The streets were calling me that day. I love this time of the year. The sun is becoming less harsh and goes down earlier. I prefer going on photo walks late afternoons and with the present light, the conditions are perfect. Starting from the old city centre which I know by heart now and heading […]Read Post ›
Back on the streets of Montpellier, France. End of summer at last. I don’t really like summer and it’s mainly due to hot weather. I do like holidays… After many questions and raised eyebrows the new school year has started. Kids from the age of 11 have to wear masks in schools and masks are […]Read Post ›

Thank you again for being here and checking this out. That week in the Pyrenees was an amazing experience and a true breath of […]Read Post ›
Our last big outing was to the lake Bouillouse which is a registered natural site, known throughout France and Spain for its rugged landscape and many lakes. At an altitude of 2,000m, the mountain lake is the highest lake accessible by road and chairlift in the whole mountain range. Below is the map of our […]Read Post ›
After a very atmospheric last post the sun came back out to greet and accompany us on further travels. We did a short trip from Les Angles to another nearby ski station and village “Font Romeu” where our friends were staying. We spent an afternoon watching the local car racing show but as I wasn’t […]Read Post ›
Hi guys, I continue my visual diary about the recent trip to the Pyrenees mountains. If you’ve missed the previous posts, check Parts 1, 2 and 3. As the clouds were settling down nicely over the village, we decided to take a walk through the forest and towards the nearby lake of Balcere. The walk […]Read Post ›
After two hot days in our little ski village resort Les Angles, we were treated to a little surprise. First, we heard distant claps of thunder and the wind has picked up. The temperatures on the third day have dropped to about 17°C max and we couldn’t be happier about that! This is partially what […]Read Post ›
Continuing the visual diary on the recent trip to the Pyrenees mountain resort Les Angles. To see the first post, click here. On the second day, it was still hot. Too hot for the mountain weather. I checked the weather forecast on my iPhone and it indicated 28° Max… a slight sign. We came up […]Read Post ›
This afternoon I have finished editing the photos from the trip in the Pyrenees mountains. At first I had about 230 images and after going through them in Darktable and selecting the best ones I came to 121 photos from that trip. I’d like to share most of them in the future blog posts. I […]Read Post ›
Reporting from the Pyrénées mountains in South Western France. I’m currently on a week’s holiday at the ski resort in a beautiful village of Les Angles. I’m happy to be out of the crowded suffocating town center that is melting in 35* degrees at the moment. It’s nice and cool here in the mountains. Around […]Read Post ›
