gummibear Posted August 23, 2014 Share Did you take that Gummi.? It looks to me like a shot from the old port in Marseilles looking up to the Notre-dame de la Garde Church.? Lovely photo. I have spent many Sundays at the Notre-Dame de la Garde mass, its a beautiful church and you can see out over almost the whole of Marseille and the surrounding Med.Afterwards I always like to wonder around the old port, exactly where the photo was taken, and on Sundays they have a wonderful fresh fish market, the fishermen bring their boats up to the dock side and offload their mornings catch which is sold. Behind that row of apartments on the dock side is an open square where there is always some activity and in the very corner is a steak restaurant where the owner even has South African wines on the menu, last time I had a wonderful bottle of Alto Rouge with my steak, the wine expensive by SA standards but not for the Frenchies, he says the guests love it, one of his better sellers. His steaks are great as well, cooked right in front of you over a huge open pit with a proper wood fire, no gas cooking here, on Sundays they have a side of beef cooking over the fire and you can have as much as you like, you just go carve it off. Marseille is a wonderful city, brings back lots of memories. Yes GOG I was there a few weeks back and the views from the old Port are spectacular.the food is good and met a few very nice locals that showed me around. Marseille is now one of my Favourite cities I have visited and I'll definitely go back. Wyatt Earp and GrumpyOldGuy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted August 29, 2014 Share Not my photo, but given the current weather conditions i thought it would be appropriate. Plus the contrast is fantastic. Edited August 29, 2014 by geraldm24 Tromp, nonky and DJR 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJR Posted August 30, 2014 Share Sometimes a photograph (the one of the snow above) can bring back long forgotten experiences so vividly, it is simply magic. That's why I decided to post this one. It was taken in 1987, in the Swartberg Pass, with my first SLR (a Ricoh), of my first car (a Suzuki SJ410). The quality isn't good because it was scanned from a 27 year old print, but in my mind, it made that day as crisp as it ever was.

Frosty Posted August 30, 2014 Share Given that 15+ years ago you couldn't view your shot until developing the film, really good photos make excellent ones. Edited August 30, 2014 by geraldm24 ThePubSA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
