Me Myself and I:

It's not an easy thing to write on ourself, no?
I don't want to look like Alain Delon, so using the third person isn't possible, also using "I" every 10 words is a bit too narcissic... So here's an hard cold list of noticeable personal facts:
34, married, 1 daughter, french guy from France, living in Montréal, Québec, Canada.
Founder, CEO, CFO, CTO of Byzance Design Inc. a nice little webagency wraping all my freelance works.
Okay, I'm also the main worker there.

Photo - Image - Picture Blog:

This blog is running since January 2006, and the present version is the third one.
As a "culturally" graphic oriented guy (started graphic compo on Amstrad CPC!) my main interest is more the final picture than photo in general.
So, this blog is the place where I'm posting my current explorations and experimentations in image production.
Even if my photos remain my favorite raw material (as it's really easier and faster than drawing) this blog is clearly "Photoshop" post processing oriented.
The previous version of this blog was already offering before and after. Now what's up? Here's a comprehensive description:
Regular posts of original photography, visually enhanced and retouched using Adobe Photoshop. Most of time Photos, Images, Pictures, are posted with a before (raw picture) and after (Photoshopped) view.
Also you can enjoy up to 4 steps post-processing views and a FREE downloadable PSD file (Adobe Photoshop CS4) to learn/study/understand all photoshop technics used for photo post-production, restauration and enhancement.

Music:

As you may noticed all posts are "soundtrack suggested", these are choosen because I think music fit well with the pic, and/or title words fit well with too. These are mainly electronic music, from idm to detroit techno, I love electronic music since numerous years.
This third blog version is using Bleep player and an Amazon player. Finally I'm pretty glad to see that Amazon MP3 have a really huge choice of electronic music mp3 (fitting my tastes) to buy at only .99$.
The best thing is that I'm affiliated, so I'll become rich thanks to you :D
