I imagine ...

Ropes, Honfleur, originally uploaded by - di.

in reality, these ropes are a hazard but through the lens, they invited a photographic attempt ...

Art, Honfleur

And this sight simply made me smile ... an art work alone on a street next to the Saturday market.

Boats ...

the big boat and her small companion, honfleur., originally uploaded by - di.

The wee boat sitting in the reflection of the big boat appealed immensely too.

Some images from Honfleur, France

Black Bike, Honfleur, originally uploaded by - di.

For some reason, this bike appealed to my photographer's eye and voila, a pigeon flew in just in time to complete it all ...

The weekend ...

Although it was foggy and grey in Honfleur, the reflections still did their thing in the marina.

And home again ...

a beach on the French Coast, originally uploaded by - di.

1200kms of wandering, in a car driven by Gert - beach-hopping on our way back from Honfleur - a beautiful little village in France.

I love two things about France (and so much more but) ... the food (the quality and the price of it) and the fact that it is cheaper to have wine with that food than it is to buy coke or coffee.

I love the wide-open spaces once you drive away from the highways.

It was good to be there again, and it's good to be home.

Gert gave me some lessons in landscape photography and I'm so very pleased with the results. This one was taken as we walked off the beach. Something made me look back and voila, we had 2 seconds of this light.
