Jelena Jankovic ~Paris, June 1st 2009~
[699x547]

Somebody asked me: "Why didn't you put her in colours?"....
When I was at the University, I've made a these which had for subject:"Paris seen by the American writers between the two World Wars".
In working on it, I've made a lot of researches about the Russians who were leaving in Paris in the 20's...and especially about Diaghilev and his "Ballets Russes"...
So when I saw this pic, I've immediately thought about "Le train bleu" because of the association with the tennis player, originaly played by Bronislava Nijinska... http://www.vam.ac.uk/images/image/53610-large.jpg http://www.danser-en-france.com/repertoire/balletsrusses/nijinska.html
Of course, Jankovic's dress doesn't have the charm of the Coco Chanel's clothes but her attitude made me think imediately about a dancer one....

Raymond Depardon..~March,15th 2009, Paris~

[519x698]

Twenty-three years ago, I discovered Depardon through his Book: "Les Fiancées de Saïgon"...
I immedialtly loved his photos and the way he was commenting them with short, unfinished sentences...with sometimes just some few words...but which were meaning a lot by the silence surrounding them...

Last week, I've bought my second Depardon's Book: "Voyages"...and it was a real shock...
I needed one week to be able to escape from it...

This book is dangereous for some people...it gives you the Desire to quite your job, to bring with you the one you love, to take a small bag with just two jean's and two sweaters.... to run to the first airport for buying airplane tickets and fly at the other side of the world for taking photos... :(
