Thanks, Nathan. It's not me, it's Provence! But I'll take the 
compliment, of course!

One of the tings that fascinates me about southern France is how the 
light varies. The light in Oppede is very different from Nice, which is 
very different from Arles or Marseille or Montpellier. Even if you cross 
the hills between us and the sea, it changes.
