Yesterday, I had a look at one of my preferred Saint Barth webcam, over Saint Jean Bay.
It was about 08.20 in Saint Barth, and … a rainbow appeared on the left side of the picture. It was then great to observe how the rainbow has evolved. Nice moment :-)
Continuing the Saint Barth 2009 portfolio…
The “wild” side of Saint Barth. Great walks. First time this year!
Again, quite an high traffic on my visuals this month :-)
Second time over 100’000 views per month. And more than 600’000 pictures & video viewed since January…
Wow, thanks for your interest, don’t deserve that!
In a way, this morning, I need to see some Saint Barth pictures ;-)
Have a good Friday!
Romero Britto creates the poster of the 44th Montreux Jazz Festival.
His art celebrates life and stands for vitality and joy. Born in Brazil, Romero Britto lived an extremely modest lifestyle while growing up amongst eight brothers and sisters in Recife. Nowadays he is one of the most renowned Neo Pop artists worldwide. His paintings and sculptures combine elements of Cubism, Pop Art and Graffiti. Britto created the Festival’s poster already in 1999 for its 33rd edition and the logo of the Festival’s archives Montreux Sounds. Painted in strong and fresh colors, the poster for the 44th Montreux Jazz Festival represents a boy with guitar and his dog. Romero Britto, who currently lives in Miami, is an artistic activist for charitable and cultural organizations, he supports as well the Montreux Jazz Fondation 2.

Still not in St Barth. 70 days left to go.
We had some great time this week-end in Strasbourg (wikipedia) with my wife and son. Always a great pleasure to go there, as it is a great city, and also because we have studied there for a while ;-)
We had two great meals:
[…] Numerous gourmet guides have noticed the restaurant, the cuisine being daring, and the mixes being done with “opposites attract” as a motto. A star is born…

Ideally located, decorated with a lot of taste and personality, this gourmet address is on the rise and it will no doubt surprise you thanks to an ideal gourmet menu composed according to the season, with a thousand and one surprises in store for you.

Besides the meals and shopping, I could test a bit more my new Canon EPS 5D MarkII, this time with my “old” wide-angle lens (Canon EF 17-40mm f/4.0). I could really feel the advantage of the “full-frame” for the first-time. Great!
Full gallery here.
I am still not in Saint Barth…
A fantastic SmugMug gallery of wonderful photos of Saint Barthelemy birds.
And another fantastic gallery from Rebecca Field.
Wow, that’s cool :-) I have received today my new camera and lens.
After quite a long comparison phase between the new Canon 7D and the “old” 5D MarkII, I have decided myself for the full-reflex, i.e. the EOS 5D MarkII.
More on this comparison later on but the full-reflex capability was decisive ;-)
As you have to use EF lens (this camera is not compatible with the EF-S series) and I was interested to shoot with a fix 35mm, I have also acquired a new Canon lens (from far the most expensive I have), the 35mm f/1.4L USM.
My first attempts (please be indulgent ;-) are quite exciting.
