#62: Golf ball on a spaceship?

Where is the golf ball? Is it a bird? Is it a spaceship? What is it? WHAT IS IT?

It's just some light on the sidewalk in Deauville. Here's the same photo, with more insane exposure.

Get it now? Huh? There's even a car parked over there. Cool stuff.

#61: Golf balls and seaweed

At the beach of Deauville again. In July I had taken many golf ball photos in that area. I haven't published them all yet. I will though.

#60: Golf balls in front of huge buildings

At La Defense again. Between the golf balls and the buildings there is a pool with water inside, but it's not for swimming. Don't swim in there.

#59: Lonely golf ball on top

The train station of Courbevoie is a cool spot from which you can find yourself in Paris in 10 minutes. And it's got a lot to capture with the camera.

#58: Golf balls enjoying the view

La Defense and the whole area has tons of places for some cool photos. Here are two golf balls at one of these places.

#56: Golf balls out for a walk

From the Sunday walk at La Defense. Golf balls look very cool on the ground like this. I should take more photos in this style.

#55: Juggling golf balls (video)

I spent a good part of the summer trying to learn how to juggle golf balls. It's not easy, I assure you. They are more bouncy than the bean bags that are used normally for juggling.

#54: Golf balls on blue tiles

La Defense has some water pools. Today I put the golf balls at the edge and took some photos. There was some very nice sunlight too.

#53: Dangerous golf ball balancing

The bridge between Deauville and Trouville is a nice place for photos. I was anxious about the balancing of the golf ball, but eventually all went smoothly.

#51: Golf ball on the street

Sunday morning, walking in Courbevoie. The streets were empty, it was a chance for a cool photo. And here it goes, as quickly as possible. At the end of the street, there's the green light.

#50: Golf balls in a house yard in Deauville

We were walking on the street in Deauville and we saw a house and I decided that I want to take a photo of the golf balls there. We didn't go inside, of course. I just put them on the edge of the wall and I took a few shots. No big deal. No harm done.

#49: Everything OK with your golf balls?


The title is the actual line from the waiter at the restaurant in Trouville. I guess that these guys have seen it all and it looks natural to them when someone adds some golf balls in the food in order to take a photo.

#48: Golf ball with a sea snail

There is some extra juice from the snail. It was surprisingly tasty. Trouville has many cool restaurants and I would like to try everything there, but I can't stop having mussels every time we go there.

Here you go again, with some extra view from the street.

#47: Golf ball in the evening in Courbevoie

This is a ball on a bench. For some time I couldn't focus on it.

But eventually, I did. I like it when I manage to make the golf balls balance like this.

#46: Golf balls at La Defense again

La Defense, on the NW of Paris, is an interesting area, of which you can see nothing in this picture, because I'm focusing on the golf balls.

Similar photo, different focus. Classic stuff.

#44: Golf balls at La Defense station

Contrary to the photo of the previous post, in this case I had to problem to keep the golf balls steady. This is the metro-RER-train-tram station of La Defense.

This is the same photo, with a different focus, as I like to do from time to time.

And here's a super extra bonus, the golf balls shot from a different angle. Nice, right? I know, no need to praise me.

#43: Balancing golf balls

It was tough. I had to fight the slippery metal cylinder and the strong winds of La Defense. But the golf balls didn't disappoint me. Here they are, balancing proudly.

#42: Golf balls on a wall

Serious golf balls. It's all dark behind them. They look determined.

Here they are again. On a small wall, at a park, in Deauville. I take many photos every time I find myself there. Only that this was the first time with the golf balls.

#41: Golf ball between Deauville and Trouville

Is it lonely? Is it far from the world? Is it thinking of the future? How it was created as a golf ball and ended up a photo model? We'll never know.

We change the focus and we see that we are between Trouville and Deauville, in Normandie. Well, it was not having deep thoughts after all. It was just enjoying the scenery.

#40: Lonely golf ball on the beach

We are celebrating 40 golf ball posts with a single close up of a ball, all alone on the sand of the beach of Deauville, under the cloudy summer sky. I still don't know what got into me and I started carrying them with me all the time, trying to steal some seconds in order to get a quick shot. But I don't really care. They look very cool and I intend to continue doing this.

#39: Spooning golf balls again

OK, that night I had some extra time on my night shift. It doesn't happen often, I can assure you. By the way, I think that something's wrong with this photo here.

Ah, that's better. Golf balls and spoons in a better alignment.

#38: Golf ball on the rocks

The reception at The Loft Hostel has an ice machine too. The cocktail Golf Ball on the Rocks was not a great success, by the way. I don't know why.

#37: Reception poke golf ball

Day 152: Still no Pokemon around. Apparently the high ratings of The Loft Hostel were not given for its great prospects of Pokemon hunting. At least I get to keep the poke golf balls for me. All I need to do is find another way to use them. Maybe for photo shoots.

#36: Golf balls caught in a chair

At The Loft Hostel, there are two new chairs at the reception. If I wasn't quite busy during my shifts, I would love sitting on them, they're too comfortable. Anyway, at least I used them for this photo with the golf balls.

#35: Blue golf balls

It's been a long time since I wanted to do something like this. Only that I was thinking about painting the balls blue. But since there's the bar at The Loft Hostel, with these cool LED lights and the wine glasses, I took advantage of them. And I love the outcome.

Besides some cropping and the addition of the logo, these photos are unedited. This is what the right light can do for you. I really can't get enough looking at them.

#34: Spooning golf balls

Night shift at The Loft Hostel and experimentation with the camera and the golf balls. This time with spoons.

#33: Golf ball on the train to Courbevoie

So, the other day, instead of taking the metro to return home from the hostel, I went a different way, with the bus and the train. It's very cool actually. You get to see parts of Paris. Anyway, in accordance to what's happening in my head lately, I took a golf ball, put it by the window and took a photo of it.

#32: Poke golf ball at the reception of The Loft Hostel

OK, I admit it. I became a night receptionist because I wanted to look for those rare nocturnal pokemons, that can be found, well, during the night. So far I haven't been lucky, but my poke golf balls are always with me.
