When Kitty meets Danbo

Kitty crosses Danbo. Oh no, please help little Danbo getting out of that phone screen...

Ow, okay... I was kinda bored that day, grabbed my camera and started shooting at anything. My sister lent me her iPhone for a minute and I took this shot. I attached a macro extension tube to my lens so I could get very close.

ISO 800 - 40mm (+macro ring) - f/4.5 - 1/50s

Eat me... or not.

A bit of nature at the edge of the forest in Céret, France.

Shadows are thirsty

Casted shadows on white wall, man drinking.

Ambiance

A little bit of composition, playing with candles to render a softly lit ambiance, zen attitude. The sun  went down, the whole house goes into darkness, the warm glow of candles is magic.

Duplicated memories

A photo of a photo, a mere nothing amuses me.

Louison ;)

Alice, tea time

Will you take the time to drink some tea? Mmh not sure...

I had the opportunity to test a 50mm lens (EF50mm II), got it from a friend of mine who lent it to me; it's pure goodness for shallow depth of field (max f/1.8), the background got blurred out tremendously well.

These 2 miniatures are Disney miniatures (duh, quite obvious I guess), the light source in the background is a small Ikea rubber lamp :-) and behind the lamp, synthetic cherry blossoms.

All these details are fading away in the depth of field but that's one thing you look for when shooting at a small aperture value (f/1.8)... Enjoy!
