The Persistence of Memory IRL.

I see your squirrel in three brushstrokes, and I raise you a multi-million dollar painting of a woman made with 4 lines.

This is taken in the north of China where the original part of the wall has been slowly eaten away by nature. Now you can still walk along the top, but you walk under trees and through bushes on a rugged trail…

Martial Arts Practice, India
Photo: Nicolas Chorier

Kalaripayatu fighters practicing on a beach in North Kerala. Kalaripayatu is one of the most ancient martial arts, supposedly more ancient than Kung Fu. This photo was taken with no special setup, just during a regular practicing session. I was using a kite to lift the camera, in order to remain steady above the subject for more than an hour, without disturbing.
