Jardin des Plantes, Paris

In front of the museum, a modern statue ....


In this museum, many old animals (from the Prehistory to the 19th century). Many disapeared animals. The buildind is very beautiful (outside and inside).


It is a Sophora, which was planted in 1747 by Bernard de Jussieu. Seeds coming from China.





 

I like Vegetables ...

Passing by the Jardin des Plantes in Paris, many flowers on the grass, but in a special place, many vegetables. This place is a garden but also a place for the student.

Horse-gear of children

I was so many times in this park when I was a child. And now, nothing changed. Unconcern.

To do a worldtour ...

... I can use many things. To begin by a scooter.

Walking In Paris

Walking in Paris between Bastille and Gare de Lyon, I met amazing buildings ...

Barcelona (Passing by)

I went many times to Barcelona (Spain). And at each time, I saw the colors everywhere : in the street, the parks, the restaurant, the people ... and the market (here : the market of the Boqueria).

One year ago the Mont Blanc

One year ago, I decided with friends to climb a high summit in the french Alpes. For the first time, I succeeded a 3400 meters summit.

In my father's garden.

My father is soon leaving this garden. I have been in this garden for 25 years. So I took some photos for the future. Only good moments spent.

Three choices, one possibility.

I do not know what to choose: Must I post this letter before phoning or playing a little money to the lotto game?

Variations with the colors (2)

When I do not take photos, I try sometimes to paint. My inspiration may be a landscape or a people. It may also be the result of my imagination.

If the world was in Yellow

When I took this photo, it reminds me a dream I made. A world where everything would be of the same colour. Not in black and white, but in red, green ... and also in YELLOW ...

In this garden ...

It was somewhere in the center of France. This is the gardens of Eyrignac. I arrived in this place by chance. I was moved to see that this was carried out by one impassioned. For 40 years, he has worked to create and improve its garden "à la française". All is made of range of greens. The trees and the shrubs are cut to give geometrical constructions like alive sculptures.

In the Périgord.

Some images of the week that I spent in Périgord (French area of South-west). Here, it is the castle of Beynac. Built in the Middle Ages, to be restored. Located at 150 meters in top of cliff to the Dordogne river.

St Malo (France)

2 kilometres (1.5 miles) of ramparts that surround the walled town, from the Saint-Vincent Gate to the Saint-Thomas Gate.
I sailed 2 days with friends around the bay in september. Very nice.

The dream's woman

... A house full of clothes. These clothes are parisian fashion at St Germain des Prés.

Florence (Again)

I am not bored to contemplate the landscapes of Florence. It is even more beautiful view from far. At a few hundred meters of the center of the city, I discover the countryside very quickly. The light spouts out sky and floods the roofs of the city.

Florence (again)

Some views of the old town.

Four days at Florence

We arrived in the early morning by the train. A little fog and these brown and green colors which invade the eyes. I came several times to Italy and, each time I am filled with wonder by the landscapes. Here, it is the Arno river which crosses the town of Florence. With far away, the green on the hills... Soon, images of the city.

Visitor of the time.

Some brought back photos of Alsace (area of the east of France). It was in November. A soft weather, the clear horizon. A little effort to arrive in top of the mountain and to discover the castle. It was built in the Middle Ages and was restored at the beginning of the 20th century.
