The mirror palace
Place de la Bourse in Bordeaux is worth a stop.Tripadvisor tells you to go there when there’s not too many people.That is of course, if you want to make a pretty picture of the palace mirrored in the special installation that casts a film of water in front if it. It’s a good habit to…

Crossing the Gironde
The ferry queue was … to the end of the village, and backso by the time we boarded, we also had had our cheese boardas French baguettes and French cheese are second to none. I love places where people are up to each other’s armpitsstill insisting to live their own lives alongside others. Respecting the…

Quotidian life

Bacrcelona,…

Less bokeh, more fun
The Leica Q2 Monochrome comes with a fixed f/1.7 summilux 28mm objective. The lens is fast and has a little bit of vingette towards the corners. The fish eye actually implies that I need to be within arms length of my subject for them to fill the screen. I usually warn people I have no…

as well “everything in focus” requires us to be more accurate in our composition choices due to the inability to isolate the unnecessary details with the blurred bokeh. Beautiful series from Barcelona

Scroll to the last line where it refers to Barcelona. And wait. Likely the last image isn’t loading until very long. All images are crops of one shot. To prove the point a lot is going on in it :). It takes a while to load as it’s a very big jpg. Wait until you see one image showing the zoomed out original from which all others above it were cut 😉 it will load, but slowly.

Portes ouvertes
Usually we just take a little detour from Colmar to visit an Alsacian gemin Blienschwiller to restock from the amazing wines by Anne and Marc Wassler.Their son Matthieu experiments on the grass-roots of wine making:unfiltered, unsulphured, uncompromising, niche tastes for niche customers. New concepts make for new favourites: eclipse and origine are amazing wines. This…

Paddington by night
Switching roles implies spending less time in London. I spent some time with Imad, from my team.Amazed by all the details of photography while in all fairness, I still see myselfas an absolute beginner. For now, this is our adieu, but the future whispers promises of reunion. Paddingont, 5th March 2024
