Quand vous avez un tel sourire, vous oubliez tous les sacreifices et les reveils beaucoup trop matinaux :-)
When you get this smile, this sense of hapiness, you forget all about sacrifices and 6:30am wakeup call 
Je suis anti-militariste a la base mais j\\\'ai un interet pour les monuments dedie aux hommes et femmes qui se battent pour notre pays. Il y a toujours une atomosphere un peu particuliere qui m\\\'attire.
I’m anti-military but I have an interest for monument dedicated to the men and women fightying for our coutry. There is always a special atomosphere in these place. This is a detail from the “Monument aux morts” in Nice.
Il y avait quelques opportunites photographiques ces 15 derniers jours a Nice grace au Carnaval. Je ne suis pas grand fan de celui-ci mais bon ... On ne va pas crache devant quelques occasions photos !

We were finally able to get some rest during December. We were happy enough to go to the Seychelles Island. I was even able to pull some interesting shot. Here is the first one of the series
Plus de 3 mois depuis mon dernier post sur 400iso. L\'hiver est rude! Bien occupe. Toujours en mode atterissage dans notre nouvelle vie. La photo se retrouve relegue bien loin sur l\'echelle des priorites mais j\'essaye tant bien que mal de prendre quelque cliche ... Au parc! En voici un d\'un superbe ... Tourniquet !
3 months since my last post on 400iso. Winter is tough! Still on the landing stage with our new life and photography is not one of the top priority. But I try to get one or two interesting one … Here is one at the Park. It’s a … Whatever it’s called …
Pas facile de trouver du temps en ce moment pour mettre de nouvelles photos en ligne. Mais quelle recompense !! Regardez tous ces artistes a la maison! Bientot on va pouvoir monter un spectacle !! Nicolas au piano, Manon a la danse, Leo a la guitare ... Papa au chant et maman fait des tours de magie !!!
It’s tough finding some time posting some pictures nowadays. But look at the reward!! Pretty soon I’ll have a show at my place with my 3 kids!! Piano, dancing, guitar … Maybe I could sing as well and my wife could do some magic tricks!!
Enfin un post sur 400iso !! Ca faisait un bout de temps. Mais j'ai une bonne raison. Nous venons juste de rentrer definitivement en France et nous sommes loin d'etre installe. Par contre dans ma nouvelle boite il y a un club photo !! Chouette ! Theme du mois: Formes et contours. J'ai pris cette photo a Nimes ... Elle me fait pense a notre vie du moment ... On l'on prend un grand virage, beaucoup de changement. J'essaierai de poster le plus possible ... Mais franchement, on a pas beaucoup de temps !!! :-)
Finally we’re back in business at 400iso.com ! It’s been a while since I have posted anything but I had a good reason. We’ve moved
back to France and as you know, it takes time to settle in. In my new company, there is a photo club ! You can imagine my interest for it and I’ve started to participate. Topic of the month was: Shapes and outline. Took this one in Nimes. It reminded me of what’s happening to us … Changing life … taking a curve …
I’ll try to post as much as possible in the futur. But bare with me … We’re far from settled !
Un ami me permet de poster la photo de sa fille .. J'aime beaucoup l'effet applique a ce portrait ... difficile de le rater avec un tel modele ...
One of my good friend allowed me to post this picture of his daughter. I really like the effect on this portrait. Can’t really miss it with such a great model …
Je m'amuse avec Photoshop en ce moment ... Voila un resultat interessant avec une photo de ma fille ... Barbie Princesse ... :-)
I’m having some fun with photoshop lately. I ended up with this result with a picture from my daughter … Barbie Princess … So cheeeessssyyy !

This was taken at one of the 150 temple I’ve visited during my trip to Japan. Japanese are really good for temple. I never got tired of them !! This is my entry for this week PhotoFriday’s challenge: Road
Nous aimons tous les belles choses et on pourrait passer des heures a s'emerveiller devant nos vieux amis ... Voila le plus vieux, pris avec le plus jeune (Canon 350D). Ils sont tous les deux utilises de facon reguliere. Vous avez reconnu un Leica IIIf, mollette rouge (!) et retardateur et son fidele Elmar 50mm f/2.5. Le livre est de Salgado.
Let’s face it: We all like nice craftsmanship and we could spend hours looking at our old friends 
Well, this is the oldest taken with the youngest (Canon 350D). They both see the sun equally. You had recognized the Leica IIIf red-dial and self-timer with a trusted Elmar 50mm f/2.5. The book is one from Salgado …
J'ai recu mon Oktomat la semaine derniere et j'ai grille une peloche ce week-end. Voila la meilleure ... Il va me falloir un peu de temps pour maitriser la bete quand meme :-)
I’ve just received my new Oktomat and ran a roll this week-end to see what kind of crazy stuff I could do with it. Well, I need to work on that as I still don’t know what I’m doing with this thing ! … Here is the best one of the lot.
Je regarde mes photos et je ne peux m'empecher de poster ces 2 la. Mes jumeaux ont maintenant 5 mois ! Le temps passe vite ...

Un chemin a Tokyo ... Il va la ou vous voulez qu'il aille ...
Some path in Tokyo … Leading wherever you want it to go …
La photographie, c'est pas compliquee ... Un joli modele (Ok, je suis pas super objectif sur le coup ...), un accessoire sympa (difficile de se tromper avec un guitare) et surtout: de la lumiere. Une lumiere venant d'une fenetre ferra des miracles.
Photography shouldn’t be complicated. A nice model (Ok, I might not be very subjective here … ), a nice prop (Can’t go wrong with a guitar) and the most important thing: Light. Light coming from a window will definitely do wonder.
Apparement les Japonais sont de grands pecheurs vu le nombre de fontaine de purification qu'il y a !! En voici une parmi une multitude.
By the number of purify fountain in Japan, I’d guess that Japanese are big sinners. There are fountains where you can get purified at every corner !!

Un bassin magique a Kyoto. Oui oui, magique ! J'attends toujours que mon voeux se realise ...
A pond in Kyoto, Japan. Yes, I threw a coin. Still waiting for the wish to come true !
Le pavillon dore a Kyoto ! Je suis en train de scanner mes dernieres photos du Japon !
Haaaa .. a bit of history on 400iso !! Kinkakuji (Golden Pavilion) is a Zen temple formally known as Rokuonji. In 1397 construction started on the Golden Pavilion as part of a new residence for the retired shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu. Kinkakuji was converted into a Zen temple after Yoshimitsu’s death in 1408. The Golden Pavilion functions as shariden, housing sacred relics of the Buddha and is covered in gold leaf. The present building dates from 1955 as the pavilion was burnt by a fanatic monk in 1950.
This picture was taken during my 2005 trip to Japan. I’m scanning my last color prints !

Le IIIf et son Summitar 50mm f/2 etait de sortie ce week-end charge avec de la Neopan 400. Cette optique vous transporte vraiment 30 ans en arriere. Elle a un je ne sais quoi ...
I’ve finally taken the Leica IIIf and its summitar 50mm f/2 out of the closet this week-end and shot a roll of Neopan. The fingerprint of this lens is pretty amazing. It take you back 30 years back in time. There is something about it that I can’t describe. It feel just right …
mmm .. Mais qui cela peut il bien etre ?
mmm … I wonder who that could be …
