Lartigue

There is a picture by Lartigue I especially like. Taken at the A.C.F Grand Prix, in 1912.
Showing energy, the joy of a man about car racing.

Another one is Guitty (Marguerite Boucard) in 1905.
A woman running along the shore looking at the sea. A bit blurry, enhancing the movement.
Nostalgic because of the sea but not dreamy. The curiosity of the woman, she seems like looking precisely at something.
Enjoying being at the sea. Dynamic.

A dreamy picture is 'Bibi in Marseille, 1928'.
A woman having one hand at one of her ear, she looks like listening to something or just immersed in her thoughts. Two big ships behind her.

Kon-Tiki Museum

I visited the Kon-Tiki Museum. There was a ship there, the Kon-Tiki ship and pictures with the members of the crew. I could not believe that was a ship to go on the ocean with. But Thor Heyerdahl had the idea that the aboriginal population from South America did manage to go in the Pacific Islands, by using such a ship. Until then, it was believed that only people from Asia could have reached the Pacific Islands.
  I liked it. A man with an idea and nobody believes him. He proved it against all odds.
