High flying colours

Bordeaux, France. November 2009.

Nope, this isn't one of those cool black and white images with a few touches of colour...that would involve knowing how to use Photoshop, something I'm a wee bit too lazy to figure out. This is the result of a well-lit carousel on a particularly cloudy afternoon in Bordeaux. Fortunately, the weather didn't hamper the adventurous spirit of three Canadians, on the trek for a taste of vin in this world-famous wine region. Eventually, I will organize a post about our visit to Chateâu Pape Clément, but this afternoon I'm sitting down to finish up some work. It definitely feels like the beginning of the holiday season here, with a drop in temperature, Saturday afternoon shopping, and my December To Do list on the bulletin board. A few more presentations, two more seminars to prepare and deliver, articles to edit, and read, and a Christmas party or two, and I'll be on my way home. Two weeks from today I'll be in Paris, making one last visit to the Christmas Markets before flying back to Canada.

À bientôt!
