D-Day remembrance

Exactly 70 years ago many soldiers from all over the free world took part in D-Day, aka the Normandy landing which aim was to free the French - and all occupied countries - from nazi Germany. It was also the largest seaborne invasion in history. All this week there has been several events to commemorate this historical day, but tomorrow is, of course, the highlight of the week. I anticipated it, so I took a photo of the unknown soldier before my departure. They already had flowers around the tomb that they normally don't have outside commemoration periods.

PDP, the last year!

Today is the 9th anniversary of PDP...  Had I known when I started PDP in 2005 with a little Sony camera that I would still be running it 9 years later,  I would have never believed it! Everything has to come to an end though and... well, today is the first day of the last year of PDP. I have one more year to grab the essence of one of the most beautiful cities in the world and I do hope you'll stick with me for one more round ;-) Happy anniversary to you too!
