Picture of the day !<br />
<br />
I'm still working on the postprocessing of my pictures taken in South West of France. I needed to go outside and came to my favorite local spot for birds in the very damp and warm late afternoon. So, hereunder, the shot of the day:<br />
<br />

The light was rather low after 7 PM . Only three shots of the burst were sharp. Of course, you can have a look at the two others.<br />

Today, the sky is overcast. This is the right weather for flower photography, because there is no shadow. So I went to the botanic garden of Bagatelle in Paris. <br />
This picture could be my best shot of the day.<br />

Summer is coming on Northern France eventually ! This is time for me to enjoy the long day time and the nice evening nights. Some days ago, when it was still cold and rainy, I spent some time watching videos about photography and I saw<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58G-ttOw6PM" target="_blank"> this one</a>, more than interesting, about bird photography.<br />
I decided to apply the rules given by this professional photographer. Do you know what ? It works !<br />

Some examples :<br />

I decided to try the new panorama merging feature of the last Lightroom release. During my trip in Provence, I took eight or nine shots of the mountain nicely lit by the evening sun. My camera was handheld and I tried to rotate it properly to avoid parallax issues, even if at that distance from the object the risk is rather low. I used manuel settings to keep the same exposure and was confident in the automatic white balance to be consistent during the shots. Then I just used the very simple feature of Lightroom and postprocessed the entire image as usual. The original image size is larger than 75 MP ! Of course, here you get only a small JPEG export (1200 px wide).<br />

A friend of mine lent me a ND 1000 filter for my vacation in California. What this filter does is very simple: it reduces the light coming through the lens by a factor of 1000. It means, in daytime even with a bright sun, you can have an exposure of several seconds. Then, the sea and the sky are altered significantly and it is possible to convey unique ambiances. Of course, this trick has been known for a long time. I tried to play with it and you can see some examples below. The pictures were shot from North to South, from Fort Bragg to Point Reyes. The filter has a side effect as a kind of color cast, so it is important to shoot in raw format. I also tried black and white processing to enhance the contrast and the texture.<br />

Even if I was more in the mood for wildlife and nature photography, I could not stay in the Bay Area without taking some pictures in San Francisco.<br />
Architecture has always been difficult for me. For the first picture, I missed the ideal blue hour, so I decided to take some advantage of the clear sky and the full and bright moon to make something spectacular maybe somehow exaggerated. The next three pictures are taken in late afternoon. Is it really called the sentinel building ?<br />

Do you really want to swim there ? There were some courageous people on kayaks ... According to the biologist on board, some big sharks live in this area too. They are just invisible from the surface but the scars on the seals make no doubt. However, this place is an amazing place to see a wonderful wildlife. It reminds me Yellowstone.<br />

Some pictures taken around Versailles. I played a little bit with my 300 mm without the 1.4 converter, I use most of time. The sharpness can be really good.<br />

Yesterday, a colleague organized a tour in Paris to take some pictures, following Brassaï's spirit. He defined an interesting path around l'île de la Cité. It's always difficult for me to think in black and white. But I tried to convey the pleasant ambience of yesterday evening. It was a rather warm day for the end of winter: a weather more often encountered in May here. A lot of people were outside. <br />

Yesterday, I was at the exhibition of Sebastiao Salgado in Paris. Too many people queueing up in front of the entrance of "La Maison Européenne de la Photographie". The rain helped a little bit to discourage some. So I waited almost 45 minutes to get in. But it was worth the wait ! I was so impressed by some nature and landscape pictures : the black and white choice emphasized the drama and the textures of the scenes. Moreover the loss of the colour reduces sometimes the understanding of the viewer at the first glance. Then it makes the viewer dive deeper in the image.<br />
<br />
Today, another rainy day in Paris area. Overcast and grey sky, a rather dark day for the end of September. So I decided to post-process once more some photographs taken 3 years ago in Yellowstone National Park. I like the colour views of the canyon. But the prints were not really convincing, lacking some relief. Let see if they could be more interesting in black and white. <br />

Sometimes, it's not necessary to travel far away to see some nice wildlife scenes. These 2 photographs were taken near Versailles.</div>

Scotland is an interesting place for the photographer: beautiful landscapes and amazing light are easy to find. Friendly people and good seafood are also on the list of the ingredients to make a good recipe for a very good photographic trip. I think, I will come back.<br />

In summer, the park is crowded, the mosquitos are aggressive, the nights in the backcountry are very cold because of the elevation, but it's still really beautiful. The beginning of the summer is a better time to see the park compared to september, when I came there for the first time. I hope, I will be there once mid-May , to see the waterfalls at their maximum flow and some snow on the top of the mountains.<br />

This is a very interesting place. The lake is famous for the tufa towers. A good spot for photography, especially at dawn and in the earliest hours of daytime. The birds are numerous too. But I was more focused on landscape.<br />
A first overlook on the lake from the Sierra Nevada.<br />

I had the opportunity to spend two weeks in the sunny but chilly Northern California. Below I put some pictures of famous places in San Francisco. You will likely recognize them. The last picture shows maybe a less known feature of the city : the murals. This one is located on Balmy alley.<br />
