It was a clear sky week-end, just after temperature started to drop. Mid-mountain had just received its first snow, earlier than usual, and the low morning light was bringing out fall foliage colors from the monochrome background. After a few weeks of a comfortable and connected kind of hibernation, it seems I’m not the only […]
Irish clouds
One of the most recurring sentences I keep hearing from people who manifest a basic interest for photography relate to weather: “Not a good time for photo, there is no sun” or “It’s a sunny day, let’s take some photos”. Sure, when sky is flat, with a light gray and no directional light, any landscape […]
Summer dusk on Charles’ river
Recently I did not had/took a lot of opportunities to practice photography as I used to do when I was abroad…It seems quite usual to be more lazy when back home, the typical “I-have-time, I-can-take-that-picture-tomorrow” syndrome..

Well, until that visit to a botanic garden in Italia…where I was the amazed spectator of a show I never saw before (we […]

But sometimes color is such an important part of the subject that removing it helps to create a complete abstraction of shapes and patterns. While reviewing a set of flower images taken when visiting the Villa […]
Filter: Yellow + Graphical
It’s a real work (pain ?) to add keywords to images, and being lazy by essence, it took me a while to make it part of my import process. Initially, I added general information as keywords (location, people names, type of event, etc…). However, as my photo library was growing, I realized I was often […]
Peaceful
It was one of these foggy days where everything seems to fade to white. Being in Acadia National Park only for a few days, we left our small cabin for an early walk around Jordan Pond. Apart a couple of humans and some deers, we were alone in the world. Among various images captured that […]
