The Fontainebleau Forest is one of the largest forests in France, and a true paradise for rock-climbers, athletes and Sunday picnickers, only an hour from Paris.

  

To the west of the Château de Fontainebleau, this forest, which became a royal estate in the 11th century, was intended for hunting, forestry and grazing. From the 18th century the forest was progressively restored, before gaining state protection as a heritage site. Famously, the landscape painters of the Barbizon School found abundant artistic inspiration here.

 

25,000 hectares of recreational areas

This exceptional nature reserve offers a gigantic space dedicated to sports and recreational activities. You may take advantage of the numerous circuits dedicated to climbing, mountain biking, and horseback riding, plus over 300 kilometres of marked trails. The Gorges de Franchard ravine will delight both expert and novice hikers.

 

Whilst on your forest adventure, notice the rich and surprising diversity of the landscapes, topographies and flora and fauna. These woods shelter over 1,200 species of animals and plants, including oaks, European beeches, chestnut trees and birches.

 

Pleasure and leisure

Hiking along marked trails, with a horse or by bike, free or supervised [climbing]/en/climbing-session-with-globe-climber) or even dog sledding, discover a whole range of ideas for outings and outdoor activities.

Idea that the forest was a home for lost civilization

Finished up a business trip a little early the last day, so my counterpart Quality Engineer, Marianne took me down to Ocean Drive in Miami, the art deco section.

 

This is what I had always imagined all of Miami to be like. Wrong, but I did have a great time capturing photons, like this young couple strolling along, hand in hand.

 

Shortly after this shot, it started raining, so Marianne and I dropped into an outdoor Cuban café with a large umbrella to sit under while watching the rain and sucking down my first mojito. Nectar of the gods.

Have wanted to go so far.

Ter tentado ir tão longe.

Aver voluto andare cosi lontano.

Haber intentado ir tan lejos.

Can't believe I never posted this pic in color.

 

Long, long ago, I finished up a business trip a little early the last day, so my counterpart Quality Engineer, Marianne took me down to Ocean Drive in Miami, the art deco section.

 

This is what I had always imagined all of Miami to be like. Wrong, but I did have a great time capturing photons, like this young couple strolling along, hand in hand.

 

Shortly after this shot, it started raining, so Marianne and I dropped into an outdoor Cuban café with a large umbrella to sit under while watching the rain and sucking down my first mojito. Nectar of the gods.

 

I still need to get back there sometime for some night shooting.
