Eating Taco Bell

In the parking lot at work

They forgot my sauce

 

Let this be a lesson for all that read this, always check your order before you leave the drive thru

It's 6.09AM and it's time for breakfast for local sellers. Most of them already sold all their production and have a good time eating Bun Bo (local soup).

Best outfit of the night!

Just sotpped on the bridge to take a quick shot at the marvelous sky in front of us.

Tahiti was at the center of the party and it was a very frank success.

Big crack up with mommy on the bed tickling his feet.

Leatitia is the typical joyful tahitian woman.

For the pleasure of the ladies, the Boucane Team made a nice Haka Dance Show.

Our move went well. We're settling in to a smaller place a mile or so along the road. Moving a mile gives me a new perspective. I see this as a new beginning and an opportunity to get back to basics. The city is a source of knowledge, and I am using London as my primary source of new observations as well as a trigger for reflection on the knowledge amassed during my working years. That is to say I will be getting out of the house, enjoying myself, and bringing new experiences back to Flickr for reflection, conversation, and possibly some further research.

 

During our move Jonathan Raban’s 1974 book ‘Soft City’ came to the top of the pile and I’ve been dipping into it from time to time. Raban reminds me that the city does not lend itself to straightforward narration or continuous page-by-page reading and that no one person can command the whole of the vast store of knowledge that the city holds. I like this thought. I no longer have to report to clients and committees; now all I want to do is give a personal view. Flickr seems to be a far more open and sociable place to air my opinions. Like a city flickr offers many paths to follow.

 

For Raban the ‘Soft City’ is a city of personal experience and interpretation, it is not the city of hard facts nor indeed the city of hard knocks. I remain aware that for many the personal experience of London is hard, but in retirement I’m opting for soft. Raban’s city is a place of dreams, insight, concepts and possibilities. Raban's city is a city of the literary imagination rather than the policy report or master plan. My flickr city is new territory for me.

 

Let us start with a gentle stroll. A few minutes from our new front door and we are in this idyllic scene.

 

Commercial Shot for the Novotel Hotel.

3 exposures: 1 for the model, 1 for the treadmill and 1 for the city view in the background.

It's been a lot of fun to retouch this pic and try to blend in the different details in the composition.

Would have been even better if somehow we could have managed to shot this during sunset.

Cheers and have a great day.

Just came out of a meeting with the marketing team in the Novotel and realized the cloud were quite apropriate to have a drama shot.

Vietnamese, Japanese, french and many other expats joined the party.

A very common move in traditional tahitian dance. Dancers raise their arms to the sky to greet the supremes.

All the mens had their face painted by Tehan.

Great day at Da Nang Beach with my lil one. The sky was wonderful and the tiny waves were at the rendez vous.

A cute lil girl was eager to learn the tahitan moves and Tiare taught her really well.

Big crowd for the dance courses provided by Laetitia and Tiare.

Since we lived in Tahiti and were used to go to the beach almost every weekend, water become his element of predilection.

This cute lil girl was in the neighborhood and she was curious of the ambiance going at le Boucane.

Like prometheus, I cast you down to the human world for all your wrong doings...

 

Do you ever have those days that something you do suddenly makes you feel pushed out... like you choose to like something to be do something in your life and you find that the consequences see you getting pushed aside - Away from people you like, or even to the ground because its deemed not right or worthy. I spent a lot of my time in the last few feeling that way but it is also weird seeing the same things I experienced happen to other people when standing on the outside of situations. In particular a person i once was close with, Ive seen fall hard as he changed how he was with people we knew. Its hard but also at the same time, once it happens theres no way of changing things back to the way they were once they have been cast out.

 

This shoot i do have to admit was such a fun challenge to do! Not only was it out of comfort zone using the fantastic Ewan for the shoot, Who i had met and found through a website for models and broke my comfort zone of using new people in my shoots but also after about three attempts of editing this i have really pushed my photoshop skills to the test. Im so happy with how it looks! Please let me know how it looks and also what you've done photographically that has pushed you too.

Participants were invited to share personal experiences of inclusion and exclusion. They wrote these experiences of cut outs of there own hands, which were then displayed for the rest of the group to share the experience.

Gym pays off and Kristina really is the living proof. This and also eating super healthy since she cooks everything herself.

The Novotel got a bit bored of the traditional stock photos and asked us to come up with a concept to promote the freshness of the products used for their barbecue. Fish straight from the morning fishing session and vegies from the morning market at 4am.

She just drunk some water from the swimming pool and the resulting face is priceless.

Captured on the evening of March 12, 2025, at 22:45, inside Bob W Kesklinn Hotel, Tallinn, Estonia. The fire alarms suddenly blared throughout the building, prompting an immediate evacuation of all residents and guests.

 

The Tallinn Fire Brigade arrived 15 minutes later, investigating the cause—only to discover it wasn’t a fire, but something just as destructive: a massive water leak. Water had seeped through the structure, affecting rooms from the 9th floor all the way to the ground floor, particularly on the right side of the building. A chaotic yet surreal moment as the hotel guests, dressed for the night, found themselves waiting in the lobby, watching firefighters navigate an emergency that turned out to be one of nature’s quieter yet relentless forces—water.

 

A snapshot of unexpected disruption, swift emergency response, and a night in Tallinn that no guest would forget.

A first in Da Nang, Vietnam.

Tehan showing us the real polynesian HAKA.

Laetitia bringing the tahitan dance tradition in vietnam. Spectacular performance.

Thanks to her tahitian origins she took in charge all the dancing activities of the night.

Kris couldn't resist having her face painted.

I was 17 years old, didn't even have my license yet but I managed to buy this baby with the help of a very good Friend (Thank you Thomas Lorilloux).

After 3 hours of photoshoot Enzo couldn't resist to jump in the swimming pool.

Hole number 8 of the Moorea Green Pearl. Really nice layout. We used to go swim in that pond!

Maybe in 10 years from now when he will be muscular, it could be a nice cover for Baywatch :D

After a woman cut me off, I crashed my ZX10 and the whole bike was badly damamged. I changed all the fairing, front fork for Ohlins, Exhaust (F**K this one was loud), reprogrammed ECU with better map...

Kris having fun with her cousin in the swimming of Victoria Hotel in Hoi An

Tahitian dance is about rythm and grace. Laetitia got it all.

Kristina looking over the horizon at A la carte hotel swimming pool.

The atmosphere was great that night
