Mazet in the pines

I've always liked this mazet sheltered by pine trees just off the road between Gabian and Fouzilhon. The trouble is it's so well sheltered that the sun hardly ever shines on it. This morning I wanted a blip that showed the kind of bright windy autumn day that we often have at this time of year - cold, only 9 degrees C when I went out at 10 this morning, but so light and clear. I liked the way the sunlight shone on the vines in the foreground and on the tops of the olive trees, even if not on the mazet itself!


Edit: A mazet is a tool store and a place where workers in the vines used to shelter from the sun in the middle of the day. They are dotted about everywhere among the vineyards here, probably mostly no longer used, but still lovely old stone buildings.
