Le vin de Beaune en Bourgogne, nice area of France, I went cycling there once. Nice selection although pinot noir is my favorite. I found on the Internet that you can buy a bottle of 1976 for only 44 euros! That seem cheap for 43 years old wine!

While you and Roz are finishing off the wine, I'll just admire the bottles. ;-)

Baguette on its way to becoming a voodoo doll. Never seen one shaped like this.

A little noisy but doesn't detract for me. Terrific POV and composition.

lol .. a much needed break ..
looks like you've popped the cork on these .. !! ..
i'm not much of a drinker .. just at birthdays and celebrations etc .. but the middle one .. i'll help you finish it off .. just a glass for me tho .. ;)
also noticed that your wines are all around the same age as katee .. if these were unopened they would probably be improving with age .. not so katee ..

thankyou re the warning of the crustaceans .. xx

This image of the six is most engaging and heartbreaking, underscored by the fact that I eat fish myself. The swordfish, who's half chopped away and sold for dinner, seems alive and surprised at what has become of him or her. It's a silent tragedy that passes for normal, even despite a lifetime of preying on a multitude of smaller fish. The purveyor is well-posed engaged in the opposite direction. The combination of blues and pinks works well.

its great that the photos you took just for yourself.. have made their way out into the wide world .. via the internet and our great online community here in dpc . ..
i mentioned that we have a supermarket that sells baguettes .. and they are okish .. when you bake them a bit ..
we also have a local bakery .. probably australia wide .. called baker's delight .. their fair is better than coles .. but still would be no-where as tasty as from a french bakery ..
looking at this one i can almost smell that lovely fresh baked bread smell .. divine . !! .. ;)

i think i'd get quite fat if i hung out with you for any length of time .. !! ..
as these look irresistible .. and i LOVE olives ..
we have a local supermarket ... called Coles .. they have baguettes with olives .. but they would certainly pale in comparison to the ones you have on display here .. like chalk and cheese .. the coles ones would be the chalk .. ;)

ps .. whatever you've done to this with the grain . .. really works ..
i particularly like how you are focusing on grain and have combined it in your editing .. would that have been intentional .. ?? .. ;)
