My life has definitely calmed down these past couple of weeks, I can finally perceive the time that passes by (by me), as I can’t say I could before. I don’t freelance much and I can’t say I work on my things that much eighter. Not from being lazy, nor from a lack of motivation per say; but from trying really hard to be able to just do nothing for a moment without feeling the guilt of wasting hours. I think I succeeded, or I am on the right path. I feel better I think, things looks different, a beer is not 5 minutes of wasted time anymore, and a walk outside is not a waste of an hour, and skating outside taking pictures is no more a day that I will regret.

Have you looked at the gorgeous sky lately.

So like any photo hobbyist, the urge to get a second lens made his toll. I decided to go with a Tokina 12-24, it’s pretty much all I can afford right now, and I knew I could pull amazing pictures out of it. I went for a little stroll around downtown with the eye of someone who has never seen Montreal. I came back with 40 nice shots on 200. Here is a few of them.

Esse has been working with traditional mediums these past 2 weeks, as we are looking into new things to learn. We started shipping Erri this week, and they are disappearing fast. We are down to 30 copies or so.

So we are back in Montreal, and we are swamped. So many things on our festive plate, that we will hardly have time to be take our breaths. In 2 weeks, the Kinetik Festival begins, in a month we will launch our new book, Erri. We restocked Merure Books at PlaneteBD and we will receive the new Vambits shortly. We registered a publishing company with a few friends under the name Les Éditions MachineMachine to help the publication of the 2 books we have the upcoming ones.
