This is a very much photographed spot in La Défense, Paris. Yet I tried for something original. Did I succeed, in your opinion ?
Spot emblématique et tellement photographié de la Défense à Paris... Pas facile d'y faire une photo originale... Y suis-je arrivé, à votre avis ?
Chilling on the boat between Elba Island & Piombino
"Chilling" sur la bateau entre l'île d'Elbe et Piombino...
Third and last (for the time being) shot of this magic moment at the top of Brussels...

Such a glorious feeling shooting from 3130m altitude...
Quel sentiment de plénitude que de shooter depuis 3130m d'altitude...
Not much time to shoot, so a little detour in the archive, with the same treatment as my last post…
Pas beaucoup le temps de prendre des photos, donc un petit détour par les archives, avec le même traitement que mon dernier post…
Philippians 4:6–7 (NIV)
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Back to Guadeloupe and my early trip to the "Pointe des Châteaux". Running down from the panoramic viewpoint (since I had to urgently return the rental car) I stumbled upon this view and magical light, which I of course had to snap ;o)
Retour en Guadeloupe et à mon épopée matinale à la Pointe des Châteaux. Redescendant du point de vue en courant (car je devais rendre la voiture de location), je tombe sur cet autre point de vue, et cette lumière toute particulière, que j'ai bien entendu dû photographier ;o)
Second shot from the top of the ITT in Brussels. A little more zoomed in, a longer exposure (60sec), a little later, and even more of a cinematic feel to it in my opinion...
Deuxième cliché depuis le toit de l'ITT à Bruxelles. Cadrage un peu plus serré, exposition un peu plus longue (60 secondes), prise un peu plus tard, et avec un rendu cinématique encore plus prononcé...

Under a heavy sky, a figure looks out over the horizon, caught between the stillness of the moment and the weight of thought.
A scene that feels cinematic frozen in a quiet, introspective frame.
"Davanti al silenzio"
Sotto un cielo carico di nubi, una figura osserva l’orizzonte, sospesa tra la calma del presente e il peso dei pensieri.
Una scena che sembra tratta da un film ferma in un istante di solitudine e bellezza silenziosa.
"Face au silence"
Sous un ciel chargé, une silhouette contemple l’horizon, comme suspendue entre le calme du présent et le poids des pensées.
Une scène qui pourrait appartenir à un film figée dans un instant de solitude et de beauté discrète.
In this quiet moment, nature extends a silent invitation — to step closer, to pause, to listen. Trees speak not with words, but through presence, rustling leaves, and filtered light. This image captures that gentle call into stillness and calm.
Why Do I Photograph?
The Search for Lost Wonder
As a child, the world was boundless.
I could look at the sky for hours,
follow the light, listen to the wind,
and simply be.
Back then, to see was to wonder.
Every moment was open,
full of questions,
and complete.
Then came the system —
rules, grades, expectations.
It taught me many things,
but it also took something away:
the freedom to feel the world,
without purpose, without aim,
simply as it was.
Today I hold a camera in my hands.
And when I press the shutter,
I’m not searching for perfection,
but for that feeling from long ago —
for the moment
when light, silence, and time become one.
When, for an instant, everything feels
as it once did,
before someone explained
how the world works.
And this photograph
is the first step.
It may sound simple,
but it will be hard for me.
I have to let go
of thirty years of control.
But now I know
why I photograph.
