Resistance is futile.

It's back to school today in France, for millions of kids! Thousands of teachers started last week, to prepare classes, do paperwork, to prepare themselves... Shocking news: smartphones are forbidden in all schools from today! Oh well, guess kids will have to use their heads instead.

Summer in the city

September 1st CDP theme day: teach

I am fairly proficient in Adobe's Lightroom, filters, HDR, ACR, and so on, but nothing more complicated. So, I bought the books, watching the videos and trying to TEACH myself what must be the most complex photography editing program: Photoshop. Again. Wish me luck! :-)
More on the TEACH theme here.

A place in the shade

Good oirish weather today, rainy and cold, no need for shade. But hey, it's the weekend! Click here for more b&w to lighten your friday!

Happy hippies

Spotted this in some shop. Wishing I could go back in time!
Here is the slightly more psychedelic version.

Not Strasbourg

Right. This blog is called Strasbourg daily photo, and other meanderings of a nomad. I am the nomad... So, this blog is mainly about my hometown, but not only...I love murals, but there are not many around. Therefore, during my frequent trips, I am always looking for them, and I post them here, on Facebook and Instagram. My meandering murals.
This one was taken in Paris, 19th arrondissement, near la Villette.

Out there

Just a few minutes from town...

Before people

I love walking in town very early... I did the same whilst living abroad, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Dublin, New Delhi, and so on and so forth... It's all so quiet, as the singer Bjork used to say 20 or so years ago, all so quiet and peaceful, until...

Black and white weekend

Another Budapest metro station, for Dragonstar's Black and white weekend meme

Petite France
