky. In the foreground and mid-ground is a lush, somewhat wild garden space. A small, greenish pond, partially covered with algae or aquatic plants, is visible at the bottom center. Surrounding the pond and filling much of the garden are various types of green and yellowish-green foliage, including tall grasses and shrubs. A wooden fence runs through the middle of the garden, separating different sections. Several trees, some bare-branched and some with golden-yellow autumn leaves, rise above the garden, partially obscuring the buildings behind them.

I finally found a community garden (Viaduc Garden) for my compost. During the last 4 weeks, I stored it in my freezer πŸ˜„.

Just a 15-minute bike ride passing through the Brussels Park.

I'm looking forward to meeting the community for the next event.

This image depicts a wide, open park area, resembling a large square or clearing. The ground is a mix of dirt and short grass, liberally sprinkled with fallen brown and yellow leaves. Trees with mostly bare branches and some patches of pale yellow leaves frame the perimeter of the open space. On the left side, a stone monument or pedestal with ornate carvings stands under one of the trees. In the background, beyond the open area, more trees and hints of buildings are visible under an overcast sky. The overall impression is one of a spacious, quiet park in late autumn or early winter.This image presents a broad, straight pathway in a park during autumn. The path itself is almost entirely covered with a thick carpet of fallen, light brown and orange leaves. Tall, slender trees with mostly bare branches, save for some pale brown and yellow leaves, line both sides of the path, creating a natural arch overhead. In the distance, the path narrows and leads towards what appears to be a structure or gateway. Several people are visible along the path, walking or pushing strollers, suggesting a leisurely atmosphere. The sky above is overcast, with a soft, diffused light filtering through the tree canopy.This photo captures a rustic scene within a wooded area. The foreground is dominated by the trunks of several large trees, some of which are partially covered in green ivy. The ground is thickly blanketed with fallen brown and yellow leaves. In the center of the image, there is a simple, rectangular enclosure made of wire mesh and wooden framing, possibly a small animal coop or run. Behind this enclosure, more trees with bare branches and some with bright yellow leaves extend into the mid-ground. A small, brown and white chicken or similar bird can be seen pecking at the leaves near the bottom center of the frame, close to one of the tree trunks. The sky is largely obscured by the tree canopy but appears overcast.This photo shows an elevated wooden boardwalk or walkway, made of horizontal planks, extending into the distance. To the left, a tall wall is densely covered in dark green ivy, with some patches of graffiti visible at its base. White, cylindrical posts are spaced regularly along the left edge of the boardwalk, acting as a barrier or guide. To the right, a low metal railing with vertical bars separates the walkway from a drop-off, beyond which a view of distant buildings and a cloudy sky can be seen. Some fallen leaves are scattered on the boardwalk's surface.

Good morning Brussels
Brussels Downtown, Belgium

Yesterday, the sunrise from my terrace was a nice gift before my working day.

This image captures a vibrant cityscape at either dawn or dusk, with a sky painted in soft gradients of purple, pink, and orange.

In the left background, a distinctive, tall Gothic-style tower with intricate detailing stands prominently against the colorful sky. The middle ground and foreground are filled with a dense collection of buildings, showcasing a mix of architectural styles. Many roofs are visible, some with warm red tiles and others with grey slate, often featuring characteristic dormer windows.

Further in the distance, modern buildings and structures, possibly including communication towers or antennas, can be seen, adding a contemporary touch to the historic urban landscape. The lighting suggests a tranquil moment, either as the day begins or comes to a close.

Two figures walk hand-in-hand across a zebra crosswalk at golden hour, silhouetted against a bright sun that casts long shadows on the wet street. A building stands on the left, a scooter is parked, and cars line the right side with bare trees. The vibrant sunlight creates strong contrasts and lens flare, illuminating a distant cylindrical building. The scene evokes a warm, atmospheric mood with deep shadows and bright light.
