Boulevard du Temple

boulevard-du-temple-daguerre
 
J’adore cette photo.
Elle n’est pas inconnue de quiconque étudie la photographie, puisqu’il s’agit de la première photo réalisée par Daguerre (l’inventeur du daguerréotype, un des premiers procédés de photographie – pour résumer) où apparaissent des êtres humains. 
Le temps de pose (environ 10 minutes) était alors si long que les passants n’apparaissent pas sur la photo. Seul cet homme qui se fait cirer les chaussures (au coin du trottoir) est resté suffisamment longtemps immobile pour apparaître sur l’image.

This picture is known from any photography student, because it’s the first picture of Daguerre (one of the inventors of photography, to sum up) where human beings appear.
Before, the exposure time was so long (around 10 minutes) that people passing by couldn’t appear on the pictures. Only this man who is getting his shoes polished (at the bottom left) stood still long enough to appear on the picture.

Comme vous venez de le constater, je suis en pleines révisions...!

Movie inspiration : Anna Karina dans Pierrot le fou


I saw this movie for the first time yesterday,
and I really like how Anna Karina's character is dressed...






this pink dress is so adorable,
and she wears it so well !
it's very classic and cute with her blue cardigan,
and it contrasts a lot with her "gangster" behaviour...




I also discovered this great actress and truly beautiful woman...
