Passionate by photgraphy, I practice it durring my free time. I live in France and I don't work in photography. Actually, i'm a junior ingineer. 

As stuff, I use a camera Canon 7d with a Canon 15-85mm IS, USM lens and a Tokina 11-16mm .

I think that nowdays, photography easy to do with numerical material. I think that the difficulty isn’t in taking photographs but in taking original one. Actually, we can’t be different by the camera technique. It’s the reason why I search original subject, so I practice urban exploration, called “Urbex” in order to capture a different atmosphere. In fact, it’s also a kind of adventure.  

The Urbex, is an activity that conciste to visit derelict buldings to take original pictures.

There are some essentials rules, we don’t break or steal something et we have to be discreet. Furthermore, visit this sort of places is very interesting about technics. We can explore every part of the building and see every technical parts that it’s not really possible when the place is in use. 

I would like to point out that everyone else who would like to practice urbex, that this activity could be dangerous. We mustn’t go there alone, and we have to be careful about lake of structure that could bring us to cross through a floor or take one on our head. It’s the same thing for technical installation as electricity of fuel. It’s not because a place is derelict than technical connections are neutralized, so be careful to bare wires!
