München (Munich) 🇩🇪

Munich is the capital and most populous city of the Free State of Bavaria. It is the third-largest city in Germany, after Berlin and Hamburg, and thus the largest which does not constitute its own state, as well as the 11th-largest city in the European Union. The city's metropolitan region is home to about six million people.

The story

Yes, we’re back! Munich again – this time for a Vive La Fête concert on Saturday. I combined it with a few days of street photography, and this is day one!

Another sunny day, this time in a Halloween-themed Pairi Daiza: a beautiful zoo and botanical garden where you can literally pet pelicans, and animals have plenty of space to roam among visitors – when it’s safe to do so 😉

Leuven 🇧🇪

Leuven is the capital and largest city of the province of Flemish Brabant in the Flemish Region of Belgium. It is located about 25 kilometers (16 miles) east of Brussels. The municipality itself comprises the historic city and the former neighbouring municipalities of Heverlee, Kessel-Lo, a part of Korbeek-Lo, Wilsele and Wijgmaal. It is the eighth largest city in Belgium.

The story

Following Wuppertal’s first attempt, this is the second one in Leuven using the Gold Streak filter. This time, I aimed for a vintage, grainy look with the good ol’ Flek and a black-and-white film simulation recipe. Conclusion: this filter is not for me…
