Ninteenth Abandoned Photo


Printemps in Liège (Pont de Fragnée)
6 x 8 inches

This image has been selected for a photo exhibition on September, in Belgium. The photo has a partner (it will be in the exhibition too), it's a similar image showing the same sculpture in winter. That's an image with many white tones because the sculpture is covered by snow. But for this time, I prefer showing the "black" version" 

The sculpture is on a bridge which I had to cross for going to my home when I was in my first year of doctoral school. I like the guy because he was impassive whatever happens. And when I was worried for something, I always said "Remember your friend on the bridge, he never gives up, he always holds up his heavy shell. Do like he does, Don't give up!". Sometimes I think I was crazy, I mean, a sculpture was my inspiration! But who cares, it did work! Well, this image represents one of the best moments I had with my friend the sculpture. And he's still there, he never gives up. 

The nineteenth abandoned photo is on a street! If you find it, please leave a comment here! I want to know what do you think about the photo!


Eighteenth abandoned photo

"My guitar is so beautiful. Sometimes I wish I could play it" 
Leonard Cohen

A man and his guitar. 
6 x 8 inches

There are many sacred things in a man's life. A guitar is one of the most sacred ones. It's an eternal companion and love. Once you have the right one, you can't leave it. You can't. But sometimes the guitar goes and you can't play it anymore. My guitar has gone, I've lost it. And I'm lost without her. 

Maybe you can't find my guitar. It's complicated. But maybe you can find the photo "A man and his guitar". I shot this photo many years ago at a beach in the Gulf of Mexico. I like it! If you like it, it can be yours! 

The eighteenth abandonded photo in on a street now. If you get it, please leave a comment here!
