Crêpes

Today article will not be about flowers and insects for a change...

Yesterday, I organized a small Crêpes party and snapped a few pictures on the first ones before they got eagerly devoured. I just love Crêpes, they are so nice to look at and have this horribly tempting vanilla smell that can not be resisted!

The mere sight of these pictures makes me terribly want to eat some more :-)

Flight in red

A strange insect caught my eye while I walking around in a small park not far from my place: red and black and with beautiful wings (when opened).

It's for sure a kind of beetle, and I would say a Cardinal beetle after looking at different pictures - what do you think?

Nature versus Human

I wanted to make a photo series about the contrast between nature and human traces (concrete, etc).

So here are a few, I tries to find different kinds of opposition but somehow it turned out they were all quite similar... The fact that I took all of them almost in the same place might be the explanation for that ;-)

BnF reflection

A theme that I have not explored for quite a while: architecture!

Copying my friend's work, some pictures of the BnF (Bibliothèque Nationale de France) located in the 13th arrondissement of Paris.

I really like the symmetry of the window edge lines, converging to the infinite sky up above :-)

Into the light

Have you ever tried to 'catch' the sun within your hands? Or to touch the moon through its reflection in a lake? I just love the idea but I am a bit too lazy to find a place where you could create such a photography, so I end up using bokeh instead of 'real' light...

For now, I'll be satisfied enough with catching the light inside some young leaves, or touching the light with flowers petals :-)
