Hello Lovelies! pretty amazing shot by sam&matteo. I'm so sorry about not blogging lately. I must tell that I am sick in bed. Also my computer crashed.

They were sweeping views, of course, but i also met this nice little fellow who had amazing colors on his back and even turquoise legs! View from Mont Gerbier des Joncs. ... [Lire la suite]
