Watten: exhibiton of photographs
I lived for a period of six months in Flanders Maritime, a small town called Watten. I was waiting for my dog, Loba, a rescue from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, to fulfill the importation requirements to enter Britain. I took photographs of the people and places and put on an exhibtion in the tourist office.
These are some of the images.
