A quick return to iPhone photography. This morning I found this incredible app: Snapseed from Nik Software. I am completely thrill by it.
At $5.00 it may seem pricey by iPhone apps standards, it is all worth it!
The UI is completely different from anything I have seen so far. There is 2 functions that alone, justifies the acquisition of Snapseed:
The ability to perform selective adjustment (brightness, contrast and saturation) on parts of the image.
The variety of variations in the Grunge effect is outstanding, more than 1,000.
If you do iPhone photography, you must get Snapseed!
This app also works on the iPad and latest iPod.

I know this may be hard to believe but here the story goes: during a fly fishing session at the lake Rognon (Vendée), I had all the trouble of the world to catch fish.
The day was really, really hot, better suited for swimming than fishing. Anyway, a bass with what seemed to be a strange mass on its back came around my fly, 3-4 times from underneath the water, around 3 or 4 feet deep.
I was going nowhere fishing wise and decided to trade my fishing rod for my camera, to try to get an image of the fish. I have put liquid silicone on one of my flies and dropped it on the water with no line.
After 10 minutes, the fish reappeared, still to deep to be caught on camera. Another 10 minutes passed, I was sweating like being in a sauna and was close to quit, when from nowhere, the bass jumped over the water as if he tried to taunt me. By sheer reflexes, I was able to take a single shot.
When it happened I didn’t have time to realize what went on, Man, what a surprise when a start to process the image to find that the fish was wearing a hat! Totally incredible, insane!
I thought I have seen many things in my life, but a bass with a hat…
On that note, I think I need a good scotch.

I am sorry, don’t really know how to explain this one, this image was inspired by a very old song from by a french speaking clown from Quebec.
If you want to damage your culture, here is the song: “Gros Minou de Patof”

This is my new kitten, Youri (as in Youri Gargarine, the first astronaut). I wanted at first an orange cat, our vet had some kittens for adoption. When I saw him, it was love at first sight.
In addition to be very photogenic, he is very calm, loves to play and is super affectionate.
The Man is happy!

Unfortunately, not as much as the males for the Red-winged Blackbird.
Took me some time to find her specie as there is such a difference between the specimen sexes.
