I feel a little sad. This month’s Squares, cheerfully and positively initiated and choreographed by Becky is drawing to a close. For me, it’s been a great chance to record a whole special month of family time in Spain, and travels in France. The downside to my travels has been I’ve had less chance than I would have liked to explore everyone else’s contributions.
But we’ve reached the last day. I showed you shots of Vitré yesterday, so now it’s time to show you a few of Saint-Malo, our point of departure from France. We arrived in time to sightsee: but heavy rain, falling more-or-less horizontally because of the high wind rather put a stop to that. Here are a few shots I took during odd minutes when the rain stopped, and I scuttled out with my phone to try my luck..
Ships rely a great deal on geometry, so here’s a large and well used fishing vessel …
And here are breakwater poles, parallel-parked in the sea. Which was rough enough to worry this reluctant matelot. Inexplicably, though the night of our journey to England was turbulent, I survived intact.
I can’t leave you though, without sharing an image I snapped as we drove round a roundabout not too far from Angers. Is it geometry? Is it art? Or is it simply … a chair?
