Ghent Xmas Village

A carousel? Or a portal?

Its the 24th of December of 2024 and everybody is with their families celebrating Christmas, but not all, some of them are walking in the city. Me, as I am not one of them, I’m on the hunt for picture that give off the maximum amount of that Christmas vibe!

After walking around in the cold with an action camera mounted to my chest for a few hours, I managed to grab a few of my favorite pictures! The warmth, the chaos and the care in the air was to the maximum!

Overall, I am more than satisfied with this little street photography run, but some things could always be better. Firstly, being more confident and less shy always improves the situation and I definitely missed a few good shots because of that exact reason. One more neat pick I could think of is the stability in my hands during long exposures – quite shaky. But! The shake made the kids carousel into a portal to another dimension, quite fascinating.
