Photographer’s Note

HI everybody, after some days really OFF, I came back to the connected world, heard the news...and the good mood was gone... I remember the exchanges I've had here with fellow photographers from the affected area, I hope they are safe. All my sympathy goes to people living in these regions and countries.

Today's post refers of course to a place where people hopefully will find some support for their bodies and souls.

Bonjour Jean-Yves. Welcome Back.

I have been to Malacca, & it was raining. :( Fortunately, this area wasn't affected by the tsunami.:) I like the blue sky & the red walls of this historical edifice. Tres bon!

Jean Yves,
Dans cette tragédie on parle peu de la malaisie, et pourtant ils sont dans certaines régions gravement touchés.
Je souhaite que tes amis soient sauf.
Belle architecure, classique avec ce eptit coté exotique de la couleur.
Compliments
Jean Michel

On ne peut que souhaiter que l'année 2005 soit moins dramatique que les précédentes...
Un sujet intéressant, la couleur me surprend un peu, c'est original. Bonne composition, un cliché très réussi Jean-Yves !

Effectivement, cette fin d'année 2004 aura été terrible pour beaucoup. J'aime bien ta photo en hommage à toutes ces victimes. L'église est par ailleurs très bien cadrée.
Meilleurs voeux également pour 2005!

Otima imagem, otimo texto Jean Ives. Muito expressiva a sua ideia.
Happy new year.

Very sharp relief, this shot of yours Jean. I think by now, the tsunami victims are feeling the attention and care given to them by the rest of us. We all should be like Mother Earth. Non differentiating. Whether you are black, white and anything in between or whatever religion you believe in, it just doesn't care. Maybe, if we are kinder and more appreciating to each other, Mother Earth might not be so temperamental.
