Photographer’s Note
299th shot on TE (remark: on the snapshot, you will read 298 photos, and at the back of the presentation on photo location information 299)- this last figure is the right one. I tried to reach 300 for my birthday - 62 years old- but the administrators don't help me!! And 299 is as good as 300 or 298!
An old scanned slide, figuring old ladies chatting in the shadow of a house - television was invented, but was not working in the afternoons, and even they don't care. Look at their black dress. It's only 2 generations difference, the world is changing fast.

bonjour claude,
congratulations on your 299th - today I publish my 300th, so we share an achievement :)
I love old photos - they are true, rough, closer to life than a lot of polished images of nowadays.
here I like especially the second grandmother on the left - she reminds me of one of my grandmothers, always crossed, always skeptical...
have a good day,
c.

bonjour Claude
alors je te souhaite un heureux double anniversaire!299 c'est presque pareil que 300 en nombre,mais c'est beaucoup plus original!L'aspect vieilli que donne le scan s'accorde parfaitement avec le sujet de la photo,et les couleurs bleutées réveilllées par les fleurs rouges sont bien agréables à regarder!
Amicalement
Pascale
