2D works (2) – france!<3
here are some more pictures that i found interesting (:
this picture is taken at rue saint catherine which is the main shopping street for bordeaux. i think it was approaching christmas when i took this photo. and i liked the decorations. (: oh and btw. the title: “Etre noir de monde” is a french expression meaning that there is a whole crowd of people. literally translated, it means: black with people. so there you go (:
this is an obelisk in bordeaux (: and i took the photo downwards up to show how tall the obelisk is. and look at the sky! the light purple-pinkish tinge is damn cool! :O
this is one of the pictures that i took in the supermarket of rue saint catherine! rows and rows of wine! bordeaux is famous for wine, and the prices are really good. i was trying to capture the overwhelming feeling coming from the many many different types of wine! (:
this is one of the successful jump shots that we had in france. i though it was really touching cos you can feel the joy we had in france from just looking at the photo (:
that’s all (:
2D works (1) – memories of bordeaux’07
the three weeks spent last year in bordeaux, france was the best three weeks of 2007. here are some photos that i took there.
this is the chateau in bordeaux, archachon. the photo is taken from the interior of the castle up. the walls of the castle frame the blue sky (: i took this picture because such scenes arent easily caught in singapore. the best i ever saw was the stretch of road linking the moelc and bishan mrt. but that was destroyed by the high rise buildings.
i like the wintery feel that this picture just simply exudes. it’s so simple yet so powerful (:
this is a little medieval town in bordeaux (: i like the strong contrast between the lighting. it keeps the buildings in a shadow and brings our the magnificent clouds (: haha but the buildings are vital to the whole composition!
Another picture of the same quaint medieval town. i was trying to capture the whole of the pictoresque scene in this photo, hence the houses are kind of squeezed together. it’s so town-y! and look at the tallest architectural structure at the left hand side of the photo! culture is just everywhere (:
