The Bicycle
As I noted Wednesday, Port Grimaud offered more photographically than even the more famous Saint-Tropez. In selecting today’s Fun Photo Friday favorites, Port Grimaud shots beat out Saint-Tropez by nearly two-to-one:
Anchorage
Balcony and Shadows
Roof Tiles
Window on Wall
Port Grimaud Street Scene
Closed Shutters
Saint-Tropez Reflection
l’Auberge des Maures
Cuisine Provençal
Blue Shutters on Pink Walls
