Bonjoourrrr

This place can turn you into a little girl in an instant
'oooh it's so pretty' pout pout

weather was great even through December
shot all of these with the 12-24DX

Love nostalgic images like this, early morning sun through the Loire Valley

Grass was freakin' beautiful, i had wished i turned into a cow so i could munch on it all day. shot at 12mm

Some of these work better then others for me,
I like #2, but one of my favouites is the middle shot in #3, the stairs leading up to the girl and then the 'manor' in the background.

Wendell I chose to live in Australia. Had I not done so it would have been France. I loved my time there, as you obviously did as well. :D

Great work.... my faves are 3 and 7...

the contrast between the red coat and the white building in number 3 was v. cool.... pity it was only a small shot....

Thanks for keeping me inspired :)
