In the Big White

When colors are fading

It is the middle of Winter, the temperatures keep dancing below -10°C, the colors are completely faded and the smell of things has disappeared. Everything is slower than usual. We are not hibernating, but we could, sleeping and rocking with the rhythm of Nature. It can take some efforts to go outside, but most of the time it is very rewarding, we feel alive and realize how life go through such conditions. In absence of colors, a black and white film seemed the appropriate choice to go capture the landscapes, the shadows and silhouettes. Oh Winter, big white that catches my skin and my spirit.

Dans le milieu de l’hiver, les températures dansent autour de -10°C, les couleurs se sont éteintes et les odeurs de toutes choses ont disparu. Tout est plus lent que d’habitude. Nous n’hibernons pas mais nous pourrions, dormir, être bercé au rythme de la nature. Cela demande quels efforts de sortir mais c’est généralement gratifiant : se sentir vivant et voir comment la vie passe à travers de telles conditions. En absence de couleur, une pellicule noir et blanc semblait appropriée pour capturer les paysages, les ombres et les silhouettes. Oh hiver, grand blanc qui saisit ma peau et mon esprit.

  • Welcome

    Hello dear visitor, welcome to my photography world. I am a radio frequency engineer who moved from France to experience a new life in Canada. Living far from my friends and family, traveling for fun and for work I created this blog and website to share a bit of my life with them and everyone else interested in photography. I grew up in front of the Atlantic Ocean in the south of the beautiful region of Brittany. As a passionate photographer, I try to catch the best of each moment from the life in the streets to the changing colors of nature. Photography has almost always been part of my life and helps me to understand and remember the beauty of our world. I hope you’ll enjoy your time spent here.
