Cheltenham - We Are Back by Walter C.

After about 6 months, we are back to Cheltenham and the Cotswolds. With even more pleasure the second time around in this oh-so-British region.

Amazing light and rainbows of greens. Warm and welcoming food. (God bless the bread and butter pudding). Beautiful landscapes.

And such welcoming places, like No 131 The Promenade (hotel and restaurant), The Tavern (pub) or Cowley Manor (hotel and restaurant).

A couple of pictures here.

Enjoy !

Cheltenham & the Cotswolds by Walter C.

When you imagine the English countryside, you may not know it, but the pictures you have in mind are probably from the Cotswolds - beautiful region, an hour away from London.

In this portfolio, a few pictures from a fantastic boutique hotel in Cheltenham, the 'Number 131 The Promenade'. I will let you guess the address. Where traditional meets quirky but so edgy English design. 

A couple of pictures from their sister restaurant, 'The Tavern'. Most typical gastro-pub which serves amazing food (try the burgers, the toffee cheesecake and everything else...).

And finishing with a stroll through Lower Slaughter - a very typical local village.

You can find the portfolio here.

Elounda... Small fishing town on the largest of the Greek islands. Where blue meets green meets ocre. And so many other colours.

A paradise for our family - in particular at the Domes of Elounda hotel. Perfect as a smurf-friendly hotel, without being a Disney-sponsored amusement park !

After 5 years, finally got to spend 4 days back in New York.  

Combination of the City continuously re-inventing itself, and, at the same time, holding on to some of its timeless features...

A couple of picture from this other amazing Italian city.

With a couple of themes which established themselves without really thinking about it:

  • Fiat 500... Old or new, they are just everywhere
  • Bicycles... Which, like the city, all have a natural 'je ne sais quoi"
  • Authority figures... Which, like the Romans, are all about style and attitude

Back to the origins.

Back to the origins of photography... 

The word "Photography" comes from the following Greek roots: 

  •  φωτός (phōtos), genitive of φῶς (phōs), "light
  • and γραφή (graphé) "representation by means of lines" or "drawing",
  • together meaning "drawing with light".

Drawing with light, painting with light... Like in the selection of pictures in this portfolio.

Retour aux origines.

Retour aux origines de la photographie...

Le mot "Photographie" vient du Grec:

  • le préfixe « photo- » - φωτoς (photos), qui réfère à la lumière, clarté;
  • le suffixe « -graphie » - γραφειν (graphein), qui veut dire peindre, dessiner, écrire
  • littéralement : « peindre avec la lumière ».

Peindre avec la lumière... Comme dans la selection de photos de ce portfolio.
