Avignon

This summer, we went to Avignon for spending two weeks at the famous acting and play festival. Sometimes, it was in a rush but luckily, we planned spare days to visit the surroundings as well...

PS: if wondered for the first picture, it was taken in the shadow of an arc.

Royal Greenhouse of Brussels

Well, long time no see. I felt like coming back to publish more pictures. Enjoy. The pictures below are from April at our visit to the Royal Greenhouse, which is open only 3 weeks a year.

Well, it's been a long time no light ^^ This is again the light in our bedroom. It is made of bamboo...

Engine [day 84]

You have guessed this is a close up of a plane engine. This just shows the complexity of this "thing". I tried to frame it in a manner that pleases my eyes. Hope I did it well ^^ Enjoy.

Modern waves [day 83]

Really, we do need to go back to this Science Museum and take more pictures ^^ My other half certainly do want it. Or is it because of the amazing shopping facilities there in London? Well, I took this picture because the view and its colour just stunned us. It was from an upper platform and looking at the lower level of the museum. I quite like it.

Fan? [day 82]

That was again in the Science Museum. There you can approach quite a few small aircraft parts. I do like all those metal pieces. Here, I tried to get the nice metal colour with the light coming from the windows. I avoided putting anything in central position to have a less boring picture. Hope you enjoy.
