I went to the Autosalon Brussels this week as a guest (had no time on the press day), after more than 10 years I guess. Due bad timing, examens, ski holidays, etc. it has always been a bad time. But finally I made it this year and it was also my first time experimenting with photography on a car expo. Very difficult conditions, I even forgot my polarisation filters at home…
