While I am on a black and white diet....

A couple of black and white conversions taken earlier on in the year in Southwell.




Left to Rot


An old Renault truck left to rot in a field. Thought it suited a gritty black and white look.

The best stretch of road...

Drove it again last night. Amazing as always. Thought this picture with a sideways Opel Ascona, shows the stretch of road between Sospel and L'Escarene in a pretty good light.


Monaco by Day

It really is a very ugly country, despite the amount of money which resides there. A beautiful setting below La Turbie and the Alpes Maritimes, but the build up of high rise apartments does nothing for the aesthetic appeal.





The Streets of Nice


Autumnal Colours

Possibly, My favourite shot of the year

Taken back in spring, probably the photo I like most from all I have taken this year. It's taken from La Dramont. Looking out towards the Ile D'Or, a small island, upon which a French eccentric build himself a castle and pronounced himself King of the Island.


B/W Turini Convertions

A few shots from the Col De Turini turned to Black and White to try and add some drama. Very harsh/bright conditions and lack of cloud in the sky made it hard to capture the imperious nature of the Forts.







Col De Turini

A few photos from Saturdays trip up the Col De Turini .
