A huge environmental disaster in China
Take a look at this photo. What does it show? The results of an invasion by aliens?
No. It’s again all about a huge oil spill. This time in China.
There’s more evidence of the disaster.

Hypermarket
When we do a shoot, we go to the supermarket, but not such a big one—big but not so big. They asked me to come to the supermarket very early in the morning before opening, around six or seven o’clock in the morning. And the young person came, and I’d ask them to make this street-type kind of jump, one very inspired by La Chute, where people are floating in the air. The second type of attitude was feeling like it was a fight, like a punching ball. Really to express the violence of this consumerist society to be like an aggression.
Next time you’ll visit your supermarket don’t forget: there are alternative views of the same things.

Before you taste this spring during a trip on those hills or next to the sea, take a deep breath and enjoy the latest issue of Pictory which is about the best season of the year.
Amazing work.
Cloak Bag
This camera is extraordinary because it let’s you shoot without taking it out of its bag.
(What? Without taking it out of the bag? They must be crazy!)
