On top of my favourite bloggers is the great photographer Jithin. A few weeks ago, he launched Mundane Monday, an inspiring photo challenge encouraging us to find beauty in everyday life around us. Here is my take for this week: a tiny gasoline station in Bantayan- a beautiful little island in the Philippines. Motorbikes here are on Grenadine ! Continue reading Mundane Monday Challenge : Motorbikes’ Open Bar
The challenge is to incorporate glass in today’s image: a window, a mirror, a wine glass, sunglasses, or something else. It doesn’t matter what form the glass takes. How about the must have accessory in the must visit capital? Summer calling! What do your favorite shades look like? dark and classy or the shiniest the best ?.. Continue reading Photo101: glass, squared (and set for the terrace!)
This week photo challenge is to illustrate “Muse”, the subject(s) that keep me coming back… My muses are the colors of life, its warm smiles, the love signs I read along the way, like this smile from heaven … I feel inspired to feel we are (too slowly but hopefully surely) setting our society free of persecution and oppression of others. Like this week end, when … Continue reading Muses, the goddesses of my inspiration
Another interesting challenge today. I never take pict in B&W, I love the colors far too much. But I did do the exercise, turned my colors into B&W. My initial feeling is still the same: BW is cold to me. What do you think? Continue reading Photo101: Architecture and Monochrome are taking you to Paris
To make sure you all have a sweet week … help yourself! You can also pick some from this post on the French Bonbons. My favorite are the ones on the top right, with honey. Not too sweet, just perfect for a daily use. Under exceptional circumstances, I can’t resist the call of the Haribo “Fraises Tagada” – strawberry flavored gums.. (Exceptional meaning I am in Europe … Continue reading Roy G. BIV loves candies !
Said Andrew when I complimented him about the stunning colors of his blog. Beauty is everywhere, but it takes a real gifted artist to really see it and moreover to share it. When you find one, you want to introduce him to all your friends, to spread the love. Ladies and Gentlemen, meet with Andrew Seal. Visit the Changing Palette (click on the pic), but also … Continue reading “Where there’s color, there is life”
One can speak poetry just by arranging colors well Vincent Van Gogh (probably just looking through his window) Continue reading Life is about using the whole box of crayons
Did you know that the blues of the colors spectrum, associated with water, are called “Cold Colors”? Cruising the Pacific Ocean this morning, a bit of “cold” was all we really needed. May is the hottest month of the year in the Philippines, and the only thing that can evoke cold at 10AM is the famous “Halo Halo” (mix-mix), the traditional Filipino treat : mix … Continue reading Feel the cold ?
It is all here. And the bigger the bag, the bigger the mess, and the Iphone is missing! I make regular attempts at organizing, eliminating, rationalizing. But they never last. I can’t leave the house without a note book, a couple of pens, a book and a lip balm. My colorful wallet, bought in a little NGO in Phnom Penh. My camera as well, as I can’t … Continue reading Tidy bag, tidy mind!
Today’s theme : Study architectural forms, and also train your eye to look for shots that will translate well in black and white. I was deployed in Harper – Liberia in 2007, a few years after the war. Today’s exercise is another evidence that a place can mean sadness or hope, given the color of the glasses you are choosing to wear… Continue reading Photo101: Mason Temples in Harper
