Spring is coming!

After a very tough winter, I sincerely wish that this spring turns out to be as amazing as this flowers that grow at work!

Trying out HDR

My first try at HDR, I really like it. I know I'll have to get better, but I just like the technique :)
What do you think?

Il fait froid!!

Today it is so cold here that the water and the grass on the roadsgot frozen! I know that for some places a little bit of ice is no big deal, but here in my city it is not very common for temperatures to be below 0 degrees centigrades...
Here is a pic I took from a hot spring that is besides the road toward my work!

I'm adding this pic to the Black and White Wednesdays in The Long Road to China! Go there to check out all the other stunning pictures! :)

Have a wonderful wednesday!!!

Friday night with the girls

Friday night, we had homemade pizzas with my best friends C. and R.
We had so much fun, although we were all super tired. We did an improptu mini-shoot and here are the results. I put the camera on a timer so I could appear on the pics too :)

So yummy was the Ferrero Rocher!!! Look at my Friend's C. look of pleasure!

So gorgeous yet so sad

This is Laica and I found her while I was travelling back home after my winter holidays. 

She looks so sad. She looked like she had lost it all.

And she stood quite still as I got my camera and took her portrait.

So gorgeous, yet so sad.

I'm linking her to the Black and White Wednesdays. Have a beautiful wednesday!

I learned about this new weekly challenge in Allie's blog and it seems like a nice opportunity to share our work and to learn from each other and from the themes of every week. So I decided to participate too ^^
I took this self-portrait for a photography course I'm doing. I found out it's really hard to get a picture of myself that I liked! I took it with this settings: f4 ISO 200 1/25s

Colour purple

 "What are you looking at?" seems to say my sister-in-law...
