London Nights

London at my favourite time of day; all dusky and shimmery.

Midnight in Paris

Who has seen the new Woody Allen movie? I did a few weeks ago and found it so sweet and charming. It's a beautiful and loving portait of Paris that will make you cherish it all the more. If you've seen it, who were your favorite characters? I thought that Adrian Brody pulled off Dali brilliantly and a confounded Luis Bunuel was hysterical (in an understated way).

The most beautiful city that could ever be

"The most beautiful city that could ever be". Well, Napoleon Bonaparte had that right.

Old Montreal Magic

I love how Old Montreal gets dressed up over the holiday season.

Brilliant trees

"And there you stand
Making my life possible
Raise my hands up to heaven
But only you could know

My whole world stands in front of me
By the look in your eyes
By the look in your eyes
My whole life stretches in front of me
Reaching up like a flower
Leading my life back to the soil"

~David Sylvian - Brilliant Trees

Weather forecast for Paris: blurry with intermittent sweet spots

One of my favourite lenses these days is the Lensbaby. It creates the most wonderful blur, and gives you a great deal of control over where the sweet spot is (the part that's in focus). Not only that, but it is one of the strangest looking lenses out there, and I always get a few perplexed glances whenever I have it on my camera. Plus, it's fun to use. You get to twist it, press buttons, and turn knobs. It takes a lot of work to get blurry photographs people.

Paris was the perfect place to play with my baby. To be continued. J'en suis certaine.
