From June 14th to 22th, 15 fellow photographers from the <a href="https://www.photo-club-draveil.fr/">Photo Club of Draveil</a> and myself had the renewed opportunity to host an exhibition.</p>
<p>The name of the exhibition was “À la manière de…” (which means “In the style of…”), and we collectively chose 8 artists to inspire us to create new photos for this exhibition.</p>
<p>Following the work started for previous exhibitions, I decided to continue exploring the world of <a href="https://nicolas-hoizey.photo/galleries/misc/miniature/ho-scale/">HO-scale miniature photography</a>, where I want to show how our view of everyday objects can completely change when they are staged with small model railroad figures in HO scale (1/87th).</p>
<p>You can see the 2 new photos I created for this exhibition <a href="https://nicolas-hoizey.photo/galleries/exhibitions/2025/06-a-la-maniere-de/">in the dedicated gallery</a>.</p>

From January 18th to 26th, seven fellow photographers from the <a href="https://www.photo-club-draveil.fr/">Photo Club of Draveil</a> and myself had the renewed opportunity to participate in an exhibition. The title was “Carte blanche” (I think this is also used in English 🤔), as each photographer could chose its own preferred theme.</p>
<p>Following the work started for previous exhibitions, I decided to continue exploring the world of <strong>miniature photography</strong>, where I want to show how our view of everyday objects can completely change when they are staged with small model railroad figures in HO scale (1/87).</p>
<p>You can see the 15 new photos I created and chose to exhibit <a href="https://nicolas-hoizey.photo/galleries/exhibitions/2025/01-carte-blanche/">in the dedicated gallery</a>.</p>

      <title>Geotagging old photos with Google Maps and Street View</title>

      <content type="html"><![CDATA[
        <p>You may have noticed that I started to share some <a href="https://nicolas-hoizey.photo/galleries/travels/europe/greece/crete/">photos from Crete</a>, the beautiful (and largest) Greek island.</p>
<p>In fact, these photos come from a travel we made almost 20 years ago! Need I specify that these photos were not geotagged at all? 😅</p>
<p>The fact is I really want all photos I share to be geotagged<sup class="footnote-ref"><a href="https://nicolas-hoizey.photo/blog/2024/08/13/geotagging-old-photos-with-google-maps-and-street-view/#fn1" id="fnref1">[1]</a></sup>, so they are shown on <a href="https://nicolas-hoizey.photo/map/">the georgous map view</a>.</p>
<p>So as <a href="https://nicolas-hoizey.com/notes/2022/07/28/2/">I already did several times in the past</a>, I used my memory of the places, and I wandered through the Google Maps 3D view and Street View photos to find their location.</p>
<p>Just for <a href="https://nicolas-hoizey.photo/tags/chania/">the nice city of Chania</a>, I found 79 exact locations<sup class="footnote-ref"><a href="https://nicolas-hoizey.photo/blog/2024/08/13/geotagging-old-photos-with-google-maps-and-street-view/#fn2" id="fnref2">[2]</a></sup>, to the meter. 😍</p>

<p>It took a few hours, I admit, but it was worth spending part of my vacation time on it!</p>

        <p>French photographer <a href="http://gallery.chemineau.eu/">Yann Chemineau</a> organized a <a href="https://piaille.fr/@yanncphoto/109517110699846391">monthly photo challenge on Mastodon</a>. With 2 themes every day, you had to post one photo for each theme, or one single photo for both themes, with hashtag <code>#PhotoJanuary2023</code>.</p>
<p>Here's the list of themes, the photos I posted and comments (in French) I made for some:</p>

        <p>I've been disliking for a long time that Instagram is a closed platform, more so in the hands of Facebook.</p>
<p>I additionally now really dislike that they are <a href="https://www.newstatesman.com/science-tech/2021/07/instagram-pivot-video-tiktok-mosseri-reels-marks-end-social-media-we-know-it">doing everything to resemble TikTok</a>, by <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2021/07/02/instagram-tiktok-videos/">prioritizing video more and more, at the expense of photography</a>.</p>
<p>As a result, I'm going to stay on it for now, but only keep following people I really know and like. I will find inspiration and share my own creations in a much more enjoyable way on welcoming platforms like <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/nicolas-hoizey/">Flickr</a> and <a href="https://mamot.fr/@nhoizey">Mastodon</a> (<a href="https://pixelfed.social/p/nhoizey/904048102286458248">I stopped</a> publishing photos on <a href="https://pixelfed.social/nhoizey">Pixelfed</a> after a few years).</p>
<p>If you want to follow my photography work, I invite you to come directly to <strong>my own website</strong>, here.</p>

      <title>Exhibition in Draveil: Regards multiples</title>

From February 5th to 13th, a dozen fellow photographers from the <a href="https://www.photo-club-draveil.fr/">Photo Club of Draveil</a> and myself had the opportunity to participate in an exhibition. The title was &quot;Regards multiples&quot; (&quot;Multiple perspectives&quot; in English), as each photographer could chose its own preferred theme. The only requirement was that each of us had to exhibit a coherent photographic series, rather than a batch of independent images.</p>
<p>Attracted by model making during my childhood, I came back to it through the photographic prism, discovering by chance miniature photography, for example with Tatsuya Tanaka's <a href="https://miniature-calendar.com/">Miniature Calendar</a>.</p>
<p><img src="https://nicolas-hoizey.photo/blog/2022/02/16/exhibition-in-draveil-regards-multiples/my-photos-on-the-wall.jpg" alt="My photos on the wall" /></p>
<p>With this series, I wanted to show how our view of everyday objects can completely change when they are staged with small model railroad figures in HO scale (1/87).</p>
<p>You can see the 5 new photos I created and chose to exhibit <a href="https://nicolas-hoizey.photo/galleries/exhibitions/2022/02-regards-multiples/">in the dedicated gallery</a>.</p>

        <p>Starting today, the list of photos in the second part of the homepage are the ones I <strong>shared</strong> the most recently, instead of the ones I <strong>took</strong> the most recently.</p>
<p>It makes much more sense because I don't necessarily share them in order, and I have a lot of photos I took years ago that I still want to share on my site.</p>

Also, if you don't plan to come see the site every day (go figure! 😅), I added <a href="https://nicolas-hoizey.photo/feeds/">feeds</a> you can subscribe to in your favorite feed reader.</p>
<p>If you didn't understand this last sentence, I invite you to read <a href="https://aboutfeeds.com/">this page about feeds</a>.</p>

        <p>There are <a href="https://unsplash.com/stats">more than 250 000 contributors</a> on <a href="https://unsplash.com/">Unsplash</a>, the main Web’s source of freely-usable images.</p>

<p>Today, I learned that I'm part of the <strong>TOP 500</strong> contributors, based on downloads of my photos in August! 😲😊</p>

<p>I guess my free <a href="https://nicolas-hoizey.photo/misc/sports/">sports photography</a> was helpful to illustrate the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games (in 2021).</p>

        <p>I've been wanting to build my own photo site for years, in my own image, with a total control of the technical platform and the layout of the pages and photos.</p>
<p>I am starting this project and will put it online as soon as possible, without waiting for it to be finished, because it will never be.</p>
