September, 14th - A new category is in “Current Project”, the “Festival of Lights”. The origins of the festival date from 1643 when Lyon was struck by the plague. The municipal councillors promised to pay tribute to Virgin Mary if the town was spared. Ever since, a solemn procession makes its way to the Basilica of Fourvière on this day to light candles and give offerings in the name of Mary. In 1852, it became a more popular festival when a statue of the Virgin Mary was erected next to the Basilica, overlooking the city.
However, on the morning of the inauguration, a storm struck Lyon. Eventualy the skies cleared and the people of Lyon spontaneously lit up their windows with candels, descended into the streets and lit flares to illuminate the new statue and the Chapel of Notre-Dame-de-Fourvière, later superseded by the Basilica. This celebration was then repeated annually.
September, 12th - This week in “Picture(s) of the Week”, I continue with the “Human Face of Science” project, with six new people and two Nobel price laureats in physiology and medicine in 1985, Michael Brown & Joseph Goldstein.

August, 8th - In “Picture(s) of the Week”, as promised, I went again to the skate park to see Grant and his friends.
Once more, these teenagers impressed me a lot. This time I focused particularly on two teenagers, one with a BMX and the other one with a scooter. Both were totally incredible.
There are only four pictures, but, a larger number will be in the project “Gravity: Zero” in “My Current Work” hopefully by next week. The entire project will be in black & white/color form, and the postproduction for this takes more time.
August, 3rd - New category in “Current Project”.“The Human Face of Science - Part II”. At the beginning of the summer, I was asked to continue my project and photograph scientists visiting Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory for the symposium “Metabolism & Disease”.
This symposium attracts top scientists from all over the world and presented me with the unique opportunity to extend the breadth and depth of my project. The challenge was to capture something of the personality of each scientist who came to the studio not knowing me or the history of the project. They came without props and preconceptions. Within 5 minutes I bombarded them with a series of questions about their passions, hobbies, interests… Everything about them except their work! I would like to thank everyone who took part, and those who helped me organize the sessions and the logistics. I hope you will like the results.
August, 1st - It’s not that I’m homesick, but I decided to bring you to visit a French medieval village in the “Picture(s) of the Week”.
Perouges is the name of this village, and it’s really small. Cars are forbidden, and walking these streets is like going back to the past.
As each city or French village, Perouges has its own culinary specialty, the Sugar Pie with Lemon (Not really recommended to the diabetic). This is the link on Wikipedia, and the official website of this village.

Some statistics I find interesting and you might as well…
Since the beginning of the year, or to be more precise, since the beginning of my new website, two numbers have emerged, 38 & 1137,25.
The first, 38, is the number of the different countries represented by people who visit my website. The greatest numbers of hits come from Cold Spring Harbor followed by East Norwich, Moscow then Kansas City, Paris, New York, London… Attached you will see a map highlighting all the countries.
The second number, 1137.25, is the number of unique visitors per month. Apparently my new feature “Picture(s) of the Week” is very popular. I have found it’s a great way to keep you up to date with my current work. I will be continuing this feature, and please keep looking.
Between these numbers, and the people who click on the “I like” button from my website Facebook, my ranking position on Google is getting better! “Merci beaucoup”!
I will now try to work on increasing these numbers with your help. Please feel free to share my web address with your friends, and click on the “I like” button at the bottom of the page.
