Domestic Symphony

A bit of humor:


"HUMOR mode ON!

This portrait I made while we were joking about COVID19. It was the first day that we knew we were postive and we felt like we had a flu and we thought we needed to take it with a bit of humor, and in a moment, while my wife was doing "silly stuf", with laughter, I took my camera and made this portrait. She thought I would be so fast to make the portrait... but she was wrong!!

I think humor is really important in our lifes and in this picture I tried to capture it..."

Shab, I didn't realise you and your family had caught Covid19. I'm very sorry to hear that. Your own infection seems serious. I wish you the best for a full recovery. Look after yourself.

Thank you! Today has been a GOOD day for me! Tonight has been the first time I have dreams/nightmares in a month. The past four weeks, I haven't remenbered my dreams/nightmares, it was like my mind was off.

Glad you/your family are doing better. I know quite a few people who have had COVID and all of them said it was awful.

I love the sax photo. That expression is priceless.

Thank you very much Dogman! Yes, now we are much better. 🙂 It has gone!

Here another portrait of the sax player. Tomorrow he has a sax competition and he is a bit nervous...

 

[Dogman]

He's gonna do fine in the competition. He might be nervous now but he has that underlying "look" of confidence. Best of luck to him.

[Shab]

It's a long time I didn't make pictures, after the COVID. But the last days I have begun to make some with my smartphone.


Here you have the one I love the most from them. I made it in a really special moment, full of PEACE, with my sons and daughter in Breizh (Brretagne in french).


Wish you will enjoy it!

Sure I enjoy your picture! But even more I like that you are somehow back to photography, it does not matter the tool you use because your eye is still good for a perfect framing, iphone or a more classic camera.
Enjoy the good moment with your family.

It's lovely, Shab, and really good to see you back.

 

[Mlehrman]

I've enjoyed this series since the start, and it only gets better. Best wishes for a full recovery.

Thank you very much Robert. Yes, it seems, slowly-slowly my brain is coming back... and there is photography "borning" again. A big hug! I wish you are fine...

It's lovely, Shab, and really good to see you back.

Thank you very much pyeh! It's a pleasure!
