Back to where it all began: jumping in Oslo and Happy New 2011!

1 January, 2011 from Oslo, Norway Leave a Comment

On December 27th, 2008 I was in Oslo and shot the first Jumping Picture of the serie. Two years later, i’m back jumping there !

Jumping in Oslo

 

During these two years: dozens of countries, hundreds of jumps from France to Canada, from Spain to Russia, from Ireland to China.

As i’m writing this (Feb 2011), I’m currently in Mauritius Island. That will be the first jumping pic from the southern hemisphere! And what about in two years from now ? I guess many more jumps, travels and backpacking indeed !

There are so many places yet to discover, so many people to meet, so many languages to discover and food to try. It would be a pity of stopping now, wouldn’t it ?

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2011… and JUMP ! 🙂

Jumping above the Artic Circle for finishing 2010

30 December, 2010 from Tromso, Norway Leave a Comment

After Christmas, I flew over to Norway with friends to go chase Northern Lights and ride dog sleds above the Artic Circle. We chose Tromso as our basecamp.

Tromso at this time of the year is magic: no more sun, but just 3 or 4 hours of low light everyday. Snow everywhere, many islands, few people, good weather most of the time we were there. You end up sleeping 12+ hours a day (which in my case is nothing new, but for other people can be quite disturbing!) and enjoying the little light we had as a precious moments.

We did see and shoot some amazing Northern Lights. But by the time we figured out how to take a jumping pic under them (tripod, long exposure, additionnal flash synchronised with the jump)… they were gone. Next time we’ll be ready !

The picture below was taken outside Tromso, in a Fjord where we spent a day in a cabin along with some cheerful Erasmus students and couchsurfers.

Family Jumping for Christmas

25 December, 2010 from Crest, France Leave a Comment

I don’t remember spending a Christmas with so much snow and wind. It was so wild and freezing cold that we had no more choice but jumping everywhere to warm us up 🙂

Celebrating New Year Jumping in a Castle

2 January, 2010 from Modra, Slovakia 1 Comment

Okey I don’t recall the name of that castle and I’m also unsure about it’s location :-/

But the visit was very interesting (and the castle caves were HUGE!). Oh, and it was so coooooold !

Jumping in Liptovský Mikuláš

29 December, 2009 from Liptovský Mikuláš, Slovakia Leave a Comment

(i love those slovak weird accents!)

From Krakow, on our way to Bratislava, we stopped by Liptovský Mikuláš area for some well deserved thermal activities. Have you ever swum in an outdoor pool while it was snowing ? Did you ever have to run outside at night (and naked…) to reach the jacuzzi while it’s -10°C degrees ? Have you ever contemplated the moon from a deliciously hot jacuzzi while everywhere outside is nothing but silence and cold ? That’s what you’ll get around Liptovský Mikuláš in december !!
