Oiseaux de nuit

C'était l'excursion photo Bouthillier-Paterson samedi soir... nous nous étions promises une sortie pour capter des clichés de nuit, un style que nous apprécions tout particulièrement toutes les deux. Mon D300 était en pleine forme, la foule nombreuse et la lune pleine.

Ceux qui suivent, je les aime bien :o)

Young artist Joey L : Part 2

Canon vs Nikon

Now for a bit of fun...
This is the first time I see someone put the Canon-Nikon rivality into such a sexy metaphor.
I just love it
Enjoy !

Young artist Joey L : Part 1

The Mentawais

An interesting behind the scene video of a film & photo documentary by Joey L, about the last tribe of Mentawais, living on the Mentawai islands in Indonesia. Most of them have been forced by the Soeharto dictatorship in the 1950 to abandon traditionnal lifestyle to modernize. Most of them have followed this path but a few amongst them have resisted the change, volunteerly living in the forest as their ancestors did.

Beautiful images, both video & photo, great sense of humour
If you have 15 minutes to spare and to educate yourself :o)

Did Jesus walk on water with hi-tec shoes ?

At the beginning of this year, I was given the opportunity to work with a smart & talented young trainee, in her second year of marketing studies at the University of Sherbrooke. Her name is Audrey. She along with 3 other students are in the midst of an e-commerce course this summer, and for the occasion, they have been given the assignment of creating & maintaining of course, a sport's blog.

Very interesting content and a lot of research I suppose as they are not all sport geeks.
Congratulations folks !

We tend to encourage one and other in the blogger community ;o)

While browsing through the blog, I came across this post on how "crazy cats" are trying to walk on water. I think we can call them believers.

Brain Science Podcast

Je suis tombée tout à fait par hasard sur ce podcast alors que je cherchais des références et critiques concernant les 2 livres écrits par la neuroscientifique Loanne Brizendine, "The female brain" et "The male brain". Des livres traitant de l'importance et de la place des hormones dans le développement de nos cerveaux respectifs et ce, allant de la naissance jusqu'à l'âge d'or.

Un site absolument fascinant pour qui s'intéresse à la neuroscience vulgarisée... Près de 80 podcasts sur une foule de sujets
