Sète, a largish port on the coast of Languedoc in France, is squeezed between the Mediterranean sea and the "Etang de Tau", a huge inland expanse of sea water. The town is crisscrossed by canals that link the sea port to the Etang de Tau. One tradition is boat josting : each neighbourhood sponsors a boat with ten rowers, a pilot and a spear holder. As two boats row forcefully toward one another, the aim is to take down the opponent's spear holder.
Den lilla staden Sete Cidades (700 invånare) ligger precis intill de så kallade tvillingsjöarna. Det här är en dricksfontän.

Note to self: When taking photos for a panorama, a set that covers a rectangle produces the best results. Keeping the exposure constant also helps.
Photographed in a narrow side street in the town of Sete, south of France. With the absence of any cyclists (which I'm quite partial to at the minute) I thought I'd hang around until some shoppers turned up to give the poster a little more interest. I got another shot from the same spot with the town drunk staggering past but he wasn't quite the ideal model for the job :)
