A very Happy New Year to you, Leslie! Yes, most appropriate, the image of the station. Even though the train has left, it's still getting up to speed. Easier said than done after a good break!
Deborah, merci - and back to you. My little choo-choo is picking up speed faster than I can keep up! I feel a bit like I'm currently running alongside! Once I hit my pace, I think it promises to be a very good year - for all of us!
i like the black and white that plays well with the rugged quality of this image.......adds that little extra emphasis.....had to google map Pierrelatte....i just the sound of the word!
donna, i just adore black and white. my favorite for photos. when i first started, most of my work was black and white and *always* for portraiture!
pierrelatte is the closest train station to my friends 'mas' (farmhouse) in grignan...another good one to google! fabulous little village from where mme. sevigne did much of her famous correspondence.

“Leslie landed in the lavender and olives of Provence in 2004...fork in hand...” so began La Fourchette in 2006. Fast-forward to this moment...with survival issues managed (every ex-pat knows what I'm talking about!), I return to the original passion that brought me to France: photography.
A quote from Wynn Bullock (20th century photographer) comes to mind as I define myself as a photographer:
"At 42, I decided to become a photographer because it offered a means of creative thought and action. I didn't rationalize this, I just felt it intuitively and followed my intuition, which I have never regretted."
Shortly after I began following my passion and traveling to France to shoot photographs, Façonnable picked them up for their US market. A card line was featured at Nordstrom and small French-themed boutiques throughout the US.
Now, in the golden wash of light that is the south of France, I continue my psychotherapy practice and passion for photography.
