Lyon, France: beauty in a puddle


Though I’ve found myself unable to take any satisfying photo for the past two weeks, I still have loads of photos to share from the previous months, quite fortunately. In fact, I think the reason why I haven’t shared them yet is that they are so many that I always put up my publishing them on this blog to another day, to the extent I’ve ended up not publishing anything for quite a long time. I know : sometimes, my mind can get pretty irrational.

Anyway, tonight, I’ve decided to share some photos of Lyon.  I know, it’s not that original. But what can I do ? Lyon is one of my favorite places to photograph, and even though I found it quite gloomy the last time I went there, I still managed to find a way to spend three hours walking across the city in search of some good photos to take.

Of course, most of the photos I share are photos of places I like reflecting in puddles. Though I think I’ll move on to other photography interests sooner or later, and probably pretty soon to be quite fair, until now, it was enough to make me smile all day long when I was out taking pictures. This is exactly me : when I find something I like, I tend to stick to it for quite a long time, and it takes me a lot of effort to move on to something else. Or a new obsession !

But as I said, I’ll move on to other interests pretty soon. I just need winter to end, and a new macro lens to capture the beauty of nature coming back to life in Spring, my second favorite season after Fall.

In the meantime, I’ll focus on sharing most of the pictures I’ve gathered in the past year, and not taken the time to include in my articles.

  1. I always love (and am inspired by) your reflection photos, Pierre — but I look forward to seeing where your muses will carry you next as well! Gorgeous work here, as always …

    1. Many thanks 🙂 I guess I’ll still take reflection photos, but won’t limit myself to it. I want to go back a bit into macro photography when spring comes back, and also try to be a bit more creative (though I still don’t know how) and step out of my current routine when looking for pictures to take. And try to tell more stories, i.e. build series. That would be great !

      1. I for one would be delighted if you told more stories (either through words or through photo series) in the year ahead! Wherever your creative inspiration takes you, I hope it will bring happiness and contentment.

  2. I love the Hotel de Ville photo, with the wires. Th light and colors in the first one are beautiful….I agree with Heide, whatever you do, I will be interested to see it, and I trust that at least while out taking pictures, you are content. Looking forward to Spring!
