Greetings From France

Andre

So what can you photograph if it rains cats and dogs, in South France

The gutter



But then the air is clearing



The Arize is a lot wilder than usual as it enters the cave of Mas d'Azil



obviously also at the exit.

Andre

We also passed the cross way with 12 little chapels that I used as Landmark

And then the sun sets

Gad

Wow, just as bolted blood in one's heart once it sense the anguish of love... Someone please refraiz it.

As usual Andre, great pix :)

lisab

As always, it looks very nice .

Andre

Thanks, Drizzle and Lisa. Some more then

Yesterday we visited the land of the ntenae people, Andorra. But they all looked like normal, somehow. But -not unexpectedly- a lot of snow:



Enroute, you pass Ax Les Thermes with its hot spring. It's still a bit autumn there:



Dawn, this morning:



and eventually as the sun rises, the valley gets the first sun rays:

Andy Resnick

Jealous = me.

dlgoff

Excellent photos Andre. I wish I were there. Thanks for sharing.

turbo

Thanks, Andre. You have a great eye. It's nice to have the location and environment, but it's essential to "see" the best shots and take them.

Andre

Thanks, Don and Turbo, still more in the pipeline to come.

Evo

Absolutely beautiful Andre!! Thanks for sharing!!!

edward

+me me me

Borek

Great place, great pictures.

Andre

Thanks, Evo, Edward, Borek

And now, today I made the pic finally, which I had in mind when I bought this camera, a flying dragonfly. One of the most challenging ever.

I have seen more flying dragon flies and certainly in better quality, but I never have seen anything like this before:



See what I mean?

Borek

It looks so helicopterish...

turbo

Igor Sikorsky would be proud!

Andre

yes sure, but there is still something very odd, that I was completely unaware of.

Maybe it helps to imagine a 3D picture -using the fish in the pond-, when I show the whole uncropped frame (15% size). Also, I shot horizontal tilting down maybe some 10-20 degrees



What is so odd?
