Carousel, the Place de l’Horloge, Avignon, France
When I need to breathe, I like to run with the horses, metaphorically. Every larger city in France seems to have at least one carousel. Unfortunately, some of them are definitely only child-sized. This wonderful adult-sized carousel is in the Place de l’Horloge, Avignon’s main square. I ran with the horses, in a sedate shell carriage.
Le Carousel de Cèzenne, Aix-en-Provence
The wonderful Le Carousel de Cèzanne near Cours Mirabeau in Aix-de-Provence was not really built for adults, but I was allowed to ride.
Children’s carousel, Christmas Market, Saint-Denis, France
Many carousels appear to be seasonal, such as this petite carousel. It was not meant for me but it was lovely to watch it go round. At the Christmas market in Saint-Denis, a northern suburb of Paris, France.

Pink Poppy
I recently purchased Topaz Studio (by Topaz Labs) and several of the preset collections. I have been having fun with the conceptual presets on some flower pictures I took this summer. I love the effects created.
