hectic but still alive... busy but chilling out... yes i know it sounds weird but it's true actually...
i am gonna have a blog soon so this journal should be updated more often... i'll post updates by sms and i will post pictures or whatever i want to illustrate my messages.. it's gonna be wicked...
so to sum up my last month...
i went back in england: london - porthtowan - newquay - London... that was cool. kernow is an amazing place... i stayed there with my friend gina at sarah bentley and marcus flat in porthtowan... in a very nice and quiet village nearby the ocean... just wonderful!! but the water is frozen there!! you must have a wetsuit to go surfing or swimming.
after that i went shooting at the boardmasters in newquay... windy, rainy... i was told it's become just sunny and so perfect just after i left... of course!!
then i stayed locked in my dark room in the heat (the temperatures were incredibly hot last august here!!)... working on the pictures i took in england... and i almost died: no air, just staying locked in a room full of chemicals... it was pretty hard to work in these conditions...
then i drove down to the south west of france for the wqs comps (surfing events, in lacanau and in seignosse) i stayed almost 3 weeks in my van, i took 21 rolls... and i am now working on these images. Well the only thing i can say now is that there are a lot (but really A LOT!) of portraits... i think i am gonna make a big gallery portraits of the pro surfers on my website. it should be on line.... well, hopefully soon!!!!
as usual i had a ton of idea so the website should change soon... as usual: new categories, new pictures, quotes... and the blogg!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (thank you so much to the brain, Bounwawa Hutchison!!!!)
i have been working on a cd with all my pics of india, nepal and the tibetan refugee camps as well during the last 3 days for a british mag quite famous in the uK named TNT... well if you have grabbed one yesterday, you might have seen one of my picture... they used one of my photographs of the tibetan refugee camps in the issue of this week... i should receive it soon. i also have some images in the new Extreme World News... i haven't seen it yet, but i think they have used some of my pictures from the snickers game on in london (a sk8 - bmx event) and the pics i took of the oil on the french beaches last winter... well i think that's all i have in magazines this week...
tomorrow i am going to paris, to demonstrate against the use and abuse of/on animals in circus... the demonstration should start at 2 pm in front of the minist�re de l'�cologie, 20 avenue segur, dans le 07�me arrondissement...
well that's it for today, thanks for your interest,
no�mie.
