Fall in Switzerland
Some quick news: I'm currently in Geneva, to follow a training before going to Central African Republic in two weeks. Looking forward to being back in Africa and to discovering something new.
21 October 2012: Versoix, next to Geneva, Switzerland
London
A few pictures from London, around Brick Lane. Nice place, particularly on Sunday, with the "vintage market" and of course, the best British cuisine: Indian food :-)
I also recommend a very nice photo exposition at the Barbican: Everything Was Moving. I am not totally sure to have seen the link between all the pictures published, but it remains really interesting. Some photographs are already famous (e.g. a few from Larry Burrows, in Vietnam or from Ernest Cole, in South Africa) but I discover with pleasure the work of a few other photographers, including Bruce Davidson (photographer for Magnum).
Now, back in Switzerland, I see myself repeating the same process, while preparing my departure. But that's another story...

Preparation
After some hard work, the book for the Fundation Achalay has finally been published. I'm not totally satisfied with the color rendering and particularly for the cover, but with such a limited time at my disposal, I'm globally happy and glad I can start working now on new projects. Currently, it mostly means preparing my deployment to Central African Republic and before that, a three weeks course in Geneva.
I am also looking for a portrait lens, as my Canon 24-105 f/4.0 is not producing a depth of field or bokeh really interesting. My 24mm 1.4 (maybe my favorite lens) is great but obviously can not be used for close-up/head shots. I'm really looking forward to start playing with it (certainly a 100 f/2.8 IS or 135 f/2.0).
The coming weeks should be great, professionally and personally speaking. Inch'allah
