Post your best current shots

[Jonathan Huyer]

I still don't have much time for photography, but I got this shot early this morning with my R6 and RF 100-400, on my balcony.

Pierre, I feel your pain --- out here the mountains block my view too

Seriously though, great shot. I love the light and misty clouds. You should toss this in the weekly contest!

Sorry for the late reply Jonathan. Thanks for the nice comments. I'm definitely lucky, even if I can't go hiking in the mountains as often as I'd like to nowadays...

Work trips are coming back around. The week before last was meetings and a presentation in France and then Germany.

With photography not being the focus, there are only a few others that I think will be worth posting.

But Monday morning meetings means you have Sunday night and here are a few from a walk along the Seine.

Overall, a good trip, nice to get out again, but a bit rough on sleep. My watch did not register any sleep for 3 of the 6 nights.

Anyway, thanks for viewing...Brant

Brant, I think we we in France about the same time, but for me this was a long-postponed (Covid) trip to celebrate retirement. NO meetings!

We used Arles as a base for side trips, but it is a charming place in its own right. There was a festival in the main square to celebrate VE Day while we were there. Old vehicles and group dances with a DJ and some pros helping the people on stage.

Arles is also where some famous Van Gogh paintings happened. One cafe is still trading on that.

No way I would try a starry night from the Rhone embankment, but here is a sunny afternoon from roughly the same view as Van Gogh's "Starry Night."
