🫟 La Fête de la Soupe Street Art

Sete, France

Enough.

This heatwave has had its moment.

So here’s a little act of seasonal rebellion from last autumn in Nîmes.

The canal is covered in burnt amber leaves drifting across reflections of an impossibly blue sky. More leaves fall from the trees with no concern for cameras or calendars, quietly turning the water into a moving canvas. Every direction offers another color, another reflection, another excuse to slow down for a few seconds.

My spouse brought me here for my birthday, and somewhere between the water, the trees, and the changing light, Nîmes delivered one of the most beautiful autumn scenes I’ve ever experienced.

Maybe it’s too early to wish summer away.

Then again… maybe not.
