During the holidays you will be able to let yourself go, with your passion or your favorite occupation: photography. In doing so, your eyes on the meter, your camera strapped around your neck, digital or film, you’re ready to immortalize that precious instant…, that cloud so… that scene so… But you’ll also have the opportunity to see exhibitions, photo festivals, there are enough in the French territory. “Réponses Photo”, “Images”, “De L’Air”, “L’Oeil”, are just a few of the magazines that will help you to choose summer exhibitions, to inform you on the latest technology news, to help you to avoid missing the right frame… finally, really good reading. De L’Air: "Most of this issue is devoted to the exhibition that begun on June 29th at the MEP, offering the “Generation of l’Air”. A selection of 62 photographs published in the magazine since its creation in 2000."

"Featuring a dossier on image copyright, 20 years of Tendance Floue, analysis of their contact sheets. In movement with Bernard Plossu, Portfolio by Mitch Epstein…" Réponses Photo, Special issue Nº12.

"The aim of the magazine is not only photography, but much more, photography has for a long time been considered as Art by this magazine and its point of view is always original." L’OEIL

"Two portfolios, Brassaï in color and Maia Flore/VU, the air girl – As always in this magazine, lots of practical advice and tests (the 20 best zooms, selection of the best digital cameras of the month …)." Réponses PHOTO, July 2011.
After 8 weeks of european press review, I’m taking a vacation. Great job. For you too, it’s holiday time. Don’t forget to read and buy magazines, it’s a difficult time for them, and don’t forget to send us your vacation pictures. I will be back at the end of August, with more reviews from Italy, Spain, Holland, Switzerland, Bonnes vacances.
