    It didn’t feel real either, sailing through a silent world early in the morning.

    A wonderfully atmospheric picture. It hardly seems real.

    Striking image, this splash of colour in the middle of the black and white landscape, it takes a sharp eye!

      I was lucky, because there were a few lights in the windows.

      Yes it was. The whole trip on the Seine with frosty riverbanks, was a delight.

    When I was younger I used to make sure I was in the right place but nowadays it’s a matter of luck!

      Thank you. One of those flukes that sometimes happen. The house just loomed out of the mist and I was on the balcony of the river boat at the time, despite the cold – it was New Year’s Eve.

      Yes, it was cold. This was New Year’s Eve two years ago on a special boat trip from Le Havre to Rouen where we spent two nights. I’d never done anything like this before and I really enjoyed it.
