Akira, I will never show this image larger than a post stamp in the future!
Thanks averyone.

the next one is typpical of Brittany, where anyone able to reliably forecasting weather would be either fantasticly smart (and rich) or lucky (and rich). Anyway the only correct forecast is "rainy with moments of grace. Mild temperatures".

Olivier, that's a relief.  :D

The rock-sky-sea image looks as if it were a composit image.  So surreal, not because of IR.

The last one is factastic:well seen, well captured and tastefully processed.

Thanks for sharing!

One more.
The village of Kerloas hosts the tallest erected stone (menhir) in Europe. It is more than 9m tall and I still wonder how it was dragged there and erected...

I imagine he sits there hewing this stone from the sourrounding rock with his bare hands.

Meaning he clears that what is now a forest to make room for some nice trees for Idefix...

PS: I love it that it is IR, I feel it is IR with a meaning not just IR because you also know how to take it. Very well justified aesthetically in this case.

Thank you Frank.
It is funny that this cartoon has become internationally famous when is is stuffed with references to French history, personnalities and small stories.
Maybe it is because it emphasizes and mocks the bad temper that some French have?

I love your eye ... your sense of proportion and scale, your sacred treatment of sky and clouds. Well done.

I do not think so. The references are to universal humane faults and quirks...
