Sorry to have y’all waiting so long for a bit of news but I’ve been kind of busy. I haven’t even had a chance to show you some images of a short trip we took to the south of France featuring sun, sea, snow, castles, snakes and scorpions. What have I been busy with? An architectural shoot of the Collège néerlandais, the only building of Dutch architect Dudok in France. It dearly needs to be renovated and to raise funds, you need images: they tell a better story than thousand words…

Indeed they are: Nicolas Sarkozy, President of France, and Jan Peter Balkenende, the Dutch Prime Minister, meeting this afternoon for lunch in Paris at the Elysée palace. And so I add another one to the long list (two) of French presidents looking right in my lens. The other would be Monsieur Sarkozy’s predecessor, Jacques Chirac.
