They are the walls of the oyster huts in Ile d'Oléron.
I must go back another day and take some more photos, those huts are fantastic colours. This time I'll go in the morning when the sun is on the other side (de l'autre côté).

PINK - rose

The COLOUR ME A RAINBOW has the challenge pink and it's my PINK WALL that is the avatar. I'm so proud. But that means I have to find another photo to enter the challenge. I went to the local supermarket with my camera and....I took two very original superb photos, I am very pleased with myself. :)

I wouldn't buy (je n'acheterais pas) the glasses, I don't think the black goes very well with the colour of red wine. I wouldn't but the sandals because they're for little girls, but I think they are a great fun colour.

I won a challenge on the REDBUBBLE SITE again!! I'm so proud of myself! (Je suis fière de moi). It was in the Colour me a Rainbow group-pink.

REMEMBER THIS PHOTO? I included it nearly at the beginning of my blog.Just look at this shocking pink colour and imagine a whole wall(un mur entier) like this! Two walls in fact. It didn't do any good for the furniture shop, because it closed. Shocking for the building but lovely for the photographer.
Today I entered the Green challenge with a photo I took near my house.

This is a close-up of wheat in the field (du blé dans le champ); I don't think it will win, it's not as good as (pas aussi bon que) the pink one.

Peach flower

A little softness after all these hard angles and corners; it's a long time since I uploaded a flower, so here is a peach flower growing in my garden:

I have 6 peach trees, I hope the flowers will develop into peaches then in July I'll be able to make peach jam (confiture). Last year I made some and it was delicious; instead of writing "Peach Jam" on the label I wrote "Summer in a Jar", because that's what it looks and tastes like.

redbubble.com

In April 2009 I found, by chance on Internet, and joined the art site redbubble.com.
I love this site: there are hundreds of themed groups for all different subjects that organise challenges. I enjoy competing in the challenges and seeing other people's work. It's a site in English and most people come from America, Australia or South Africa, but there are people from all over the world.
It changed completely my photos, now I take abstract "art": blocks of colours, forms, everyday objects.
Click on 'my folio' link - en bas de page - and see my folio and look at the names of the groups I belong to.
One of the groups I belong to that I like very much is called "Wall of the world" (lien en bas de page) and is just for photos of walls! There are some fantastic unusual photos.
This is my latest wall photo. What do you think of it? :)) The title is "Bleeding wall" (Mur qui saigne".)

Or this one?
