Ben: Ilse made together with Tine, Ria, and Birgit a fusion between ikebana and western style floral art for the 450 th anniversary of the city hall of Antwerp.
Yesterday I went to the city hall to make pictures of their creations. I was impressed by the city hall, the decorations, and the building itself, and felt honoured to be able to take pictures in this environment.
Ilse and myself got married in this city hall more than 25 years ago, and it was something special to use my photography talents for a piece of art Ilse created with her team.
I took lots of pictures but I was not happy. As is often the case the light put on the arrangements is very nice for visitors, but it is a nightmare for photographers. At the end I decided to use my own speedlites to overpower existing light. This is the result. We love to hear your comments.
