And yes, I really like colored lights ^^

A picture showing the top of the front of a bar with very colorful lights, a big white street lamp in the background, and a red traffic sign on the left.

A picture showing the window of a bookshop, with some hanging colored lights in front of it.

Last month I've been dating again, and for some reason, I find that just before or after dates is a great time for taking photos of the city. Before, it helps me relax, focus, and be in the present. After, I'm still with the energy of the person I met and it makes for some nice pictures.

I didn't take so many pictures I like this month, though. I suppose it's as with anything, there are times when you are more inspired than others.

A very dark picture showing the wall of an old building, with a very bright lampost shining a yellowish light whereas a nearby window shows a room bathed in blow light.

A picture showing a very large sculpture of red lips in the foreground (part of Fontaine Stravinsky, in Paris), and in the background a very large mural depicting two characters reaching hands one towards another, above a book with the sentence "The future in unwritten". Next to it, another smaller mural depicts a cat, and another one shows the face of a person holding a finger in front of their mouth.

A picture of a quite strange piece of art above a basin full of water. with the public lighting casting beautiful reflections on the scene. In the background, a lit bar is full of people.

Those last ones were taken just a few days ago, during a beautiful walk with @spaceluciolle@twoot.site The light was amazing.

A picture showing a dark commercial building at sunset, with only some windows dimly lit. Contrasting with it, the sky is lit in beautiful pink, orange and blue tones, and in the foreground, a warehouse with two trucks in front of it is very brightly lit.

A picture of a canal in Paris, the sky being illuminated with beautiful orange and blue tones that reflect on the water. Passerbys are walking near the water on the left, and a brightly lit riverboat is visible on the right.

A picture showing an electric post in the left of the picture, with some wires hanging from them to the bottom right of the pic. Below, some train tracks are dimly illuminated by an orange sky, and a metal bridge is visible in the background in a cityscape.

Some of the colors of the night in December.

I didn't take that many photos. As I mentioned in the past, I think photography has some therapeutic aspect to me, and I'm in a much better place mentally and emotionally than a few months ago, so I think it's part of why.

But I still love some of them, especially the first. I still want to get better at it, and at photo editing too. And there are still a few lenses I would love having the money to get.

In the meanwhile, enjoy!

A picture taken by night, centered on a lamppost. The background of the picture is slightly off focus, but the left part shows a white building illuminated by a blue light, and the right one some other buildings lit by red light, the picture being seemingly bisected by the lamppost. Some tree branches are also present in the foreground on the left of the picture.

A photo taken in Paris at dusk, showing the streets and building. The sky had a nice gradient from pink to dark blue, the red an yellow lighting trom traffic signs, lampposts and car headlights is reflected by wet pavement in the foreground, and a person is walking in front of the street, among an advertising sign, a glass collection container, a tree and an iconic "Colonne Morris".

A picture taken by night in a slightly narrow passage. Several purple fluorescent light tubes are affixed to the right wall, illuminating the left one in a dim purple light. At the end of the passage, a gray door in a yellow brick building is extremely well-lit by a lamp above it, contrasting with the globally dim picture.

A pictire showing a street of Paris by night. On the left, a bar has a blue neon sign which is partially occluded by a tree, leaving only the word "rêve" (dream) visible. On the right, a lampppost has been damaged and is slightly bent, leaning to the right. Some dimly lit windows are visible abovethe bar.

Random photodump from the beginning of the year. There is none I'm really super proud of, but enough that I like enough to post. Still mostly, you know, the night.

I love my little Panasonic Micro 4/3 hybrid but I'm more and more considering moving to full format, when I have the money. A bigger sensor has all sorts of advantages, and some of the model I'm seeing as not as bulky as they used to.

A picture of Paris by night showing a canal framed by lamposts and street lights. There is a somewhat eerie glow in the background.

A picture of a Paris canal by night. The picture is focused on the red, pink and white reflections of traffic lights and street lighting in the water. A fire station is visible on the right, as is an out of focus lampost on the left in the foreground.

A pcirure showing a restaurant on the side of a canal, with pink and yellow lighting reflecting on the water. The city skyline is visible above, in front of a dark blue sky.

Some more pictures from January and February. Enjoy!

A picture of a large street of Paris at dusk. The yellow headlights of cars and a bus reflect on the wet pavement in the foreground. In the back, a church tower is visible over a pink and blue sky.

A picture of a light blue and pink sky seen through some tree branches and rail catenaries.

A picture of a street in Paris centered on a lampost from which a red chinese lantern is hanging. On the right, a large mosaic by Invader depicting a blonde woman in a white apron is visible on a wall above an old painted advert. On the left, some buildings are visible, with another lampost and chinese lantern a bit further.

A picture taken at night from a bridge over a canal in Paris. It's focuses on the guardrail, the city lights and reflection behind being out of focus, as well as a bright yellow display showing "PONT OUVERT" ("BRIDGE OPEN")
