An interesting shot I took in Albi, France. I wonder if anyone can identify what it is?

One of the "Poggles" as my mum and sister like to call the farm guinea pigs.

This old boy is well past his eat-by-date by about 6 years, still hobbling along majestically.

Didn't want to go out today, despite the sunshine the wind's still fairly chilly.

20 images stacked after export from Lr.

Re-started an old project from 2022 this morning: Doorknobs of Toulouse.

A pretty mundane thing, but I'm curious about the history behind them, and if it's only here or around the whole of France.

Jean Calas and Antoine de Saint Exupery, just two of many historical individuals in Toulouse's history.

Did some free photos for a local band during a private concert.
Don't do like me and use electronic shutter, I switched halway through and the results hurt.

Here's the - really good - band, Sóll: www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tyc...

www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oxff... Just a short video that I shot to play around with CLog3 and LUTs, and tonteynout a new fluid head.
I'm currently self-teaching to do a couple of projects around Toulouse.

Canon R6, EF 70-200mm f/4 IS II, Sennheiser MKE-600 mic

Both of my decade-old cheapo Yongnuo flashes bit the dust at the same time. I've played around with an LED panel I use to light my mug for online training sessions...It's definitely not portable.

So, any suggestions (Canon R6 body), perhaps Godox V1?

Lips, serial finger-biter.

He's supposed to be the farm's mouser. He's more of an expert at tripping up humans walking down stairs.

The three stooges.

The herd winters in an open hangar, with a 24/7 access to outside. They come in like clockwork, morning and evening, for their hay. They're all locked in place during feeding time to avoid undefendable attacks between the cattle.

Received a new tripod (Manfrotto Befree GTX Pro Carbon) yesterday, so I took it out for a spin.

Chips, the robin-killing "farm" cat at my parents'. He's still kind of cute though.

I took time to make some food today.

A take on fish n' chips and a chocolate chantilly mousse on a breton style biscuit.

All home made from scratch.

Rue d'Alsace-Lorraine, Toulouse, France,

This is the "new" high street of Toulouse, formerly the merchant street was Rue Saint Rome. There is a stark contrast between the two; open space vs narrow street, smooth pavestones vs cobbled street.

A less political photo, multi-centennial bricks in the Saint Sernin Basilica, Toulouse, France.

Toulouse is known as the "Pink City" after its distinct colour palette. When flying into Blagnac airport, you get a view of the distinct red colour.
