New York - Hell, Yes !

Click on the picture to access the gallery.

Hell.

Yes !

Two words which summarise the essence of New York. The intensity, chaos and head-spinning pace of this unique island. But where everything is possible. Everything.

And if you can make it in New York. You can make it anywhere.

The gallery can be accessed here.

Enjoy !

Back to the origins.

Back to the origins of photography... 

The word "Photography" comes from the following Greek roots: 

•  φωτός (phōtos), genitive of φῶς (phōs), "light" 
• and γραφή (graphé) "representation by means of lines" or "drawing",
• together meaning "drawing with light".

Drawing with light, painting with light... Like in the selection of pictures in this portfolio.

As usual, comments and feedback more than welcome.

Retour aux origines.

Retour aux origines de la photographie...

Le mot "Photographie" vient du Grec:

• le préfixe « photo- » - φωτoς (photos), qui réfère à la lumière, clarté;
• le suffixe « -graphie » - γραφειν (graphein), qui veut dire peindre, dessiner, écrire
• littéralement : « peindre avec la lumière ».

Peindre avec la lumière... Comme dans la selection de photos de ce portfolio.

London - Eccentric Traditions

Click the picture to access the portfolio

London has the unusual characteristic of being eccentric in a traditional way. Or traditional in an eccentric way. 

With a history of growing very defined and strict rules - while at the same time accepting (not always seamlessly) the questioning of such. 

A walk around Covent Gardens on a sunny summer afternoon was the occasion to try to capture those two faces - living side by side. And together.
