The Piano Grande is a large high plateau surrounded by the Sibillini Mountains on the border of Umbria and le Marche.

This spectacular natural amphitheatre in the surrounding hills is one of Italy’s hidden treasures.

It becomes a truly paradise to outdoor travelers and landscape photographers, especially during the spring and summer.

И в душу проникает мне до дна.

Весна по-итальянски примавера,

И слово вдохновляет, как весна !

To look at this one of Norway's most famous waterfalls at the top cliff point, you have to drive on the old road, making 125 sharp turns.

And sleeves of the waterfall twisting down through the rocks on the background of swirling mists above the gorges of the Mabodalen ridge.

Там, где петляют водопады

* * *

Чтобы взглянуть на этот один из самых знаменитых водопадов Норвегии с верхней точки у обрыва, надо проехать по старой дороге, делающей 125 крутых поворотов.

Да и рукава водопада петляют по крутым скальным склонам на фоне клубящихся туманов над ущельями горного массива Мобедален.

According to legend, many years ago, here lived on high a magnificent mountain fairy-queen, which lured the travelers, and they disappeared forever.

But the amazing panoramas of these places themselves are as charming as fairies ...

Но и сами панорамы этих мест очаровывают не хуже феи ...

She's committed yet relaxed.

She's loves everyone yet no one.

She's sociable yet is a loner.

She's gentle yet tough.

She's passionate yet platonic.

As we came up and out of the Paradox Valley in Western Colorado, the snow fall got heavier and heavier. Not the greatest shot but one I wanted nonetheless.

I feel like I am a ghost

Drifting about in my own memories

Why is it that easy

To wander about in the past

Why is it that each recollection

Has become as painful

As an embedded shard of glass

It now seems routine

That I revisit old haunts

I used to know

Closer than my own heart

I have become a paradox of scars

That l live with each day

It is not only blood

That runs in my veins

But a river of loss

This image is from a series of photographs that I took at Alfriston Church in Sussex, UK, on a cold, windy day in October. I have mentioned before that I felt an unease at this place, and I think the images are a reflection of that. I wondered if anything or anybody could truly be at rest here, as this feeling came from some disturbance older than the church, embedded in the landscape, it seemed to me.

The weather added to my unsettled feeling, the wind swirling around the church, which is positioned on older sacred ground. The landscape seemed to attract as well as repel.

I have chosen to pair this image with Mozart: Requiem in D Minor, K. 626 - I. Introitus. Requiem aeternam. Please click on the link below for an immersive experience.

The paradoxical tree

I went with my friend Raphaël to do a photo session in the different installations at the Arsenal museum in August 2020.

Cultural theorist Stuart Hall’s influential essay « Endoding and Docoding in the Television discourse » is animated as a stream of letters that from time to time assemble to form each sentence of the text. The directions of the text follows the position of the visitor in the room.

En août 2020, je suis allé faire une séance photo avec mon ami Raphaël dans les différentes installations du musée Arsenal.

L’important essai du théoricien culturel Stuart Hall « Encoding and Decoding in the Television Discourse », est animé et représenté par un flot de lettres qui, de temps à autre, se rassemblent pour reconstruire des phrases du texte. Les mouvements du texte suivent la position du participant dans l’espace.

She is a paradox, a puzzle...

She is faithful and yet detached, she is committed and yet relaxed...

She loves everybody and yet no one, she is sociable and yet solitary...

She is gentle and yet tough, she is passionate and yet platonic...

In short, she is predictable in her inpredictability...
