More London in B&W! Did I mention I love London ? đ Among other wonders, the Greenchain (a fabulous 50 mile walk through parklands and nature reserves) and Thames footpath (a trail/cycle route from far east right into the Southbank and London center) take you to amazing photographic sights such as the Thames barrier.

Ami touriste, (1) Londres est la plus belle ville du monde (2) Camden est un paradis pour les photographes (3) Le temps britannique et l’architecture encouragent le noir et blanc đ Cyberdog est un magasin visuellement incroyable. Les employĂ©s sont malheureusement aussi dĂ©plaisants que paranos (pour la petite histoire, Ă l’occasion du London Street Photography […]

A look at Thomas Holtkötter’s incredible Caixa 1 staircase picture a couple of weeks ago set one of my goals for a UK vacation: try to approach this amazing simplicity and composition mastery on staircases myself. This one, shot a the Greenwich Astronomy Center pleases me. Less geometrical but almost as abstract and rich in […]

La poubelle prĂ©sentait dĂ©jĂ beaucoup d’intĂ©rĂȘt par elle mĂȘme, mais quand un bonhomme en haut de forme s’est […]

So. I’m in the underground in London and two ladies hop in, dressed in bright yellow. In front of me are other colourful shapes, a blue bag, the green railings, the flashing lights through the windows and on the ceiling. Setting my lens at F/22 gives me a 4 second exposure and this is the […]

Night frost on a wooden terrace produced these shapes that remind me of flowers and old Chinese paintings. They also bring back memories of a Cy Twobly exhbition held in Avignon in 2007 (“Blooming”) in which many paintings of Peonies elicited very mixed reactions from fellow visitors. Cy Twombly, by the way, is back in […]

An oblique view of the Giudecca water front taken from the vaporetto on our way to visiting the 3 palladian churches of the area. The overcast day made the ochre colours stronger. A long lens was used to compress the perspective and highlight verticals, inspired by Viera da Silva paintings. Slightly under-exposed to give the […]
