Rock of Solutré

We have been walking on the top of the Rock of Solutré a sunday afternoon with my family. 

All shot were taken on Ilford Pan-F plus with my Rolleiflex, souped in Diafine.

The Rock of Solutré (French: Roche de Solutré), is a limestone escarpment 8 km (5.0 mi) west of Mâcon overlooking the commune of Solutré-Pouilly and an iconic site of the Saône-et-Loire, in the south of the Bourgogne in France. Protected by the French law on sites classés and currently at the heart of a Grand Site National operation, it draws its fame severally as a rare geological phenomenon of the region, as a prehistoric site of the eponymous Solutrean paleolithic culture, and for the natural environment which it summit provides, the pelouse calciole grassland of Mâcon, with its distinctive flora and fauna. Occupied by man for at least 55,000 years, it is also the cradle of the Pouilly-Fuissé wine appellation. It has attracted media coverage since the 1980s when French President François Mitterrand started to make ritual ascents of the peak once per year.

Abbey of Cluny

Last week, i had the pleasure to have my family with me for some days.

We have been visiting quickly the Abbey of Cluny which is located in the South of Burgundy. The monument are very beautiful and we regret to do not have enough time to visit the whole place. Unfortunately, we regret also the cold welcome from the receptionist.

i took some shots with my beloved Rolleiflex. Tri-x souped in Diafine. Will add more photos later.

A walk in Chaley

Last sunday, we decide to go for a walk along the Albarine River, in the Bugey valley. We took together some pictures of our balade. Those pictures are the ones from our second roll through the rolleiflex. Pan-F Plus in Diafine for 3'15 in bath A & 3'15 in bath B. Shot at ISO50.

Along the walk, we perceived a building at the end of the path.

Is there any life here ?
