Had a beautiful cold walk up in the woods today. Just about enough snow for my wife and son to have a running snowball fight. After three days of being ill, it was a wonderful welcome change to the confines of my bed.

Another hike at Cap Leucate. This time on the other side of the nature reserve. Can’t believe it’s taken us 10 years to realise this area is so close to where we regularly vacation! #photography #beach #france #coast

Added a vignette to this one of Lucy. Can’t believe she’s 13. She still acts like a doggy teenager 😂 #photography #dog #doberman
