Photographer’s Note
I presume, most of us, we have a special place where to go. My place is the small village of Oô, in the heart of the French Pyrenees. A small village with only 120 inhabitants. Here is where I go when I have to stay away from the daily life. Here I have time to read, hear music, stay outside the garden with the birds singing in the morning, to breath the fresh air,to walk, some trekking, Lac d'Oô, Lac Espingo, Val d'Astau, Peyresourde,Bourg d'Oueil,. Thermalisme and vaporarium in Bagnères de Luchon. Market every Wednesday and Saturday. Buy fresh cheese and milk in Poubeau. Aper-oô, special aperitif with the neighbours; Ricard, cured ham, cheese; talking; accordion music. I love cooking and it's a real pleasure to cook and have a meal all together. Play with the kids. I haven't mentioned the television, isn't right ? No need. Search flowers and take them back home in photographs and load them in my Mac.
This year i haven't been there yet. I'll go end July only for one week. I have scheduled a long trip in autumn to the South East of Asia. But my friends know I'll be back.

I have been to this small village and I always found the name, Oô, very funny. It is a very nice picture which brought back excellent memories of the French Pyrenees. Well done

Hola Roser,
veig que tú també tens el teu refugi per desconnectar, i certament aquesta foto ens permet sentir una miqueta el que dius a la nota. Descansar, llegir, sentir música, passejar per la natura, una mica de muntanya o esquí, viure la pau, coses que jo també aprecio molt.
M'agrada aquesta arquitectura de nova planta però que respecta l'estil tradicional.
Una foto molt maca, i que ja ens fa pensar en les vacances.
Una abraçada,
Josep

Bonjour Roser ,
Moi aussi , j'aime beaucoup les villages de la vallée du Larboust , avec leurs maisons de pierres au pignons de bois . Celles ci sont joliement restaurées . Si tu avais pu évité le morceau de bois en bas à gauche lors du cadrage , l'image aurait été plus belle . MAis j'aime les couleurs vives et contrastées , et la superbe lumière .
Amicalement.

Hi Roser,
your POV on this charming rural village (what a funny name it has!) is wonderful, giving me an excellent idea of this place. Very beautiful colors and light and a pleasant note to accompany this nice impression. TFS!
Warm regards

Hola Roser,
Se comprende bien tu fascinación por este lugar tan precioso, solo de mirar la foto. Una atmósfera muy bucólica de montaña de lindos colores y un sol estupendo... Muy atractiva...
Un abrazo,
