An obsession in my mind

Along the past few years, an obsession has grown in my mind. Anywhere I go, anyplace I see, I always first imagine how nice could be a Nude women photograph there. And like with all obsessions, I feel mad.

Rokkasho, Japan - 2009.

Old time - 6x6 Hasselblad

Young, proud and young - I was.

Carcans, France - 2003.

Nothing here

Just a photograph, the rest is in my head.

Kyla Cole, Montalivet, France - 2010.

No power generator available

So I used the car head lights...

I hate those Jap's Toys

I never thought I will show a gun in one of my photograph.
But when this idea came in my mind, I remember that creating means doing things you never expect.
And really those toys are so awful!

Rokkasho, Japan - 2009.

Stubborn

Stubborn - Just what I thought taking this pic.

Of course, no link with the model's personality...

Andernos, France - 2009.

Ropes@Studio

We simply started to speak about Shibari and then, without any preparation, start to play with some ropes.
No Master around for advice... just a sweet and patient model...

Passion

I do surf but I will stay here to take pics... Devotion - Passion.

Rokkasho, Japan - 2010 (February!).

Surge of Anger

A good way to recover from a surge of anger is to shoot some pics. But only high contrast!
Yesterday, I just apply this recipe.

 

Rokkasho, Japan - 2010.

Nothing has changed

My mind just blows up sometime,  like an unexpected ray of light hitting the film.
A mental disorder.
I hate it but I have to admit that the Photograph is better with it.
I see clear then.
Life is made of unexpected.
I will remain the same,
Nothing has changed.

unexpected, Paris, France - 2006.

Les Saintes

Tokyo -> Point à Pitre.
11h of Jet lag.
Wake up at the middle of the night and see the raising sun over "Les Saintes".

Vieux Fort, Guadeloupe - 2009.

"Flash lights" training

One thing I appreciate in my studio is to slow down and play with the flash heads without "making photographs" - just practice.
Here is an example of this play... It was after making a wanted pic (cf. previous post) and we just relax and test some.

So, THIS IMAGE IS ONLY A TEST (for later)!

Tomari, Japan - 2009.

Snow and so many things to do

Snow storm here.

I got the Preface for my coming book - so great - of course it is always a pleasure to read positive things about yourself!

Translations are slow - the French section took me for ever to write, too much ideas, too dense but hey! I am thinking a little before (and after) trigging the shutter.

I am going to warm up on the shower.
