Save the cheerleader, save the world


I finished watching the last episode of Heroes (Season 3). I know, I always said "No series". But my life after work is more than limited (especially in the last days) and therefore...
I recommend the first season, maybe the second but definitely not the third one. But it's logical, to save the world every season must be quite difficult... maybe they should call Jack, who saves the world every season in just 24 Hours... Yes, it's my next series (although I just have the first season).
Take care

Sheraton mon amour


Unsurprisingly, today was a crazy day. A private jet to go with the big boss to Uganda, tough pictures to take and a press release to send directly after. But honestly, it was great and I learned a lot! Now, after a beer and a nice meal (Yahooooo!), I'm resting alone in a double bed room, clean and silent. I would love to have such a day more often.

I love my job

- Hi, have you received a call from X ?
- No
- You're going today or tomorrow morning to Uganda to follow Mister Y's visit.
- ... OK.
- Do you have your passport with you?
- Yes
- Ok. I give you more details later. Be ready
- Ok, no problem.



My plan for tonight and tomorrow was my laundry (knowing the washing machine is broken, it takes a long time). Il n'y a que les cons qui ne changent pas d'avis.

Projects

I finally got some new equipment (including a new huge display) and we are starting new projects. It sounds very exciting, challenging and it will certainly be a great experience. It is not always easy to convince people to be photographed and to take them in a natural pose but I'm definitely learning a lot.



Let's now hope that the situation will remain stable and allow me to realize all those projects and ideas.

P.S: I love my Mac !

Portraits

A few years ago, a friend of mine told me "What people takes a picture of is a good representation of what they are interested in". At that time, I took mostly pictures of landscape and sunshine. Thinks changed a little bit since...

Happy New Year !

I'm ending 2008 in Barcelona eating tapas and drinking some Rioja and cerveza. 2008 has been a amazing year and full of changes. You got a role in all that. Therefore, I sincerly want to thank you and wish you a great year 2009, a lot of success, love and good health.




But while we are celebrating, UN workers got killed in Darfour and the darfurian population continues to suffer and to live under difficult situations. May 2009 brings more peace and stabilitly in Darfur than 2008.

Merry Christmas

I'm back in Switzerland for a few days. -5°C, snow, plenty of food, bars with beers, ... it's a big change. Anyway, although I'm enjoying my stay here, I'm also looking forward to returning to El-Fasher.
I wish you a merry christmas!

P.S: Dear Friend, if you know a way to buy a Canon 5D MKII with a 24-105 4L before 10th of January, let me know...
