Continuez plutôt un peu plus loin, vous trouverez le restaurant L'Aléchou. Vous pouvez y manger à l'intérieur ou sur l'une des terrasses, c'est excellent et les prix sont plus que raisonnables... et c'est ouvert pratiquement toute la journée.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Le décor est spectaculaire, l'endroit lui-même vaut le détour.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Tourtour: The "L'Aléchou" Restaurant&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the previous post, I mentioned that you should not stop in the street in the middle of the town where you can find most of the restaurants. The prices are high, the food is rather ordinary... and there are way too many people. Go on further and you will find the "L'Aléchou" restaurant, where you can can excellent food at very reasonable prices, at almost anytime during the day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You can eat inside or outside, surrounded by a spectacular scenery. It's well worth taking the time to walk there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Tourtour : le restaurant L'Aléchou / Tourtour: The "L'Aléchou" Restaurant&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/2911.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/2911pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/3045.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/3045pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-4565827788416214751?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/4565827788416214751/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=4565827788416214751' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/4565827788416214751'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/4565827788416214751'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2012/01/tourtour-le-restaurant-lalechou.html' title='Tourtour : le restaurant L&apos;Aléchou / Tourtour: The &quot;L&apos;Aléchou&quot; Restaurant'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-3668177609790711309</id><published>2012-01-23T09:36:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-23T09:36:56.120-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Tourtour !</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Tourtour !&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tourtour, un autre extraordinaire village de France... à visiter absolument.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Soyez prudents toutefois. Le village est à moins d'une heure de la Méditerrannée et, sans aucune insulte, les règles de la circulation ne sont pas tout à fait les mêmes que dans le nord, c'est le moins qu'on puisse dire ! Ne consultez pas votre rétroviseur sur les routes secondaires, c'est inutile : il y a quelqu'un derrière qui essaie de vous rouler dessus, même si vous roulez à une vitesse démentielle. Juré, je n'exagère pas. Un matin, excédé, j'ai semé le type derrière (je peux rouler en fou, je ne suis pas Québécois pour rien !) en enchaînant les virages les uns après les autres. Le type m'a rejoint une dizaine de minutes plus tard à un feu de circulation et en a profité pour m'insulter copieusement. Enragé qu'il était le monsieur d'avoir été semé par un étrange barbu aux cheveux blancs... M'enfin. Mon conseil dans la région méditerranéenne : soyez triplement prudents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;N'empêche, Tourtour est magnifique. En juin surtout, quand les touristes ne sont pas une plaie... :-) Laissez votre bagnole à l'entrée du village, ou encore près de l'église Saint-Denis, et parcourez la ville à pied. Ce n'est absolument pas un endroit pour les voitures. Vous avez un VUS ? Vendez-le...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Évitez la rue des restaurants, c'est un attrape-touristes. Continuez plutôt dans le village, vous serez récompensés. Rues étroites, ruelles en escalier, passages en arche...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Tourtour!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tourtour, another extraordinary village of France... an absolute must.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Be very careful at the wheel in this region though. This village is less than 100 km from the Mediterranean Sea and, without any insult, driving rules are not the same than, say, in northern France! Forget about your mirrors, don't look at them, they're useless on secondary roads: there is always some driver trying to pass over your car or right through it, even if you drive very fast. It's a done thing. One morning I simply had enough and I decided to lose the guy behind me (I can drive like a madman, I am not a Québécois for nothing after all!) and so I did on a very curvy small road. The guy finally caught up with us ten minutes later on a red light and began insulting me heartily, both arms in the air and all that! Mister was insulted because a strange white-bearded man had lost him... Well, my advice is not to do what I did and drive very, very carefully in southern France.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This being said, Tourtour is a beautiful village, specially in June when tourists are still scarce... :-) Leave your car in a parking at the village entrance, or maybe near the Saint-Denis church, and visit on foot. It's not a place for cars. If you have a big SUV, sell it...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Avoid the central street with all the restaurants, it's a tourist trap. Go on further in the village instead, it's where you will find your reward: narrow streets, lanes with stairs, arched passages...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Tourtour : à l'entrée du village / Tourtour: Entering The Village&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/2867.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/2867pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Ue rue de Tourtour / Typical Street In Tourtour&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/3043.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/3043pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Tourtour : porte donnant sur la rue / Tourtour: Door Opening Onto The Street&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/2912.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/2912pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-3668177609790711309?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/3668177609790711309/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=3668177609790711309' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/3668177609790711309'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/3668177609790711309'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2012/01/tourtour.html' title='Tourtour !'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-322820878151416769</id><published>2012-01-19T12:17:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-19T12:17:57.586-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Albi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='panorama'/><title type='text'>Albi, un aperçu panoramique / Albi, A Panoramic Overview</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Albi, un aperçu panoramique&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Voici une vision panoramique de la partie sud de la ville d'Albi.

At the end of the day however, the sun suddenly came out and we saw a totally different Albi, magical in the sunlight, with its enormous cathedral-fortress soaring over it. This is one of the rare cathedrals built entirely with bricks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A real stroke of luck indeed, very moving. But then a good photograph is often the result of a stroke of luck, as long as one has the patience to wait for the best moment. And of course, only a slow post-processing will yield the best results.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Albi (partie sud) et la cathédrale Sainte-Cécile / Albi (Southern Part) With The Sainte-Cécile Cathedral&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/2017.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/2017pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Albi (partie nord) avec l'église Sainte-Madeleine / Albi (Northern Part) With Sainte-Madeleine Church&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/1649.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/1649pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-7324348119851680128?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/7324348119851680128/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=7324348119851680128' title='22 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/7324348119851680128'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/7324348119851680128'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2012/01/albi-dans-le-soleil-du-soir-albi-in.html' title='Albi dans le soleil du soir / Albi In The Evening Sun'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>22</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-8919170431363889935</id><published>2012-01-15T09:13:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-15T09:13:41.420-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tarn'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Ambialet'/><title type='text'>Ambialet</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Ambialet&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ambialet est un magnifique village situé dans une boucle du Tarn.

J'ai donc remplacé le ciel par un autre moins uniforme, et vous pouvez voir le résultat ci-dessous.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;À vous de juger laquelle des deux versions vous préférez. :-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;For ELFI : The Château De Bruniquel Under A New Sky&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When I published a few days ago a photo of the Château de Bruniquel, ELFI implied in a comment that a deep blue sky was perhaps not ideal. This is at least what I understood, and I tend to agree.

Oui. Parmi les nombreuses festivités et cadeaux, la douce Hélène m'a remis les clefs d'un cadeau sur quatre roues. Mamma mia. Non ne me dites pas, je ne suis pas certain de vouloir savoir... :-) Laissez-moi vous donner quelques indications :&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Type: berline sport de luxe&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Chevaux-vapeur: beaucoup trop&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Accélération : démente&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Vitesse maximale : beaucoup trop rapide, ou la meilleure façon de passer d'une contredanse à la suivante&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Accélération latérale : étonnante&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Autoroutes : confort et silence d'une berline de luxe munie d'un véritable système de son&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Routes sinueuses : Ne soyez pas inquiet, la bagnole ne l'est pas, elle&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Neige et glace : vous énervez pas, c'est une bagnole adaptée aux hivers québécois ! Soyez pas inquiet, la voiture demeurera sur la route à moins que vous n'ayez trouvé votre permis de conduire dans une boîte de Kellogg.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Pneus : quatre pneus à neige Toyo montés sur roues mag d'hiver plus quatre pneus d'été Bridgestone montés sur des roues mag d'été.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Prix : pas de mes affaires.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Une note : je déteste les chauffeurs qui roulent en fous sur des routes encombrées, ceux qui tentent d'entrer dans votre coffre arrière, ceux qui changent d'allée comme s'ils possédaient la route.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Joyeux Noël à tous, mes amis !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;It Was My Birthday The Day Before Yesterday...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yep. Among numerous festivities and gifts, I received from Da Wife, The Official Wife, a gift on four wheels. Mamma mia. No, don't tell me, I'm not sure I want to know... :-) Let me give you a few hints on this:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Type: Luxury sport sedan&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Horsepowers: way too many&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Acceleration: Demented&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Top speed: way too fast, or the best way to go from one ticket to the next&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Lateral acceleration: awesome&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Highways: full comfort and silence of a luxury sedan with a true audio system&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Winding roads: don't be afraid, the car ain't...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Snow and ice: Hey, this is a car made for Québec winters! Don't be nervous, the car will stay on the road unless you found your driving licence in a Kellogg box.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Tires: 4 Toyo snow tires mounted on winter mag wheels plus 4 Bridgestone summer tire mounted on summer mag wheels.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Price: None of my business.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Reckless drivers beware: I hate those who drive recklessly in busy traffic, those who try to get into the car's trunk in front of them, that change lanes as if they owned the road.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Merry Christmas to all of you, friends!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Le cadeau / The Gift&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/acura.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/acurapt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-4875105057790139458?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/4875105057790139458/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=4875105057790139458' title='20 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/4875105057790139458'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/4875105057790139458'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/12/cetait-ma-fete-avant-hier-it-was-my.html' title='C&apos;était ma fête avant-hier... / It Was My Birthday The Day Before Yesterday...'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>20</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-9093027631825634406</id><published>2011-12-20T08:29:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-20T08:29:14.753-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Bruniquel'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Château'/><title type='text'>Château de Bruniquel</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Le château de Bruniquel&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Le château de Bruniquel, dans le Tarn-et-Garonne, a quelque chose d'inquiétant et d'extraordinaire. C'est à se demander comment on a pu le construire à in tel endroit, et surtout comment il a pu résister ! Il y a deux châteaux en fait, le « jeune » et le « vieux ». Il est impossible de les distinguer sous cet angle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;On peut trouver de nombreuses photos de ce château sur Internet. Mais... je me demande comment il se fait que personne, ou pratiquement personne, ne le présente sous cet angle, un angle qui en révèle véritablement toute la majesté.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;The Château De Bruniquel&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Château De Bruniquel, in the Tarn-et-Garonne department, has both a disquieting and extraordinary look. One can wonder how it could be built in such a place, and how it could withstand the test of time. There are two castles in fact: the "young" castle and the "old" castle. It's impossible to distinguish one from the other from such an angle however.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One can find numerous photos of this castle over the Internet. I wonder though how com nobody, or almost nobody, shows the castle from such an angle. Here you can truly admire its majesty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Château de Bruniquel&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/1574.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/1574pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-9093027631825634406?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/9093027631825634406/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=9093027631825634406' title='31 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/9093027631825634406'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/9093027631825634406'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/12/chateau-de-bruniquel.html' title='Château de Bruniquel'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>31</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-4789965677390214671</id><published>2011-12-19T21:33:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-19T21:33:50.449-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='church'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Curemonte'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Saint-Barthélémy'/><title type='text'>Curemonte : l'église Saint-Barthélémy / Curemonte: Saint-Barthélémy Church</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Curemonte : l'église Saint-Barthélémy&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Un autre magnifique exemple d'église de style roman, dont la structure originale remonte au douzième siècle, bien que de nombreuses modifications aient été apportées par la suite.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Le calme de ce village est impressionnant. L'absence de voitures ne vous impressionne-t-elle pas ?

The construction of this church began in the twelfth century, even if many changes were made after that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The quietness of this village is impressive. Almost no cars... the place belongs to pedestrians, as is the case in many French villages, something unheard of in Québec.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/1299.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/1299pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-4789965677390214671?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/4789965677390214671/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=4789965677390214671' title='9 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/4789965677390214671'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/4789965677390214671'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/12/curemonte-leglise-saint-barthelemy.html' title='Curemonte : l&apos;église Saint-Barthélémy / Curemonte: Saint-Barthélémy Church'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>9</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-8300182110224582656</id><published>2011-12-19T20:40:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-19T20:40:08.172-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Un ciel menaçant / Ominous Skies</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Un ciel menaçant&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;J'ai pris cette photo près de Laboutarie dans le département du Tarn. Laboutarie est un tout petit village de moins de 500 habitants. Toute cette région est absolument magnifique. Les touristes vont la plupart du temps directement aux endroits les plus connus comme Albi et ne voient jamais le reste de la région.

Laboutarie is a very small village with less than 500 inhabitants. The whole region is absolutely beautiful. Tourists often go right to popular towns like Albi and never see the beauty of the region, a real shame.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/1780.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/1780pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-8300182110224582656?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/8300182110224582656/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=8300182110224582656' title='11 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/8300182110224582656'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/8300182110224582656'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/12/un-ciel-menacant-ominous-skies.html' title='Un ciel menaçant / Ominous Skies'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>11</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-4295567982487756934</id><published>2011-12-17T19:51:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-17T20:38:10.450-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='volets'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fenêtre'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Limousin'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Curemonte'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='shutters'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='window'/><title type='text'>Curemonte : fenêtre et volets / Curemonte: Window And Shutters</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Curemonte : fenêtre et volets&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;En France, les maisons ne sont pas construites comme au Québec. Elles sont faites de matériaux solides, elles sont faites pour durer. L'isolation faut souvent cruellement défaut toutefois, une chose impensable dans le climat du Québec. Et comme l'électricité coûte très cher, on retarde le chauffage le plus possible, des conditions pour faire grelotter tout Québécois habitué à une maison chauffée dès que nécessaire. Le climat et les coûts comparés de l'énergie expliquent ces différences.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Au Québec, des volets fonctionnels sont chose très rare. En France, on les voit partout, souvent magnifiques, et aux couleurs très vives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;La photo ci-dessous montre une fenêtre du village de Curemonte dans le Limousin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Curemonte: Window And Shutters&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;French houses are not built as we make them in Québec. They're made with more permanent materials. They're built to last for a long period of time. They're not well insulated however, an unthinkable thing in Québec's climate. The fact that electricity is very expensive in France (almost three times more expensive than in Québec), one tends to save money on heating, so people from Québec shiver in French homes during Automn.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Functional shutters are very rare in Québec, while one sees them everywhere in France. They're most often beautiful and painted in bright colours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You can see below a typical window with its shutter, photographed in Curemonte in the Limousin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/1275.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/1275pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-4295567982487756934?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/4295567982487756934/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=4295567982487756934' title='20 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/4295567982487756934'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/4295567982487756934'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/12/curemonte-fenetre-et-voletse-curemonte.html' title='Curemonte : fenêtre et volets / Curemonte: Window And Shutters'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>20</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-6329558227901875215</id><published>2011-12-17T17:35:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-17T17:35:37.335-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Curemonte'/><title type='text'>Curemonte</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Curemonte&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Voici quelques photos de touriste (ça arrive...) montrant le village de Curemonte.

Je cherchais mon chemin, maintenant je sais la certitude qu'il n'existe pas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ce n'était qu'un mirage ! Saleté de vie. Pourtant... le printemps dernier, notre hôte Luc, lui-même artiste dessinateur, lui qui avait vu mon oeuvre, m'avait salué en me serrant les bras, les yeux cherchant au fond des miens : « Salut, l'artiste ! ». Il m'avait ému aux larmes et j'avais répondu avant de partir : « Je sais pas, l'artiste, je sais pas. »&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;... Il se trompait. Il faut du temps pour établir ces certitudes-là. J'ai beaucoup progressé, je suis meilleur que beaucoup je sais, mais ça ne suffit pas. Le fossé est trop profond, je vais manquer de temps, je n'y arrive pas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Je vais continuer à publier des images, mais je sais maintenant que c'est tout au plus gentil. Si cela valait plus, ma propre famille s'y intéresserait, non ? Ça les ennuie plutôt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ci-dessous, une image sans titre. Peut-être verrez-vous, peut-être pas. Je ne sais plus moi-même.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;L'hiver me glace.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;I Know, At Last&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I know at last... I know at last the agony of not knowing. I know the absolute certainty of uselessness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I know at last... I tried to find my way, now I know the certainty that it doesn't exist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A chimera! Life ain't easy. Yet last Spring, our host Luc, an artist cartoonist that had seen my work, told me when we quit, gripping my arms and looking deep into my eyes: "Salut, l'artiste !" ("So long, Artist!") Stunned and moved to tears, I had answered: "I don't know, Artist, I don't know!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yet he was mistaken. It takes time to come to those certainties. I am way better than I was, most probably better than a great many, but it's not enough. The gap is too wide, too deep. I won't have enough time, I can't do it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I will continue to post images. I now know that they are cute, nothing more. If they were truly good, my own family would be interested in my work, and they're not. They find my work rather boring.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Here is below an untitled image.

Pour des résultats optimaux, vous devez dont procéder à un post-traitement dont l'importance varie selon les circonstances et les buts visés. Comme d'habitude, je suggère de travailler avec des fichiers RAW en 16 bits par couleur, et un trépied chaque fois où c'est possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Je vous montre ci-dessous la photo finale et ensuite la photo provenant directement du fichier RAW. Un coup d'oeil permet de voir les dizaines de modifications apportées, certaines subtiles, d'autres majeures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Si vous travaillez en format jpeg, vous obtenez peut-être des résultats plus contrastés et des couleurs plus saturées. Normal, c'est votre appareil photo qui vous ment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Rocamadour: Am Example In Post-Processing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Light conditions are rarely ideal when you shoot outside. For best results, I suggest that you work in RAW format and 16 bits per colour, using a tripod whenever possible. And then the name of the game is post-processing, and this can take a while...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The first photo you see below is the final image after post-processing, the second one comes directly from the RAW file. It's easy to see that the two photos are quite different. Some changes are subtle, others quite important.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you work in jpeg format, you are possibly accustomed to more contrasty results and more vivid colours. Don't be fooled, it's your camera that's lying to you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Rocamadour, après post-traitement / Rocamadour, After Post-Processing&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/0943.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/0943pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Rocamadour, avant post-traitement / Rocamadour, Before Post-Processing&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/0943init.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/0943initpt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-2406337481352303610?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/2406337481352303610/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=2406337481352303610' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/2406337481352303610'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/2406337481352303610'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/12/rocamadour-un-exemple-de-post.html' title='Rocamadour : un exemple de post-traitement / Rocamadour: Am Example In Post-Processing'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-3184186096549853755</id><published>2011-12-11T10:07:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-11T15:52:49.869-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Rocamadour'/><title type='text'>Rocamadour !</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Rocamadour !&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Rocamadour est un petit village de la région Midi-Pyrénées.

A real small town with real people, not only tourists... It also has seven towers, and several of them have very original names. You can see below the Tournemire Tower, and an overview of the town and its towers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;La tour Tournemire / The Tournemire Tower&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/0878.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/0878pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Coup d'oeil sur Martel et ses tours / An Overview Of Martel And Its Towers&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/0890.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/0890pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-6928470506549659233?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/6928470506549659233/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=6928470506549659233' title='8 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/6928470506549659233'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/6928470506549659233'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/12/martel-la-ville-au-sept-tours-martel.html' title='Martel, la ville au sept tours / Martel, The Town With Seven Towers'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>8</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-6355396188857001288</id><published>2011-12-08T20:49:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-08T20:49:19.696-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='route étroite'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='narrow road'/><title type='text'>Une petite route de France / A Small Road In France</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Une petite route de France&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Un bon nombre de routes secondaires de France sont extrêmement étroites. Tellement étroites souvent, comme dans ce cas-ci, que lorsque deux véhicules se croisent, chacun doit impérativement rouler deux roues sur le gazon. La limite légal est souvent de 90 km/h et les gens roulent à bonne allure. Et lorsqu'ils se croisent, ils déportent automatiquement sur le gazon sans trop ralentir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Il faut des nerfs d"acier parce que parfois il n'y a pas la place nécessaire et il faut freiner en catastrophe. C'est le charme de la chose.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;A Small Road In France&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Many secondary roads in France are very narrow. So narrow in fact that when two cars travel in opposite direction, each car veers and places two wheels on the grass. The legal limit is 90km/h and drivers go fast. They slow down just a bit when they meet...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You need good nerves because sometimes there is no place at all and then you must hit the brakes real hard. It's part of the charm...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;En allant de La Croix Matthieu vers Martel / Going From La Croix Matthieu To Martel&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/0861.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/0861pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-6355396188857001288?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/6355396188857001288/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=6355396188857001288' title='10 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/6355396188857001288'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/6355396188857001288'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/12/une-petite-route-de-france-small-road.html' title='Une petite route de France / A Small Road In France'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>10</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-4956532071038585584</id><published>2011-12-08T02:16:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-08T02:16:01.861-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Nalliers church'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='église de Nalliers'/><title type='text'>L'église de Nalliers / The Church Of Nalliers</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;L'église de Nalliers&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Nalliers est une toute petite ville à une trentaine de kilomètres de La Rochelle. Une petite ville en apparence un peu banale, où peu de touristes circulaient au moment où nous sommes passés. Mais il y a, sertie comme un joyau au centre de cette petite ville, l'église de Nalliers de style roman. Nous n'avons pas pu y entrer quand nous sommes passés. Mais quelle magnifique structure.

An apparently very ordinary small town with few tourists, at least when we passed through. But we found a true jewel right in its centre, the Romanesque church of Nalliers. We could not enter because it was locked when we were there. What a magnificent structure though! Powerful and sturdily built, it appears to be indestructible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;L'église de Nalliers de style roman / The Romanesque Church Of Nalliers&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/0627.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/0627pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/0629.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/0629pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/0637.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/0637pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-4956532071038585584?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/4956532071038585584/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=4956532071038585584' title='17 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/4956532071038585584'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/4956532071038585584'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/12/leglise-de-nalliers-church-of-nalliers.html' title='L&apos;église de Nalliers / The Church Of Nalliers'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>17</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-7524585090683317810</id><published>2011-12-07T12:56:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-07T12:56:07.383-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Nalliers'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='tulipes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='tulips'/><title type='text'>Tulipes / Tulips</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Tulipes&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Nous avons vu ces tulipes quelques minutes avant d'arriver à Nalliers.

Pour ceux qui connaissent l'endroit, la distorsion introduire par la photo aérienne à courte focale est évidente. Assez pour semer le doute au début.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Les photos 2 et 3 montrent le découpage d'un promontoire au nord de Le Castel. Il était difficile de demander au pilote d'aller plus près ! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Last Aerial Photographs From The Brittany Coast&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I intended to throw away those photographs but changed my mind at the last minute, thinking that they could perhaps interest you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The first photo shows Guénolé Harbour in Penmarc'h. For those of you who know the region, there is an obvious distortion caused by the aerial photograph taken with a short focal length. This distortion is great enough to doubt at first that this is indeed Guénolé Harbour.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Photos 2 and 3 show the barren character of a promontory north of Le Castel. We could hardly ask the pilot to go nearer than that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Le port de Guénolé / Guénolé Harbour&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/9501.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/9501pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Promontoire au nord de Le Castel / Promontory North Of Le Castel&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/9716.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/9716pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/9778.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/9778pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-5675536300618298119?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/5675536300618298119/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=5675536300618298119' title='12 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/5675536300618298119'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/5675536300618298119'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/12/dernieres-photos-aeriennes-de-la-cote.html' title='Dernières photos aériennes de la côte bretonne / Last Aerial Photographs From The Brittany Coast'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>12</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-1654377300141061429</id><published>2011-12-04T10:08:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-04T10:08:10.596-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='famille'/><title type='text'>Combien sommes-nous ? / How Many Of Us Do You See?</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Combien sommes-nous ?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Quel étrange portrait de famille...

J'ai redécouvert Montréal de par mes enfants, et aussi curieusement en réaction au mépris et à l'incompréhension que beaucoup de Québécois de province professent pour elle. Injustement, et surtout par ignorance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Quatre millions de personnes vivent dans le grand Montréal, près de la moitié du Québec au complet ! C'est Montréal qui absorbe 95 pour cent des immigrants et compose avec les problèmes qui vont avec. C'est à Montréal que se livre (et se remporte...) la bataille pour la défense du français.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Mais voilà, le gouvernement est à Québec, une jolie ville certes, mais une petite ville comparée à Montréal. Et le gouvernement a doté Québec d'infrastructures en bon état et a laissé pourrir celles de Montréal. Le réveil est brutal maintenant et tous les Québécois devront payer pour l'incroyable incurie de ce gouvernement. Tous.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Et malgré ce gouvernement qui l'a négligée et dotée d'une structure politique intenable, Montréal prospère et s'embellit, et ses gens sont chaleureux. Ses femmes, bien sûr, sont les plus belles au monde...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Montréal est le coeur économique du Québec.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Montréal, A Beautiful City, My City!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I will write more frequently about Montréal in the future. I rediscovered Montréal because of my children who are true Montréalais (Montrealers...), and also in reaction to the contempt and incomprehension towards it shown by many Québécois from elsewhere in Québec. Without due cause of course, and mainly through ignorance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Almost four million people live in the greater Montréal, about half the population of the Québec province! 95 per cent of all immigrants in the province are in Montréal, with all the problems associated with integration, end up in Montréal. It is in Montréal that the battle for the protection of the French language is fought... and won!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But there is a hitch. The provincial government is in Québec City, a cute city certainly, but a small city compared to Montréal, with none of the major problems that go with a huge city. And while this government made sure that infrastructures in Québec City were in good order, it let Montréal's highways, bridges and infrastructures fall into disrepair. It was a rude awakening for that government this Spring when everybody learned that two of Montréal's main bridges were in severe danger of collapse. Every Québécois will have to pay for this horrendous mismanagement, whatever they think. Everybody, not only people from Montréal, at the cost of tens of billions of dollars.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yet despite this corrupted and incompetent government that neglected Montréal and imposed upon it an untenable political structure, Montréal grows and becomes more and more beautiful, and its citizens are friendly. Its women are of course the most beautiful of all...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Montréal is the economic and cultural heart of this province.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Coin Sainte-Catherine et Saint-Hubert / Corner Of Sainte-Catherine And Saint-Hubert Streets&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/4619.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/4619pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Étudiante universitaire sous la pluie / Female University Student Under The Rain&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/4623.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/4623pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-7128147417050216176?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/7128147417050216176/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=7128147417050216176' title='13 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/7128147417050216176'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/7128147417050216176'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/12/montreal-une-belle-ville-ma-ville.html' title='Montréal, une belle ville, ma ville !

&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;À l'intérieur de la cathédrale de Chartres : comment j'ai procédé&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;La photographie à l'intérieur d'une église pose pratiquement toujours de sérieux problèmes : l'éclairage est souvent médiocre, l'usage du flash la plupart du temps inutile. Je trouve d'ailleurs déplacé d'utiliser un flash dans une église.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Il vous faudra donc travailler à ISO élevé et vitesse lente. Si vous travaillez sans trépied, il vous faudra prendre une série de clichés et choisir celui qui a la meilleure définition et la meilleure mise au point. Mes conditions ici sont ISO 1600, f/7,1 à 1/15 s, et une distance focale de 100 mm sur un capteur plein format. N'oubliez pas que plus la distance focale est grande, plus grands sont les risques de flou !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Je n'ai pas le temps de vous décrire en détail ici tout le post-traitement. Noir et blanc d'abord, traitement du bruit de fond avec Neat Image, mise au point sectorielle, ajustement sectoriel des contrastes... Il serait aisé de prétendre que la photo ci-dessous ne correspond pas à la réalité, ce à quoi je rétorquerais que tout appareil photo vous ment, surtout en format jpeg, mais la plupart du temps à votre insu !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;La première image est le produit final. La deuxième montre en quoi le cliché initial (en dessous) diffère du produit final. :-) Regardez les deux images à pleine résolution...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Inside Chartres Cathedral: How I Proceeded&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Taking photographs inside a church will always be a serious challenge: low light and useless flash. Using a flash inside a church is not proper anyway IMHO.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So you must work with high ISO and a slow shutter speed. If you're not using a tripod, you must take a series of photos and select the picture with the best definition and focus. In this case I worked at ISO 1600, f/7,1 at 1/15 s,with a focal length of around 100 mm on a full-frame sensor. Never forget that the greater the focal length, the greater the chances of ending up with a blurred image!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I do not have the time to give you here a complete description of the post-processing operations. Black and white first, noise reduction with Neat Image, selective sharpening, selective contrasts... One could contend that this picture does not represent reality anymore. I would then answer that any camera is lying to you, specially if you're working in jpeg format, most of the time without your knowledge!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The first picture shows the final image after post-processing. The second one compares both images - after and before post-processing.

Les événements se sont passés cet été à Big Tancook Island en Nouvelle Écosse (Canada). Nous étions en vacances avec deux amis américains, James et Rebecca. Or Rebecca avait à l'avant-bras un plâtre qui devait être enlevé.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Vous savez probablement qu'au Canada les frais médicaux sont couverts par l'État. Nous ne savions toutefois pas quelle était la situation pour un visiteur américain. Nous avons donc téléphoné à l'hôpital, où on nous a dit qu'il n'y avait aucun problème mais que « de légers frais » pourraient être imposés parce que la patiente n'était pas canadienne.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;James et Rebecca se sont donc présentés à l'hôpital le lendemain matin, et là on leur a appris que les « légers frais » pour enlever ce petit plâtre de rien du tout s'élevaient à... 700 dollars ! 700 dollars pour cinq minutes de travail ! Ils ont poliment décliné et sont revenus à Big Tancook.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Mais... anticipant la possibilité d'un vol de cet ordre, j'avais apporté dans mes bagages mes cisailles Stanley, et vous pouvez voir ci-dessous comment nous avons épargné 700 dollars : Le Dr Longster enlève gratuitement le plâtre en dix minutes, à l'aide d'un tout nouvel instrument médical appelé « cisailles Stanley » ! :-)))&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;The Tale Of A Costly Cast&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is a true story. Those events took place last summer at Big Tancook Island, Nova Scotia (Canada). We were on a holiday with two american friends, James and Rebecca. But Rebecca had a small cast covering part of the forearm and this cast was due to be removed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You probably know that in Canada all medical costs are paid by the State. We did not know however if American tourists were also covered, at least in part, so we called to the hospital. We were told on the phone that there was no problem, but that a "small fee" would probably be charged.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So James and Rebecca went to the hospital the next morning, where they were told that the "small fee" was in fact 700 dollars! 700 dollars for five minutes of work in order to get rid of a small cast! James and Rebecca very politely declined and came back to Big Tancook Island.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But... I had already smelled a rat before hitting the road towards Big Tancook and I had brought with me my Very Expensive Stanley Tinsnips (15 $) in order to get rid of this cast. You can see below how we prevented Nova Scotia from stealing 700 dollars from us: Dr. Longster removes the cast for free in dix minutes, using a new medical instrument called "Stanley tinsnips"! :-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Life is fun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/3944.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/3944pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-4000416677760244059?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/4000416677760244059/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=4000416677760244059' title='9 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/4000416677760244059'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/4000416677760244059'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/11/histoire-dun-platre-couteux-tale-of.html' title='Histoire d&apos;un plâtre coûteux / The Tale Of A Costly Cast'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>9</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-7483786218219146163</id><published>2011-11-23T22:56:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-11-23T22:56:12.696-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Une fleur de Nouvelle Écosse ! / A Flower In Nova Scotia!</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Une fleur de Nouvelle Écosse !&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;D'accord, j'admets, c'est davantage une photo macro de ce qui ressemble à une abeille.

One must look at them at full resolution in order to really see what's what.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Quartier de la Défense : Reflets / Défense Quarter: Reflections&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/7479.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/7479pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/7480.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/7480pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/7482.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/7482pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-8184428233827859979?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/8184428233827859979/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=8184428233827859979' title='16 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/8184428233827859979'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/8184428233827859979'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/11/impressions-de-paris-16-impressions.html' title='Impressions de Paris - 16 / Impressions From Paris - 16'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>16</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-3643884582587409156</id><published>2011-10-31T18:57:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-31T18:57:08.723-04:00</updated><title type='text'>impressions de Paris - 12 (Reprise) / Impressions From Paris - 12 (Revisited)</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;impressions de Paris - 12 (Reprise) &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dans ce message précédent, aussi intitulé &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;L'ancien et le nouveau&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;, il y avait un élément, à mon sens important, que personne n'a remarqué, mais absolument personne.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Je vous présente ici la même photo mais à résolution encore plus élevée, 2000x3000 pixels.

Je ne comprends pas pourquoi. Il forme une entité indépendante où chaque édifice présente une architecture ultra-moderne, originale, et qui s'intègre parfaitement à l'ensemble. Il vaut la peine d'être visité.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dans mes prochains messages, je vous montrerai divers aspects de ce quartier. Certaines photos sont originales.

It is a separate entity in which each building has a very modern, original architecture, and blends perfectly with the whole. It is well worth a lengthy visit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I will show you in the next posts some photographs that should give you a good idea of this quarter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It's up to you of course to decide if I'm right or wrong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Pharmacie dans le quartier de la Défense / Pharmacy In The Défense Quarter&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/7434.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/7434pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-5332474170091537292?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/5332474170091537292/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=5332474170091537292' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/5332474170091537292'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/5332474170091537292'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/10/impressions-de-paris-14-impressions.html' title='Impressions de Paris - 14 / Impressions From Paris - 14'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-897837036602716937</id><published>2011-10-30T10:23:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-30T10:23:10.043-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Impressions de Paris - 13 / Impressions From Paris - 13</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;L'indésirable&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;J'aurais pu l'appeler plutôt « Le déshérité ». Il a sur lui tout ce qu'il possède - et il frissonne sous le soleil frais d'avril. Si je ne lui donne pas un euro, qui va le faire ? Pour lui, la question n'est pas de savoir ce qu'il va manger, mais plutôt s'il va manger. Son monde n'est pas celui des nuisances du centre de Paris - les vendeurs de tours Eiffel et autres saloperies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Et derrière l'objectif, je me fais l'effet d'un voyeur.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;The Unwanted&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I could have called him "The Destitute", "The Dispossessed". He's wearing all his belongings - and he shivers under the cool April sun. My heart bleeds. If I don't give him some money, who will? For him, the question is not what he will eat, but whether he will eat. His world has nothing to do with the parasites one can find near the heart of the City, selling small Eiffel towers worth nothing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And behind my lens, I feel like a voyeur.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Un déshérité à Paris / A Destitute In Paris&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/7628.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/7628pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-897837036602716937?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/897837036602716937/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=897837036602716937' title='12 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/897837036602716937'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/897837036602716937'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/10/impressions-de-paris-13-impressions.html' title='Impressions de Paris - 13 / Impressions From Paris - 13'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>12</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-7099772224263957664</id><published>2011-10-29T13:56:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-29T13:56:44.167-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Impressions de Paris - 12 / Impressions From Paris - 12</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;L'ancien et le nouveau&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;L'ancien et le nouveau : une très vieille rue, très étroite, aux environs de la cathédrale de Chartres.

And at the end of the street, a very modern Peugeot. Contrasts...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For most North-Americans, the French automotive industry is rather folkloric. For them, the contrast between enormous north-american cars and those agile and efficient cars is rather brutal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/8054.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/8054pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-7099772224263957664?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/7099772224263957664/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=7099772224263957664' title='10 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/7099772224263957664'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/7099772224263957664'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/10/impressions-de-paris-12-impressions.html' title='Impressions de Paris - 12 / Impressions From Paris - 12'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>10</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-4426142396886363247</id><published>2011-10-26T21:16:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-26T21:16:11.674-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Réveille-toi, mon gars ! / Wake up my man, wake up!</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Réveille-toi, mon gars !&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;J'ai vu ce gars qui roulait de façon plutôt erratique sur une rue de Paris.

Natashquan, ville du bout du monde...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Il existe à Natashquan un groupe de cabanes de pêcheurs qui font maintenant partie de l'image touristique du village. Tout le monde les photographie. On en retrouve sur Internet des centaines de photos de toutes sortes. L'ennui, c'est que...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Parce que oui, il y a un gros ennui. Et cet ennui, c'est que pour des raisons qui m'échappent, elles ne sont pas terribles du tout. Et pourtant...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Eh ! oui, et pourtant c'est si simple... Il ne faut pas se coller le nez dessus. Il ne faut surtout pas faire face au fleuve !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Pour vous, à voir seulement en haute résolution, les voici, ces cabanes. Il suffisait d'être au bon endroit. Et d'utiliser quelques tours de magie, bien sûr.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ma cote :&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Originalité : 9 sur 10&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Technique : 8 sur 10&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Natashquan !&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Natashquan is a small village almost at the end of road 138 in the Côte-Nord region. Natashquan, so far away...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There is in Natashquan a group of fishermen's cabins that belong to the village's touristic image. Everybody photographs them. One can find hundreds of photographs of them on the Internet. But...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Because yes indeed, there is a but: for reasons unknown to me, most of them are not really very good. And yet...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And yet it's so simple... Don't go too near, they lose their interest. And most of all, think about the sun and don't face the Saint-Laurent River!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Here is for you my own rendering of those cabins. This is a high resolution image and you should look at it at high resolution. So simple... one has to be at the right place... and use a bit of magic of course.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My own rating:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Creativity/Originality: 9/10&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Technique: 8/10&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Natashquan : cabanes de pêcheurs / Natashquan: Fishermen's Cabins&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/4502.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/4502pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-4257051297463876283?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/4257051297463876283/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=4257051297463876283' title='20 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/4257051297463876283'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/4257051297463876283'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/10/natashquan.html' title='Natashquan !'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>20</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-5913467394601898105</id><published>2011-10-20T09:38:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-20T09:38:51.749-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Lever de soleil sur le Saint-Laurent / Sunrise Over The Saint-Laurent River</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;

Je me propose d'y retourner durant plusieurs jours et de le visiter de fond en comble, avec ses jardins connexes comme l'insectarium.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Le Jardin Botanique est de loin le plus important au Québec et au Canada. Il se classe en fait parmi les deux ou trois plus importants au monde, autant par sa variété que par sa surface. Pas question de le visiter en une journée !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Montréal, ma ville !&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Montréal, ma ville, moteur économique du Québec, est une métropole dont les infrastructures tombent littéralement en ruines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Le gouvernement du Québec en est le principal responsable. Cela coûtera des dizaines de milliards de dollars et TOUS les Québécois devront se partager la facture. La survie du Québec en dépend, quoi qu'en pensent les gens de la ville de Québec et d'ailleurs. J'expliquerai dans les prochaines semaines comment le gouvernement du Québec, situé dans la ville de Québec, devra corriger le désastre qu'il a lui-même provoqué.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Montréal: Exotic Flower At The Botanical Garden&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I paid a very brief visit to the Montréal Botanical Garden with Suzanne Bouchard. I will certainly go back to the Garden for several days et visit it thoroughly, including the Insectarium and other institutions on the Garden's grounds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Botanical Garden is by far the most important in the Québec province and in Canada. It is in fact one of the two or three most important ones in the world. No way you can visit it in a single day!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Montréal, My City!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Montréal, my City, Québec's economic heart, is a metropolis whose infrastructures are literally in ruins.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Government of Québec is responsible for a great part of this disaster. The cost of replacing bridges on the verge of collapse and highways that are a danger for motorists will reach tens of billions of dollars, and All people in Québec will have to pay for it. whatever they think. I will explain in the following weeks what the government of Québec, located in Québec City, will have to do in order to stop the disaster that it created.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Une fleur exotique / Exotic Flower&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/4166.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/4166pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-727860735627030785?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/727860735627030785/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=727860735627030785' title='14 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/727860735627030785'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/727860735627030785'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/10/montreal-fleur-exotique-au-jardin.html' title='Montréal : fleur exotique au Jardin botanique / Montréal: Exotic Flower At The Botanical Garden'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>14</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-8607270241444562098</id><published>2011-10-17T09:25:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-17T09:25:42.654-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Une petite-fille qui aime / A Loving Grand-Daughter</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Titre français&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;La vieille dame est ma mère, la plus jeune ma fille. J'ai créé cette oeuvre il y a dix mois, à la fin de décembre 2010.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lors de la cérémonie funèbre pour le décès de ma mère, il y avait un diaporama, incluant nombre de photos de ma mère avec ses petits-enfants. Il n'y avait aucune photo de mes enfants. On a même pris grand soin de ne pas m'en parler.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ne pensez-vous pas que celle-ci aurait mérité une petite place ? Une petite place de rien du tout ?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;C'est là une insulte que je ne pourrai jamais pardonner. Des désaccords profonds entre membres d'une même famille, voilà chose fréquente. Si on y inclut enfants et petits-enfants qui n'ont rien demandé, ça devient une vendetta. Quelle sale chose.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;A Loving Grand-Daugter&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The old Lady is my mother, the younger one my daughter. I created this image ten months ago, at the end of December 2010.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When my mother died, there was a memorial service during which the family presented in the background a slideshow including many photographs of my mother with her grand-children.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There was not a single photograph including my own children, not a single one. The family made sure that I did not hear about this slideshow till its presentation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Don't you think that this image should have earned a small place in this slideshow? A very very small place maybe?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is an insult that I will never forget. Quarrels between members of a family are by no means unheard of. If one includes into the dissent children and grand-children that have nothing to do with it, it's now a vendetta. What a dirty thing to do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Un regard d'amour / A Loving Look&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/6515nb.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/6515nbpt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-8607270241444562098?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/8607270241444562098/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=8607270241444562098' title='29 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/8607270241444562098'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/8607270241444562098'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/10/une-petite-fille-qui-aime-loving-grand.html' title='Une petite-fille qui aime / A Loving Grand-Daughter'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>29</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-3429349967209047167</id><published>2011-10-14T23:39:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-14T23:39:41.854-04:00</updated><title type='text'>La Côte-Nord : territoire plat et humide / The Côte-Nord: A Flat And Humid Territory</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;La Côte-Nord : territoire plat et humide&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;La Côte-Nord, située à 1000 km au nord-est de Montréal, est un territoire en bonne partie froid, plat et humide. La Côte-Nord a malgré tout une beauté farouche, difficile à cerner. Vous trouverez plus bas un panorama qui peut vous donner une idée.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Attention ! C'est un gros document et il peut y avoir un certain délai quand vous cliquerez sur l'image ci-dessous. Je vous suggère d'ouvrir l'image à pleine résolution et de la faire dérouler.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;J'ai réalisé ce panorama à partir de cinq photos différentes prises à main levée. Il y a un tout petit défaut.

It is a cold, flat and humid region. The Côte-Nord nevertheless has a rugged, yet elusive, beauty. The panorama below will perhaps give you a glimpse of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Caution: This is a big file and it may take a few seconds before loading after clicking on the thumbnail.

C'est une catastrophe pour le monde entier. Il a toutefois reconstruit Apple de telle sorte qu'Apple n'est nullement en danger et sa capacité de création probablement tout aussi grande.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Partout, on a prédit l'échec de ses produits révolutionnaires et trop dispendieux. Portable sans lecteur DVD, iPods, iPads, iPhones... la liste est sans fin. Une tablette sans prise USB et trop chère ! Les consommateurs en ont jugé autrement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;J'espère que Jobs trouvera maintenant le repos qui lui échappait constamment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Écrit sur un énorme Mac Pro à 8 processeurs et quatre disques internes indépendants, dont un SSD.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Steve Jobs passed away. The greatest creator of the last 30 or 40 years is dead. This is a catastrophe for the whole world. He rebuilt Apple in such a way though that Apple is in no danger and its creative power probably as great as ever.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Everywhere, pseudo-experts and gurus told us that Apple's revolutionary and over-priced products would fail. Laptops without hard drives or DVD players, iPods, iPads, iPhones... a never-ending list. A tablet without USB ports and too expensive! Consumers decided otherwise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I hope that Jobs will now find the peace of mind that always eluded him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Written on an enormous Mac Pro with 8 processors and 4 independent internal drives with one SSD.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-603809749640628403?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/603809749640628403'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/603809749640628403'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/10/steve-jobs.html' title='Steve Jobs'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-6817563939213532610</id><published>2011-09-29T21:40:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-09-29T21:40:17.894-04:00</updated><title type='text'>L'église Saint-Julien, à Pauliac / Saint-Julien Church in Pauliac</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;L'église Saint-Julien, à Pauliac&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Jolie église... mais j'ai une devinette pour vous !

I kept the wing in the picture (no cropping) to show you the view while flying straight ahead. Steep turns obviously offer better viewing angles and are quite fun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you have a couple of bucks to spend, this sure is a great way to do photography.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I will show you other photographs of the coast in following posts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;La côte bretonne&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Durant notre séjour en Bretagne cet été, notre hôte Yann et moi avons loué un petit avion pour faire de la photo du haut des airs. Le pilote a suivi nos instructions et a survolé la côte, inclinant brutalement les ailes dans des virages serrés pour nous donner les meilleurs angles de vue des villes et des caps, à l'altitude la plus basse autorisée par la réglementation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;La première photo montre la côte bretonne de Lesconil (à droite) à Guilvinec, et la deuxième montre Guilvinec même et son port de pêche, ainsi que la plage plus loin. J'ai gardé l'aile dans la seconde photo pour illustrer l'angle de vue en vol horizontal normal. Des virages serrés offrent de toute évidence de meilleurs angles en plus d'ajouter un peu de piquant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Si vous avez un peu d'argent à dépenser, c'est là une excellente façon de faire de la photo, au moins pendant une ou deux heures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Je vous montrerai d'autres photos de la côte dans de futurs messages.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Brittany's Coast From Lesconil To Guilvinec / La côte bretonne de Lesconil à Guilvinec&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/9404.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/9404pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Guilvinec From The Air / Guilvinec du haut des airs&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/9415.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/9415pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-6979638183422042835?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/6979638183422042835/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=6979638183422042835' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/6979638183422042835'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/6979638183422042835'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/09/brittanys-coast-la-cote-bretonne.html' title='Brittany&apos;s Coast / La côte bretonne'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-6055807549723833041</id><published>2011-09-25T12:18:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-09-25T12:18:31.966-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Small Flower In The Morning Sun / Petite flour dans le soleil levant</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Small Flower In The Morning Sun&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Photographed in June at the Bed And Breakfast &lt;a href="http://www.likhom.com/chambre_hotes/Le-Vent-Solaire/plozevet/france"&gt;Le vent solaire&lt;/a&gt;.

Je ne verrai plus jamais mon frère et mes soeurs, ils me détestent trop.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Mais j'ai la merveilleuse Hélène, mes enfants et leurs familles, et vous tous mes amis !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Waves Dying On A Lonely Shore / Vagues qui se meurent dans la solitude&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/9168b.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/9168bpt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/9182nb.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/9182nbpt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-951768309994665652?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/951768309994665652/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=951768309994665652' title='36 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/951768309994665652'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/951768309994665652'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/08/my-mother-passed-away-ma-mere-nous.html' title='My Mother Passed Away / Ma mère nous a quittés'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>36</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-8748009711163973694</id><published>2011-08-25T13:23:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-08-25T13:23:55.386-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Our Guide In The Nantes Region / Notre guide dans la région de Nantes</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Our Guide In The Nantes Region&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She will forgive me I'm sure...

Elles donnent tout de même une idée de la beauté de cette petite ville à 50 km de Nantes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Comme vous pouvez le voir, le vieux port est pratiquement à sec à marée basse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Pornic: The Castle / Pornic : le château&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/8660.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/8660pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Pornic's Old Port At Low Tide / Le vieux port de Pornic à marée basse&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/8669.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/8669pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-1207395164558044035?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/1207395164558044035/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=1207395164558044035' title='9 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/1207395164558044035'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/1207395164558044035'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/08/pornic-castle-and-old-port-pornic-le.html' title='Pornic: The Castle And The Old Port / Pornic : le château et le vieux port'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>9</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-7839256093702937311</id><published>2011-08-13T19:15:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-08-13T19:15:45.680-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='la fontaine aux bretons'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pêcheries'/><title type='text'>La Fontaine Aux Bretons: Fishermens' houses / La Fontaine aux Bretons : Pêcheries</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;La Fontaine Aux Bretons: Fishermens' houses&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I took those two photographs in La Fontaine Aux Bretons near Pornic, France, a small town near Nantes. Thanks once again to Françoise who piloted two Strangers From Over The Big Pond right to this spot. I had already seen beautiful photos from this place on her blog, but it's hard to get a good grasp of the beauty of the coast there without actually being there. The first photo below hardly made the cut. The second one is worthy of comment I think, though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;La Fontaine aux Bretons : Pêcheries&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;J'ai pris ces deux photos à La fontaine aux Bretons près de Pornic, une petite ville près de Nantes. Merci encore une fois à Françoise qui a amené à cet endroit deux Étrangers venus de l'Autre côté de la Grande Mare. J'avais déjà vu de magnifiques photos de l'endroit sur le blogue de Françoise, mais il est difficile de se faire une idée juste de la beauté de la côte à cet endroit sans y être. La première photo ci-dessous a survécu de justesse à la coupe. La deuxième est cependant digne d'intérêt, je crois.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;La Fontaine Aux Bretons: Fishermens' houses / La Fontaine aux Bretons : Pêcheries&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/8710b.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/8710bpt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/8715b.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/8715bpt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-7839256093702937311?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/7839256093702937311/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=7839256093702937311' title='10 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/7839256093702937311'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/7839256093702937311'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/08/la-fontaine-aux-bretons-fishermens.html' title='La Fontaine Aux Bretons: Fishermens&apos; houses / La Fontaine aux Bretons : Pêcheries'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>10</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-7725583301316929021</id><published>2011-08-13T16:36:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-08-13T16:36:26.051-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Horses (Pornic Region) / Chevaux (région de Pornic)</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Horses (Pornic Region)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Those two pictures were taken in the Pornic Region.

Should it be somewhere else, like in the Quartier de la Défense, where other skyscrapers have been built?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;While I agree that it would be a mistake to build other skyscrapers in the city centre, I find the Tour absolutely and utterly beautiful. Some say that it is a horrendous mass. I find it elegant...

Certains disent que c'est une masse horrible, je la trouve au contraire élégante...

Ce n'est pas mauvaise volonté. Nous repartons en France dans dix jours, mais pour un mois complet cette fois. Nous sommes frénétiquement en train de nous préparer : endroits à visiter, réservations de tous ordres... c'est complètement fou.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Françoise a accepté de nous aider dans la région de Nantes, mille fois merci à l'avance et à charge de revanche...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Claude, je suis totalement désolé, nous ne pouvons pas passer par la Sarthe cette fois-ci, mais ce n'est que partie remise, juré, ce sera pour le prochain voyage...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;France, nous serons hébergés près de Marseille où nous avons de la parenté par alliance... mais si ! Il serait inconcevable de ne pas aller te dire bonjour... détails à suivre !

I would want to. But we're going back to France in ten days, and for a whole month this time. Planning is awfully complex, what with choosing where we will go, bed and breakfast in many places, points of interest... hectic I tell you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Françoise has kindly accepted (offered I think) to give us a hand for the Nantes region, one thousand thanks, and don't forget that we have guest room if even you cross the Atlantic...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Claude, I am terribly sorry but we will not have the time to visit Sarthe this time, but we will do it in our next trip, this is a promise...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;France, we will visit Marseille for several days, we've been invited by people related to us...  It would be unthinkable to go to Marseille and not stop and say hello to you! More info later... And don't be fooled by the portrait below, I still have the beard, at least on my passport...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/rgmai2011.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog5.artphotokebek.com/rgmai2011pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-2464129207574590551?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/2464129207574590551/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=2464129207574590551' title='8 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/2464129207574590551'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/2464129207574590551'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/05/encore-un-voyage-yet-another-trip.html' title='Encore un voyage... / Yet Another Trip...'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>8</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4731100500338248454.post-7213310876311424711</id><published>2011-05-02T05:22:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-05-02T05:22:59.673-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Impressions From Paris - 4 / Impressions de Paris - 4</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;And I Lost Her&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I was waiting alone, doing nothing, while the subway came in and stopped.

Mais cette fois-ci nous ne pouvons vraiment pas...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Nous serons en France pour 28 jours à compter du 17 mai. Arrivée par Air Transat directement à Nantes.

What I will tell you here really happened even if it may seem totally freakish.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;While Hélène was going up the Tour Montparnasse in order to admire the stunning view of Paris you get up there, I sat on a bench enjoying life. Soon after, I began a lively discussion with two mechanics from Renault and we talked, of course, about cars, motors and such. All of a sudden, we saw a guy trying to park his enormous Mercedes SUV almost in front of us. The trouble is, it's really hard to park such a tank in Paris in the best of circumstances. So this imbecile "parked" his monstrosity in that space in front of us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The word "park" is a bit violent here as the space was fit for a Clio, maybe a Mégane. Look at the first photo! He left his elephant sticking out, very neatly boxing in the cars behind and in front of him. I was so stunned that I stood up in a hurry and began to take pictures. I had seen many selfish SUV owners in my life, but THAT I had never seen. My God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What had to happen happened and pretty quickly thank you: the police arrived and immediately began writing a cute little legal document as can be seen in the second picture. The guy came out of somewhere in a hurry but to no avail.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The third picture shows the police giving the ticket to this imbecile and told him to move his mountain of steel elsewhere or they would do it for him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Pray tell me, what's the use of an enormous SUV in the streets of Paris? That's neither a bus nor a taxi... The guy proved it: it's totally out of place except in certain cases like taxis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, The Photographer Who Came From The Cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;••••••••••••••••••••••••••••&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Les tribulations d'un VUS à Paris&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Les photos de ce message ne sont ni modifiées ni truquées. J'ai toutefois camouflé les visages et les numéros de plaque. Ce que je vais décrire ici s'est réellement produit même si ça peut sembler fou.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Pendant qu'Hélène allait en haut de la tour Montparnasse pour admirer l'extraordinaire coup d'oeil sur Paris qu'on y trouve, je me suis assis sur un banc, histoire de jouir un peu de la vie. J'ai engagé peu après une discussion animée avec deux mécanos de chez Renault et nous avons causé de voitures, de moteurs et de trucs du genre. Tout à coup, nous avons vu un gars tentant de garer son énorme VUS Mercedes pratiquement devant nous. Or il est vraiment difficile de stationner un tel tank dans les rues de Paris, même dans les meilleures circonstances. Cet imbécile a donc « stationné » sa monstruosité dans l'espace devant nous.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Le terme « stationner » est certainement un peu violent si on considère que l'espace était approprié pour une Clio, peut-être une Mégane. Regardez-moi la première photo ! Il a laissé son éléphant de travers, dépassant dans l'allée, empêchant ainsi les véhicules devant et derrière lui de sortir. J'étais tellement stupéfait que je me suis levé en catastrophe et j'ai commencé à prendre des photos. J'ai souvent vu des propriétaires de VUS avoir un comportement égoïste, mais je n'avais jamais vu ÇA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ce qui devait arriver est arrivé, et très rapidement : la police est arrivée en quelques minutes et a immédiatement commencé à verbaliser, comme on peut le voir dans la deuxième photo. Le chauffeur est arrivé en quatrième vitesse je ne sais d'où, mais rien à faire...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;La troisième photo montre l'officier de police qui tend la contravention à cet imbécile et lui dit en même temps de dégager le terrain, sinon eux le feraient pour lui.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dites-moi, à quoi sert un énorme VUS dans les rues de Paris ? Ce n'est ni un bus ni un taxi... Le gars l'a montré : ça n'a pas sa place sauf dans certains cas très particuliers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roger Gauthier, Le photographe venu du froid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Absolute Contempt For Others / Un mépris total des autres&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog4.artphotokebek.com/merc1.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog4.artphotokebek.com/merc1pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;The Police Arrived Quickly / La police est arrivée rapidement&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog4.artphotokebek.com/merc2.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog4.artphotokebek.com/merc2pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;A Ticket For You, My Man / Une contravention pour toi, mon gars&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog4.artphotokebek.com/merc3.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://blog4.artphotokebek.com/merc3pt.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4731100500338248454-7483154652918123949?l=artphotokebek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/feeds/7483154652918123949/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4731100500338248454&amp;postID=7483154652918123949' title='32 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/7483154652918123949'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4731100500338248454/posts/default/7483154652918123949'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artphotokebek.blogspot.com/2011/04/impressions-from-paris-2-impressions-de.html' title='Impressions From Paris - 2 / Impressions de Paris - 2'/><author><name>Roger Gauthier</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-NVA9UUJYcc/TLc6KZejsnI/AAAAAAAAAqU/319v2ODzvuU/S220/regeridentif.jpg'/></author><thr:total>32</thr:total></entry></feed>
