Perpignan Now #3


Day Two Update: 1a.m, Perignan , France...
Having just returned from the Bar De La Poste, The memories are flooding back fast. The characters; the pioneers and the figures that can make a photographers dream come true. And then these wolves. The wolves that surround them...

That part of this war is still raging...


Strangely many people seem to be here for the same reasons we are, hunting, or rather searching, albeit each for their individual reasons...


We met a young photographer who was told Perpignan can be a lonely place if you don't know what your here for. You have to find your targets, research them and hunt them down.... She mentions her need for a mentor, she mentions a name, a prominent agency director but insists that they are not ready yet. What worries us is that she was referring to the director rather then herself...


We leave early as for some reason we don't feel part of the gang, the pack, almost like right now we don't have the right accreditation. But I'm sure the morning, and a new day, will change all that...


We digress, but what we can report is that there is definitely still a hunger here, and a thirst...
A Thirst of the kind that I don't believe the Bar De La Poste can ever quench...

To Be Continued...
