The haze

Frankly, I don't remember taking this photo... Was it a hazy day, or smoke?

Place du Marché Gayot

Next to the cathedral, a quiet square with good restaurants. What looks like a stone in the background is actually made of cast iron, a sculpture by Daniel Pontoreau, called Pierre trouvée, found stone, in 1992.
Part of the castrum, roman camp. Strasbourg was founded in the year 12 AC by roman soldiers, 2038 years ago.

Olive oil

Olive oil surpasses everything, it says. Well, here in the north east of France, we don't use it much, it's rather a southern thing.

Out there

I went to the new planetarium a few weeks ago. This is just another far away galaxy. Are we alone??? Frankly, I doubt it.

More b&w here.

And glorious photos from the James Webb Space Telescope right...HERE
