Breathing
Curfew, cold days, snow, rain, flooding: all this seems, for a day, a memory. The weekend brought nice weather, but also showed the extreme need of taking off our masks, look at each other and smile. Breathing. Picture: Fuji X-Pro3 – 23mm f/2.0
4.35 m
Paris’ Seine River has flooded and risen, not at the level of 2016 (6.10m), but still at significant level (4.35m last Monday). Reduced perspectives. New lines. The tide came up as the sun went down, And the river was full to its very brim, And a little boat crept up to the town On theContinue reading “4.35 m”
A different Paris
Around Paris 75013 I have spent 3 hours with Thomas from ThomasApp in one of his interesting ‘atelier argentique’ last Sunday. Weather was not the best, but he took me and my 35mm Konica in a different Paris, away from the ‘usual’ places. 3 hours of walking, talking film photography, discovering. From Place d’Italia, downContinue reading “A different Paris”
Stay Focused
1 February. New light restrictions introduced to avoid a new lockdown in France. In practical terms, for most people, this results in closing shopping malls +20.000sq. Another reminder to remain focused on prevention and to not underestimate the health situation, despite of the hope of vaccins. Picture: Fujifilm X-Pro3 – Industar-50 50mm F3.5
Smile, it’s snowing
Paris, 9me and 18me arrondissement The snow has the magic power to bring a smile, surprise, emotions. Last Saturday it was a gift. Just few hours, enough to get out and experience my special places with a white, soft carpet. Smile, it is snowing in Paris. Pictures: Fujifilm X-Pro3 – 35mm f1.4
Élégance
Et quand il fait moins trois, il fait froid L’élégance n’a d’importance que si l’on y pense C’est en passant devant la glace Qu’il s’aperçoit (Francis Cabrel, Sanseverino) Picture: Fujifilm x-Pro3 – 35mm f1.4

2020: a year in Paris in 12 pictures. Around me
What a year! We will remember it: for the health concerns, for the lockdown, for the empty streets, for the home working, for the masks, for the change of habits, behaviours, care. For the sacrifices. But mainly because it forced us to focus on the essential, on what it really matters to us. Paris stillContinue reading “2020: a year in Paris in 12 pictures. Around me”

A different Christmas, but dense of meanings….wishing you That hope will fill our days, our hearts. Buon Natale Picture: Fujifilm X100F
Still closed
Unimaginable: a city like Paris, which makes of café, bar, bistro and restaurants one of its main identities, doesn’t seem to see light of opening. Still closed. Picture: Fujifilm X-Pro3 – Minolta Rokkor 50mm f.1.7
