Folks, I have much gear and some of the most powerful Full Frame cameras built in the world, yet I find I keep grabbing my tiny Rx100 mIII, I just love it.

Haven't managed very much recently.

However,

A while back I spent a couple of days in the lovely little village of La Brigue, in the Alpes-Maritimes.

Cheers,

Gandolfi.

Long time; no 'see', Gandolfi...! Good to see that you're putting the MkIII to good use.

There's something nicely 'HC-B' about the first of these shots...

Thanks, Tim.

Life is really just one decisive moment after another, don't you think

Some more snaps at La Brigue.

I walked east out of La Brigue along the footpath through the trees, ending at a modest building above the stream.
It felt like the middle of nowhere....

...but at the end of the fifteenth century, about the time Columbus sailed across the pond, it had been a hive of activity.

Jean Baleison and Jean Canavesio were busy covering all the walls and ceiling with frescoes depicting the the Passion of Christ and the Last Judgement.

It's like the Sistine Chapel in the Alps!

This is Menton old town. Rather lovely!!
I fiddled about with ColEfex then used a filter in P/shop Elements6 called 'poster edges' which gives a slightly thicker and more defined edge to things.
Useful occasionally.

Lovely old cemetery sits atop the old town of Menton.

I called in at the Fox and Badger for re-fuelling.
I took six snaps and threw one away, then I cycled home.
Slightly straightened soocs.
