Pineda Puta !


Hi again, ok so as an intro , I 'd like to show you the new room I've got, a bit messy but way more clean than the previous one. Still messy i must admit but I didn't feel like sorting out all the mess that I've done, I 'm too lazy.


My PC with that usb/wi fi key shit, as I'm writing this I got disconnected 4 times, let's be brave and continue the entry .
Ok as you might know I've been to Salou (well La Pineda) in Spain for holidays, I came back with some shots but I didn't really do loads of photos. I'll show you my selection :


The "team a poil", we were waiting the so welcoming spanish dudes to accept us for a rent of 2 weeks in a camping in la Pineda. Those fuckers let us wait for the whole morning and asked a loads of money for a fucking rent (we drove all night long to get in there, and we hadn't had any breakfast). So we look a bit discouraged by the beginning, but the team a poil overcomes every problems ;)

The campement lol
Oasis, Redbull and some smoke stuff for chilling out the afternoon
A small stock of alcohol

some sun bathsSome hours to rest a bit
Vince being concentrated at the game

We organized shared apéro with the neigbours , some nice guys from Orleans. In the car, there were a tv, a PS2, some sound stuff, cool :)
Some postcard . The enter of the beach (well one of them)


One afternoon, there was a fire in the industrial area just nearby. At that moment I realized it was not so far away from the fucking camping, the landscapes there was crap. But we had fun


Lucky day for José, he won a free Nestea al limon and the taxi seemed to react when he was walking around lol.

I remember when I took that photo, it was a damn hot afternoon and we stopped to have a cocktail. Best ever blue lagoon, well as you can see on that photo. While coming back from the beach, it's always good to have a Nestea al limon, always .

This pix was taken by José , he delt very well with the camera .
At the damn restaurant, we have waited for hours, to have a cook we could expect in what we call here : cafeteria
Le Ziz!

I found out such beast while coming back from the restaurant lol. nice isn't it?

Dear diary

Sometimes I really tend to think nobody have a look at that page so what's the use, I dunno, I still keep uploading photos I shoot randomly. My holidays in Spain were short but it was cool there, lots of sun, parties etc.
But it was not the point of this blog entry, as I was browsing my recent photos in a bored mood , I've decided to upload some portraits.

Nathan was trying to having a suitable pose that's why he 's got that weird expression. Or maybe he was not ease at ease in front of the camera

Nathalie aka Yolande a future german teacher, this shot was done by chance (I was trying to take back my lighter and I took the photo by surprise, the angle is completely missed but I like how the whole photo turned out.)
Kro being serious
José being sad/serious too .

Le Corbusier

Lately i've been to Firminy to visit the Church there, it was built by Le Corbusier, a famous architect. I've had heard that the church was very particular so I decided to have a drive to it and to have a lil photo session there.
'The' church, it looked very weird to me but a very interesting structure

These fotos were taken in la maison de la culture, a building also designed by le Corbusier
He dealt very well with the light, it adds a lot to the atmosphere of the church, very peaceful thanks to the soft light, magic thanks to the different hole of light and very innovative in the way of designing how the people seat (I mean the people are just above the priest and the chairs are placed in a kinda round)


Very special as I said, I plan to visit other structures like this , just have to find them ;)

"C'est plus la fête de la musique! c'est la fête des ivrognes"

Ok new entry for an event typically french, la fête de la musique ! (don't laugh at my translation i don't have any clue about the translation in english so i would call that : the music party)
La fete de la musique is an event for the 1st day of the summer, we (the french) celebrate music. Generally each cities organize it, and tht evening many local bands play in the street.
It's an important event in France.

ah i was about to forget : my title is a quote i heard from a mother with her lil child while walking in the crowded street, she was saying : look at that , it's not anymore a celebration of music but alcoholic party !

the evening began (for me ) with an appointement at a restaurant in the most famous pedestrian street of saint etienne.we had some burgers, meets,french fries, beer, wine , whisky.

I ain't good at taking foto groups , i don't really like doing it either.bah just to give you an idea of what it is to eat in a crowded street.
Hey look at my cheque (well the cheque is outta focus)
Tib was embarrassed with many glasses , he ended up with 5 just for him.
My neigbour tonton, a bit high and in a very good mood for partying .


here, we were moving to the shop of one of my neigbours (max créations) where there was an electro party organized. a quick posed shot.
The max creation shop, well a part of it.




We met there lots of people from my hometown , here you can see Loul. He wanted me to take the pix a bit further because of his eyes ahaha.
The bar where we bought loads of beers, get 27 , whisky. another style but still with drunk people inside.

i got my 35mm new lens so decided to post some random shots

ahahah each time i wanna test a thing on my camera the first cobaye is my poor sister, here she was holding her arm to stop me from shooting her. bah i got a quite good shot indeed. very spontaneous shit
a sunday in France, some old people who were going for the elections. I suppose they voted for the UMP , most of them did... I might be wrong anyway.
a quick shot afer having voted, i joined her and another mate at the top of a hill, they were smoking and chilling.
sooo here's the top of the hill, full of fields and very restful especially for getting high. a very quiet afternoon, i would have go on shooting if the battery of the damn 350D hadn't let me down.
