Borth, Ceredigion, Wales, UK - my tripod snapped just before I took this picture so I had to carefully balance the broken leg and hope that my camera did not fall!
A short wander up the road enabled this shot of the Carlisle to Chirk logs to be taken at Appleside, 60085 providing the oomph.
Before Aurélien, I met a red-hair Irlandish guy, with a nice style. He was ok for posing, but in a hurry, so I did not get him. I also asked another guy, tall, with light eyes, who was also ok, but he did not want to sign my publication authorisation because he is actor. He is quite strict with the image rights because the image is his job. He did not say me in what film he played. Yes, it’s always quick meetings, definitely furtive, and it’s hard know all we want to know.
Then I met Aurélien, a nice guy, who is optician. He was going to drink something with friends some meters far away. And enabled me to close my project !
Thank you Aurélien !
And yes ! This is the end ! I will publish another photo with all the explanations about this project, and why there are only few photos. But, just a hint, look at the date of the photo. Thanks for following me, and for all of your comments, because even if there are only few photos, it was quite hard to complete. Thank you again !

This image is probably one of the most personal, and visually meaningful, images I've ever posted.
A perfect storm of stress, depression, illness and a severe lack of sleep over a period of several weeks culminated in putting my head into one of the scariest places it's ever been in, and appropriately enough whilst on a 3 day holiday sabbatical in the mountains of Snowdonia last week. They were 3 days I hope I never have to experience the like of which again. The sense of isolation, of disjointedness from the world around me, of not even being sure who I was anymore was emotionally and mentally excruciating. The nights were the worst, unable to sleep I experienced the full depth of myself while at the same time feeling so terrifyingly distant from everything in existence. Identity and reality fractured, insanity beckoned…
Strangely enough, as much as it scared me, it was finding my depth that was my saviour, that and the love of a woman who reached down into my personal hell, gently pulled me out and helped me see the light again, inner and outer. If she hadn't been there to listen to my ramblings, my fears, and to comfort me in the darkest moments, I dread to think what the consequences for my mental health would have been.
I've thought long and hard about revealing such a personal experience here on flickr, but ultimately I'm willingly to do so if it helps just one person going through something similar to take a risk and reach out and talk to someone they trust implicitly, and maybe you who read this with a sound mind could extend a hand to someone who you know is going through their own personal hell and be the spar they cling onto in their storm tossed ocean, and slowly but surely carry them back to the safety of the shore. Don't worry, you don't have to come up with answers to their issues, it's enough to lend an ear to their fears. I tried to deal it with by myself but badly crashed and burned. I kept quiet because of pride, fear and the belief that no one could help me. They can. Find that person you trust, and talk, talk like there's no tomorrow, don't leave it until you're hanging on by your fingernails like I did.
This is a picture of a weathered wooden board. It was taken at a very flatt angle with a 100mm macro lens at close distance and wide open.

The most difficult photo is now done ! Now I only have to walk in the streets with my printed photo to approach people.
I met Cédric because I liked his style, and his light blue eyes.
Cédric is out of work. He is searching for something in nautism (canoe if I remember well).
I was satisfied by this photo, but I had to do a specific post-treatment on the embebbed frame: as I had focus on the framing, I forgot to look at the reflection on the embebbed frame itself…
It’s something I have to think about for the next photo.
By the way, I did not care about the colours, and I was surprised afterward to see that Sarah and Cédric wear similar color ! The result is quite interesting ! :)
Thank you Cédric !

Massacre Cave Overlook, Canyon de Chelly National Monument
Canyon de Chelly was another favorite spot of mine out of the many places I visited during my Four Corners trip. The sheer depth of the canyon itself harbored much breathtaking landscape. And the rich history of both ancient Puebloans and modern Native Americans was a complex symphony.
This tiny little moth, I assume it’s a moth, the size of my finger nail was resting on our outside wall late yesterday afternoon. Light was terrible to deal with as it had positioned itself in the worst possible position. By the time I had taken my 101 shots ( well, you know what I mean) I got just one as good as I could get. Not perfect by a long shot but a perfect demonstration, for good or bad depending on your objective of Depth of Field.
Northside Brisbane, Queensland.
Toddington Manor is an elaborate building in the Gothic Revival style. The church by G. E. Street contains a fine table tomb with effigies commemorating the Hanbury-Tracy family.

The more you look the more you see, in the shadows and reflections, on this ornamental metal tree, suspended in the curves of a steel spiral.
These two images have been sat on my desktop and looking at me for weeks, waiting to be uploaded.
