This picture has nothing special, probably not even worth publishing. But I love this particular wood, these textures, these old doors, these vivid contrasts; I think they are fashinating. I have many images of these kind, but perhaps it's time to clear my setting: be patient, it's only the externalization of an evening photo. Then pass.

I'm back from a wonderful long weekend in Provence. As usual, this region never disappoint me, great food and wine, delicious farmer's markets and dramatic drives that leads you along narrow, corkscrew mountain roads, past the valleys and bluffs of the Alpes de Haute-Provence region. Moreover, if your hotel with swimming pool awaits for you with the sound of cicadas in the background, nobody can ask for more. Here some shots from my last unforgettable experience.

...I really like to escape for some days to France with my love. And so is this year...I'm leaving for a long weekend to Provence in search of some good food, relax while wandering around beautiful perched villages with the sounds of cicadas in my hears and...hopefully a little bit of lavender. See you at the beginning of next week!

I do not have a very large garden, but every time I venture there with my macro lens, I find details and nuances that might not otherwise be noticed. Macro world is fascinating and mysterious at the same time...such as these "treasures in the garden", the new photo of the month on my website. Enjoy!
