It is a truly sorry thing to behold what Diesel and myself have been reduced to, our former selves were more solid somehow. And I remember having been taller than Diesel, and look there I am on the left . To be a shadow is to lead a rather uncertain existence! But then that's the reality for all in truth.

Church and Alps.
At Menton the Alps come to salute the Sea. It is very pleasing to be in both of these fine fellows company at one and the same time. Splendid, indeed.
Shades of Pastel
This hillside was such a beautiful colourful sight, I have never seen buildings look so good in mass.

French Flag Flying
Blue and red are the traditional colours of Paris, used on the city's coat of arms. Blue is identified with Saint Martin, red with Saint Denis. At the storming of the Bastille in 1789, the Paris militia wore blue and red cockades on their hats. White had long featured prominently on French flags and is described as the "ancient French colour" by Lafayette. White was added to the "revolutionary" colors of the militia cockade to "nationalise" the design, thus creating the tricolour cockade.

Levant
Such mornings make me think that most of us miss out not rising at sunrise. What a truly beautiful, rich experience. No matter what your horizon too!

The Prettiest Girl In The World
I have loved Audrey Tautou since I first saw her in the film Amelie. I hear she is currently single! I know what I will be wishing for at the well!
A City by The Sea
Up there as one of my favourite places I've been in France. Menton the old quarter taken here from around the bay.
Menton!
I finally made it to this place that I had wanted to visit since I first read about it a couple of years ago. This was taken from my seat while having lunch! Not a bad dining location.
That's Nice
Couldn't help myself from that title! Anyway that is the city of that name, with some guy getting in the way in the foreground.
Stone Art
An amazing amount of work had obviously gone into creating this beautiful floor, I found it in a park in Nice.

St. Tropez Beach
The water here was possibly the warmest I've swam in the Mediterranean. Shallow for a long way out too. Great swimming location. Massive beach.

Morning Light
Taken at Cavalaire sur Mer. Not a very nice place. Wouldn't recommend it. All we did there was eat and sleep and leave early.
Smokin!
Tiling work in Arles. An interesting place, where Van Gogh lived. Unbelievably there is no gallery of his work there!
