Bricks

I think almost all those pictures are from my London trip earlier this year - those colorful bricks have definitely made a big impression on me back then...

What could be more opposed - aesthetically speaking - than those two objects?

First this...

Street bikes

I love photographing bikes, so here are a few pictures in front of colorful walls!

Dripping colors

I had almost forgotten how beautiful the colors of Autumn are. Forget Spring and its vibrant green colors, I really prefer the gold, orange and red tones that have been brought to most of the trees around my place!

And as I had the opportunity to lay my hands on the wonderful 90 mm macro that my friend owns, I could not help but try to use all these colors like a painter would blend watercolors...

Faithful friend

I felt really touched seeing this little dog displaying so much affection towards an old lady. Couldn't help but try to capture this moment :-)

(bonus photo: another friendly dog)

Enjoying life

Woods bokeh

A stroll in the Bois de Boulogne for a change (hum), with some bokeh experiments...
Yes, it's the very same tree branch under different lights!

Leaf and light

Gone full bokeh

Pyrénées

On a trip to the city of Foix, I discovered there was a wonderful view on the Pyrénées from there... Alas with my 50mm, the grey sky and the inconvenient hour, I couldn't get more beautiful photos than those ones. I'll have to come back one day at sunset or sunrise :-)

Some really simple pictures! I find their atmosphere is so peaceful :-)

Yellow walls

At Toulouse again to see my friend, I had the opportunity on my arrival to visit the city center by myself and take as many pictures in as much time as I wanted to ;-)

I really love this city, with its amazingly colorful walls. No need to explore the streets too far, you will find color at every corner!

A field of colors

Some beautiful flowers in a field, like a hundred spots of bright colors...

Enter the colors

Ocean of color spots

Macro my love

Though I still find very difficult to get a perfect focus with a macro lens, I always love playing with it. I'm taking advantage of the last summer days to play with the flowers and insects...

High concentration

Wrong hiding colors

Am I spotted
