BBQ + Daido Moriyama

While sipping some Valpolicella, I was going to review the recent photos taken in Venice. Instead, I was browsing photos of a mid-day barbecue taken in Singapore last October.

      Can’t wait for the days to get much warmer in Brussels, so that I can have a mini BBQ at my tiny terrace!

    I like the look. Then again, I’m a bit of a sucker for that film look, so it was an easy sell to me. Love the beer and baby at the BBQ 🙂

      Thanks Bronwyn! It’s been quite fun fiddling with digital photos to get the film effect 🙂

      I wonder what makes children put their finger to their cheek (I have another photo of another kid doing so). Must be TV!

    My thoughts on the baby photo was: “Got milk”. I don’t think it was milk though :D…
