Taken in the town near Paris where my parents live. I couldn’t resist the repetition of the heads.

As I shoot mostly square at the moment, I look for symmetry. the square format lends itself to highlighting symmetry because of the symmetry of the frame.
When I was at Paris Photo, I saw that spot and the symmetry of everything struck me. Everything was so perfectly as it should be. Except the RJ which I put in the middle to accentuate that it’s different from the rest.

Fog and sun make an interesting mix. This is also a mix of technique for me: landscape photo, but in square and monochrome. Mixing it up all round this morning.

A few weeks ago, when we were on holiday in Southern Spain, I took some photos with two film cameras: the Flexaret VI TLR and the Pentacon Six TL. The photos are nothing special, just a record of holidays and gear experiments.

Having processed the TLR photos I took in Paris, I can show them here.
That guy was taking photos of the woman in the street. She was posing for him. I found it strange that they’d do that lugging around a suitcase.

Our visit to Paris was short but busy. Just before we caught our train, we went to the Doisneau exhibition, musee Maillol.

The last time we were in Paris, we tried to visit the Picasso museum, but it was fully booked long in advance. So this time, I booked early so we could have a look.

Just back from Oslo and then Spain, we’re off to Paris for the Salon de la Photo. These photos are the ones I took with my phone. I also took some with the Flexaret TLR, but they’ll take a few days to process.
