Bonjour,
Belgian gynecologist now retired in southern France, aged 74, amateur photographer for nearly 65 years, turned to digital photography and Gimp in 2007 after my trusted Canon 1v and all my gear were stolen. Mostly interested in landscape and macro photography. The Gimp was quite a challenge at first but I wouldn't change for anything else now.
Married, 3 children and 7 grand children. Hobbies: tennis, gardening, photography of course, good food, wine and single malts...

Bonjour gpzt,
Welcome to Gimpchat. I would love to visit France and see the people and wonderful culture. Do you have a website with pictures you've taken? I'd be interested in seeing some of your work.

Welcome to Gimp Chat gpzt. Gotta love those French Wines. Chatenauf du Paupe-1973 is to die for!
(Hope I spelled that right)

What a beautiful photo that you posted. Did you do any post processing on it or is that as you took it?
