Morning stripes

With the lavender and the corn ripening in the fields, the countryside is revealed in all its beauty in contrasting strips of colour.  These fields are between St Saturnin and Rustrel.


Judy painting

David took his group to the basse fontaine area of Gordes to shelter from the mistral.  Its a beautiful little spot, quite secluded and surrounded by some spectacular terraced gardens.  A professional photographer passing by took this shot of Judy painting in the sunshine. He stopped to talk to David and promised to forward him the photo.  Here it is.  Many thanks to David Schmaus and his analogue Hasselblad!
