Roscoff is a commune in the Finistère département of Brittany in northwestern France.
Roscoff is renowned for its picturesque architecture, labelled petite cité de caractère de Bretagne (small town of character) since 2009. Roscoff is also a traditional departure point for Onion Johnnies.
After lobbying by local economic leaders headed by Alexis Gourvennec, the French government agreed in 1968 to provide a deep-water port at Roscoff. Existing ferry operators were reluctant to take on the relatively long Plymouth–Roscoff crossing so Gourvennec and colleagues founded Brittany Ferries. Since the early 1970s Roscoff has been developed as a ferry port for the transport of Breton agricultural produce and for motor tourism. Brittany Ferries link Roscoff with both Ireland and the United Kingdom.
Owing to the richness of iodine in the surrounding waters and the mild climate maintained by a sea current that varies only between 8 and 18 °C, Roscoff is also a centre of post-cure, which gave rise to the concept of thalassotherapy in the latter half of the 19th century. A French doctor, Louis-Eugène Bagot, opened the Institut Marin in Roscoff in 1899, the first centre for thalassotherapy in Europe. Since then many important centres of thalassotherapy such as the Institut de Rockroum (originally Institut marin), the clinic Kerléna and a heliomarin hospital founded in 1900, the Perharidy Centre, can be found by the sea at Roscoff.
The nearby Île de Batz, called Enez Vaz in Breton, is a small island that can be reached by launch from the harbour.

Annecy, Haute-Savoie, Auvernia-Ródano-Alpes, France.
Annecy es una comuna francesa situada en el departamento de Alta Saboya, de la región de Auvernia-Ródano-Alpes.
Le vieil Annecy, (que no debe confundirse con Annecy-le-Vieux, otra ciudad fronteriza), fue un asentamiento de la época de los romanos. Annecy fue la corte de los condes de Ginebra o Genevois del siglo X. Pasó a los condes de Saboya en 1401. En 1444, se convirtió en la capital regional de las provincias de Genevois, Faucigny y Beaufortain. Con el avance del calvinismo, Annecy se convirtió en un centro para la Contrarreforma, siendo transferido el antiguo Obispado de Ginebra a él en 1535. Francisco de Sales nació en Sales en 1567 y sirvió como obispo de Annecy desde 1602 hasta 1622; sus reliquias se conservan en la catedral.
Durante la Revolución Francesa, la región de Saboya fue conquistada por Francia. Annecy se unió al departamento de Mont Blanc, cuya capital era Chambéry. La diócesis católica fue suprimida en 1801. Después de la restauración borbónica en 1815, Annecy fue devuelta al Rey de Cerdeña y la diócesis católica restaurada en 1822. Cuando Saboya fue anexionada a Francia en 1860 con el Tratado de Turín, se convirtió en la capital del nuevo departamento de Alta Saboya.
Como nueva comuna fue creada el 1 de enero de 2017, en aplicación de una resolución del prefecto de Alta Saboya de 14 de julio de 20163 con la unión de las comunas de Annecy, Annecy-le-Vieux, Cran-Gevrier, Meythet, Pringy y Seynod, pasando a estar el ayuntamiento en la antigua comuna de Annecy.
Annecy is a French commune located in the department of Haute-Savoie, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region.
Le vieil Annecy, (not to be confused with Annecy-le-Vieux, another border town), was a settlement from Roman times. Annecy was the court of the counts of Geneva or Genevois of the 10th century. It passed to the counts of Savoy in 1401. In 1444, it became the regional capital of the provinces of Genevois, Faucigny and Beaufortain. With the advance of Calvinism, Annecy became a center for the Counter-Reformation, the former Bishopric of Geneva being transferred to it in 1535. Francis de Sales was born at Sales in 1567 and served as Bishop of Annecy from 1602 to 1622; his relics are kept in the cathedral.
During the French Revolution, the Savoy region was conquered by France. Annecy joined the Mont Blanc department, whose capital was Chambéry. The Catholic diocese was suppressed in 1801. After the Bourbon restoration in 1815, Annecy was returned to the King of Sardinia and the Catholic diocese restored in 1822. When Savoy was annexed to France in 1860 with the Treaty of Turin, it became the capital. of the new department of Haute-Savoie.
As a new commune, it was created on January 1, 2017, pursuant to a resolution of the prefect of Haute-Savoie of July 14, 20163 with the union of the communes of Annecy, Annecy-le-Vieux, Cran-Gevrier, Meythet, Pringy and Seynod, becoming the town hall in the former commune of Annecy.

Amélie-les-Bains-Palalda, Vallespir, Occitanie, France.
Amélie-les-Bains-Palalda es una localidad y comuna francesa situada en el departamento de Pirineos Orientales y la región de Occitania, en la comarca del Vallespir. Tenía 3.683 habitantes en 2007.
Administrativamente, pertenece al distrito de Céret, al cantón de Arles-sur-Tech y a la Communauté de communes du Haut Vallespir.
La comuna se localiza en el valle del Tech, en el corazón del Vallespir, al oeste de Céret. Puede accederse a ella por la carretera departamental 115. Antes de ser desmantelada en el siglo XX, también contaba con servicios de ferrocarril. Está prevista una vía verde que siga el recorrido de la antigua vía férrea (hasta Arles-sur-Tech).
En realidad, Amélie-les-Bains-Palalda se compone de tres municipios antaño separados: Amélie, Palalda (anexado en 1942) y Montalba (anexado en 1962). Por ello, el paisaje comunal es bastante variado. La mayoría de la población se concentra a orillas del Tech. Cabe destacar la formación geológica de las las gargantas del Mondony.
Amélie-les-Bains-Palalda is a French commune and town located in the Pyrénées-Orientales department and the Occitania region, in the Vallespir region. It had 3,683 inhabitants in 2007.
Administratively, it belongs to the Céret district, the canton of Arles-sur-Tech and the Communauté de communes du Haut Vallespir.
The commune is located in the Tech Valley, in the heart of the Vallespir, west of Céret. It can be accessed by departmental highway 115. Before being dismantled in the 20th century, it also had railway services. A greenway is planned to follow the route of the old railway (up to Arles-sur-Tech).
In reality, Amélie-les-Bains-Palalda is made up of three once separate municipalities: Amélie, Palalda (annexed in 1942) and Montalba (annexed in 1962). For this reason, the communal landscape is quite varied. Most of the population is concentrated on the banks of the Tech. It is worth noting the geological formation of the Mondony gorges.
Schizophyllum commune has the common name Splitgill, and is from the family Schizophyllaceae.
Its' stalkless fruiting bodies are fan-shaped or of irregular shape, up to 4cm wide, and attached to wood in a similar fashion to leathery shelf fungi. The upper surface is dry, covered in short dense hairs, and can be white, beige, light tan or grey. The caps are soft and pliant, but tough.
The fertile under-surface is composed of beige gill-like 'folds' that are split lengthwise, hense the common name of Splitgill. The spore print is white.
Schizophyllum commune grows in scattered groups or massed overlapping tiers on both deciduous and coniferous dead wood. It is found predominantly from autumn to spring, and is probably the most common mushroom in the world, being well known on every continent except the Antarctica, where there is no wood for it to grow on!
It is important to note that this fungus should not be smelled, as it is possible that Splitgill spores may be pathogenic and cause the disease basidioneuromycosis.

I've recently fallen in love with ilford delta with it's fine grain and incredible shadow detail.
back for a bit to some images from Banff, last summer...
this was at the end of Parker Ridge trail, a short and stiff hike that starts from the Icefields parkway and provides amazing bang for the buck. After ascending the slopes you are treated to the vast, windy expanses of Parker ridge with the Saskatchewan glacier looming behind. Here, in the distance you can see a group of hikers.. they seemed close enough to touch the clouds

La crypte sous le monument.
Le mémorial du Mardasson (communément appelé le Mardasson) est un monument élevé sur une colline qui surplombait la vallée. Au pied de celle-ci existait une petite mare située sur le lieu-dit "Asson", d'où l'origine du nom de ce monument, le Mardasson, au dessus de la mare d'Asson. Il est situé à quelque deux kilomètres au nord-est de Bastogne, dans la province de Luxembourg (Région wallonne de Belgique). Inauguré en 1950, il témoigne de la reconnaissance de la population belge aux soldats américains qui, durant l'hiver 1944-1945, donnèrent leur vie lors de la bataille des Ardennes pour contrer la dernière offensive allemande de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Construit, sur les plans de l'architecte Georges Dedoyard, en forme d’étoile, signe distinctif des troupes alliées durant la campagne de libération (évocation du drapeau américain), sur une élévation naturelle en bordure de la rivière Wiltz, le monument porte l’inscription latine « populus belgicus memor liberatoribus americanis ». Au fronton du monument, à l’extérieur et à l’intérieur, se trouvent inscrits les noms de tous les états membres des États-Unis d'Amérique, y compris ceux (Alaska, Hawaii) qui entrèrent dans l’union après la guerre.
The Mardasson Memorial (commonly known as the Mardasson) is a high monument on a hill overlooking the valley. At the foot of it there was a small pond located on the place called "Asson", hence the origin of the name of this monument, the Mardasson, above the pool of Asson. It is located about two kilometers north-east of Bastogne, in the province of Luxembourg (Walloon Region of Belgium). Inaugurated in 1950, it shows the recognition of the Belgian population to the American soldiers who, during the winter of 1944-1945, gave their lives during the battle of the Ardennes to counter the last German offensive of the Second World War. Built, on the plans of the architect Georges Dedoyard, in the form of a star, a distinctive sign of the Allied troops during the liberation campaign (evocation of the American flag), on a natural elevation along the Wiltz River, the monument bears the Latin inscription "populus belgicus memor liberatoribus americanis". On the front of the monument, outside and inside, are inscribed the names of all member states of the United States of America, including those (Alaska, Hawaii) that entered the union after the war. .

Communing with nature can take many forms. This time it involved chatting with a moth I found on an elephant ear. It was a good listener.

Honfleur is a commune in the Calvados department in Normandy en.normandie-tourisme.fr/normandy-tourism-109-2.html in northwestern France. It is located on the southern bank of the estuary of the Seine across from le Havre and very close to the exit of the Pont de Normandie. Its inhabitants are called Honfleurais. It is especially known for its old, beautiful picturesque port, characterized by its houses with slate-covered frontages, painted many times by artists, including in particular Gustave Courbet, Eugène Boudin, Claude Monet and Johan Jongkind, forming the école de Honfleur (Honfleur school) which contributed to the appearance of the Impressionist movement. The Sainte-Catherine church, which has a bell tower separate from the principal building, is the largest church made out of wood in France. The first written record of Honfleur is a reference by Richard III, Duke of Normandy, in 1027. By the middle of the 12th century, the city represented a significant transit point for goods from Rouen to England. Located on the estuary of one of the principal rivers of France with a safe harbour and relatively rich hinterland, Honfleur profited from its strategic position from the start of the Hundred Years' War. The town's defences were strengthened by Charles V in order to protect the estuary of the Seine from attacks from the English. This was supported by the nearby port of Harfleur. However, Honfleur was taken and occupied by the English in 1357 and from 1419 to 1450. When under French control, raiding parties often set out from the port to ransack the English coasts, including partially destroying the town of Sandwich, in Kent, England, in the 1450s. At the end of the Hundred Years' War, Honfleur benefited from the boom in maritime trade until the end of the 18th century. Trade was disturbed during the wars of religion in the 16th century. The port saw the departure of a number of explorers, in particular in 1503 of Binot Paulmierde Gonneville to the coasts of Brazil. In 1506, local man Jean Denis departed for Newfoundland island and the mouth of the Saint Lawrence. An expedition in 1608, organised by Samuel de Champlain, founded the city of Quebec in modern day Canada. After 1608, Honfleur thrived on trade with Canada, the West Indies, the African coasts and the Azores. As a result, the town became one of the five principal ports for the slave trade in France. During this time the rapid growth of the town saw the demolition of its fortifications on the orders of Colbert. The wars of the French revolution and the First Empire, and in particular the continental blockade, caused the ruin of Honfleur. It only partially recovered during the 19th century with the trading of wood from northern Europe. Trade was however limited by the silting up of the entrance to the port and development of the modern port at Le Havre. The port however still functions today. On August 25, 1944, Honfleur was liberated together by the British army - 19th Platoon of the 12th Devon's, 6th Air Landing Brigade, the Belgian army (Brigade Piron) on 25 August 1944.[1] and the Canadian army without any combat. en.normandie-tourisme.fr/articles/honfleur-278-2.html
