We only got to work at one spot as a huge(and very rare here) downpour rolled in, You can see the looming clouds in this shot.

These were shot on the street with the rest of society rolling by.
Three homeless men sitting on a bench, we first noticed them about one week ago. They are there all day, everyday. Before and after the shooting I talked to them quite a bit and gave them some money to help out, it was a very interesting encounter.

I was thinking about this idea with the sand for a couple days before. So we hauled out the big flashes for this shoot.. my first location action shoot with the new Nikon D3 + 24-70 2.8, the gear performed beautifully.

Here are a couple of the first shots I’ve processed, we were out there cooking in the sun for the afternoon but it was worth it !

The opening was a great success !! the gallery was packed, the mayor of montpellier came to give an opening speech as well as the Minister of culture and Minister of sport for the region and Thomas from Attitude.

The exhibition was in the gallery St. Ravy for one week, great gallery and the prints were incredible!!
We chose to use a sublimation process whereby the images are printed/bonded directly to an aluminium sheet giving beautiful results. Really it has to be seen to be believed !

Thanks to: Attitude http://www.attitudeasso.com/ for having made this exhibition possible !

Here are some snapshots from the gallery,

Next the exhibition went off to Nimes for the Vauvert Hip hop festival!
