Smoke on the Water

Are we dating ourselves? It's actually mist on the water, but that sounds a bit finger in the ear folk music-y.

Anyway, I digress..........

This is the river Claise at the start of autumn, just upstream from the Roman bridge.When we go for a wander around town, it tends to be in the evening. This time of year we quite often have a walk between dinner and dessert, thus making more room for dessert which IMHO is a good thing.

Sometimes, however, we deviate from the normal (stop sniggering at the back there) and go for a walk before we have worn ourselves out which gives us a whole different view of the town. Not only are we seeing it in a new light (literally) but with fresh, untired eyes. This is the water on the plan d'eau at 9 in the morning.

As is this photo. Once upon a time I couldn't do reflection, but I think I am getting the hang of it.
