En ce moment, je lis le livre de Steve Sonheim "Creative Photography Lab". Un des exercices consiste à se promener et à prendre 1 photo aux 5 minutes pendant une heure... Quoi de plus simple! Je suis donc partie en balade avec ma sœur Claudine qui tenait le temps. Après un petit café à la "Fournée Bio", nous avons commencé notre périple dans les ruelles de Limoilou. Mais quelque chose d'inattendu est arrivé. Je me sentais tellement frustrée de ne pouvoir prendre plus d'images!!! Je devais me restreindre et attendre, ce qui me faisait retourner dans un passé pas très lointain où j'utilisais encore les petites bobines de film. À tout bout de champs, je demandais à Claudine "Est-ce que les 5 minutes sont écoulées?" J'aurais pris au moins 100 photos de plus! Mais voilà, j'ai dû sélectionner mes images avec soin! Et j'ai réalisé combien le digital nous facilitait la tâche!!! NON! Je ne retournerais pas à la photo argentique! :)
At the moment,I am reading a Steve Sonheim's book called "Creative Photography Lab". One of the exercises consists in walking around to take one picture every 5 minutes for an hour ... What could be simpler! So I went for a walk with my sister Claudine who kept time. After a coffee at the "Fournée Bio", we began our journey through the alleys of Limoilou. But something unexpected happened. I felt so frustrated not to be able to take more pictures! I had to restrain myself and wait, which brought me back to a not so distant past when I was still using small reels of negative film. I was constantly, asking Claudine "Has it been 5 minutes yet?" I would have taken at least 100 more photos! I had to select my pictures carefully and I realized how digital facilitated our task! NO! I would not return to the old ways of photography! :)

Your photos are stunning. You are very talented!!! Cat # 2 is one of my favorites, and not the city.

Love

Dear dear KJ.... I'm happy each time I see a commment by you and know you are still there on the web.... I am sure Anon is still there too, but that she does not want to blog anymore... She was simply tired of all that stuff, I think, and wanted to rest!
