Although I'm no artist, I happen to practice photography as a hobby. Because sometimes I achieve reasonable quality with my photographs, and since I'm now equipped with a digital camera, I'm proud to share them over the Internet. I'm not the kind of guy who likes to tweak his photographs too much, so when it comes to tweaking pictures I usually don't go much further than cropping and tuning colours. When I'm pleased with the result I spread it over the Internet as desktop/screen wallpapers. Or else.

An ant wandering on a daisy

Probably the most post-treated photograph I've ever published : surroundings are turned black & white and soften (blurred), the flower itself has increased contrast and saturation. Tweaked using Picasa.

A beetle wandering on a yellow flower

This is rose chafer (Cetonia aurata), sometimes called green rose chafer.

3 little water drops on a leaf, which make me think about a tiny family…

Scenic landscape

Well at least it is scenic for the place where I live. Color saturation is due to a circular polarizer filter.
