Theo through the lens

I always imagined that I would do some nice shots of Theo when time would allow. Well it was just a matter of taking the time. Sunday we setup the environment to do some cool close-up shots that he will certainly love on his wedding day 20 or 30 years down the road.

back to DSLR...

Here we go. long time no blog. but there's been a couple changes recently.
Our house is now finished (for what it means). We've at least completed the work we said we would. so more free time on week-end. Second, I've got a new DSLR camera (EOS 400D) with which I can play a bit more taking pictures.

So here is an example close-up shot of a passion fruit flower...

White London - The Gloom Culture

I'm still amazed from this morning news... a clash of realities...
It snowed 10cm overnight in London. A white and silky blanket covered London. What a cool sight!

I went downstairs, turned the tv on... just in time to be splattered by the adult world reality (bbc news) describing this morning situation as 'near-blizzard conditions shredding the country travel network into pieces' or how London commuters were facing 'another travel chaos bringing the country to a stand still'.

I then went to work, walking down the road to the train station... just in time to be cheered up by the children world reality. All I could hear were screams of joy and laughter from kids discovering the snow and fighting in this new over-night playground!!!

While the US are living in the Scare Culture, UK adulthood has embraced another type... The Gloom Culture!!! sad.

Nevertheless, I let you enjoy this morning beautiful view.
