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 ›

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 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.

I […]Read Post ›

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 ›
I glanced at it. There it is, siting on the shelf. Waiting patiently the next adventure or just waiting to be picked up. One thing for sure it won’t be at that spot for a long time and I shall use it again very soon. I’m just taking a break. There’s nothing wrong with taking […]Read Post ›
Hi guys. I would just like to share my first thoughts on using Darktable. I mentioned in one of my previous posts that I was finished with Lightroom and I was trying out this new open source software Darktable. It has been a couple of weeks and I am still learning. In some ways the interface […]Read Post ›
