I like In this cruel and absurd times
- J'avais envie d'écrire sur l'arrogance des crétins. L'arrogance des crétins et la simplicité des immenses. Fascinant. - Fais-le ! Il faut que tu le fasses ! - Je n'y arrive pas. Je ne suis pas Godard. Hélas. • "Je suis fier quand je me compare, humble...
I like Imagine all this timeless beauty
I stopped watching TV in 1996. So many things to be seen. Imagine all this useless beauty... Le désir d'être inutile. Il y a sûrement quelqu'un pour qui ça compte. All this timeless beauty... (Et cette image ? Qu'est-ce-que c'est ? Hein ? Alors ? Dis...

G like Gaffer at all times
I'm a gaffer at all times. The gaffer is a photographer's best friend. The gaffer can be torn apart with a simple, neat, precise gesture. A decisive, smart tap, and it's done. But also the gaffer can fix everything, it can resist to all kinds of pressure....
F like Floating time
Je ne devais pas y être. Sans un allié providentiel et généreux, je l'aurais encore raté. Peut-être qu'il était temps, peut-être que parfois ça suffit de rater les êtres et les instants. Peut-être qu'il y avait urgence, finalement. Peut-être que l'allié...
F like Fragile since the very first time
- Is it all right if I look at you straight in the eyes ? - Careful, I don't know if I told you before but I'm... - You, me, everybody is... - Yes, but since the very first time I'm ... - Shhhht... Trust me. Close your eyes. Then I will carefully look...
F like Fake or true, just another time
It entirely depends on how you look at things. Watching a moonset over a golden ocean. Heartbreaking pale blue eye. •
F like Filtering time with serendipity
- Il faut choisir. Choisir les morceaux de temps. Choisir les actions à poser. - Et comment tu choisis ? - Parfois je ne choisis pas. Ou je choisis de faire confiance au hasard. La chambre 22, moon street... - Pourquoi ? - Je ne sais pas... Pour vérifier,...
E like Exception out of time
"I often feel that people come to me to be photographed as they would go to a doctor or a fortune teller -to find out how they are-. So they’re dependent on me. I have to engage them. Otherwise there’s nothing to photograph. The concentration has to come...
D like Distance is a matter of time
Some people talk about "reasonable distance". Nonsense. Distance exists, or not. Full stop. And that existence, if any, is engraved on the scale of time. There's no point in hiding behind reason. Distance is when it's time to be more gentle than ever...

"The reality of fiction"... Stories & story time. The reality-fiction-thing. Things. & Nothings. • • " Mieux vaut n'penser à rien Que n'pas penser du tout Rien c'est déjà Rien c'est déjà beaucoup On se souvient de rien Et puisqu'on oublie tout Rien c'est...
B like Be yourself at any time
"Ne vivez pour l'instant que vos questions. Peut-être, simplement en les vivant, finirez-vous par entrer insensiblement, un jour, dans les réponses." Lettres à un jeune poète (1929) R.M. Rilke © A Deniau, 1997. & © A Deniau, 2011. •
B like Be around all the time
Sometimes 24 hours contain more than 24 days. London will always be London, special in more than 24 ways. A place for ancient and new friends. A place with this sudden fragile thought : "I think I'm happy". Serendipity. Please don't go. I have to go....

Y like "Your doll has gone...", reading time
This is a true story, by the way. This happened during the last year of Kafka's life. “Every afternoon, Kafka goes for a walk in the park. More often than not, Dora goes with him. One day, they run into a little girl in tears, sobbing her heart out. Kafka...
X like Xception is the rule sometimes
© A Deniau, Kenya 1998. Sometimes. Exception is the rule. Not doing what was expected. Stopping by. Forgetting about work and achievements and supposed important things, just turning the other way around. Enjoying the presence of a friend. La vie passe....
