Situated in the South of France, the Camargue is the largest river delta of Western Europe . Two arms of the Rhône and the Mediterranean Sea in the south enclose it. This huge area covers a variety of habitats: marshes, lagoons, beaches, dunes, salt and fresh water. But perhaps most interestingly, the Camargue is also a very important refuge for migrating, wintering and breeding birds and today most of that area is protected and became a national nature reserve.

Often I do not want to go out and shoot anything when it’s raining again like many of you will recognise. But lately I have been trying to take advantage of the bad weather by going out and hoping to shoot some different images. The atmosphere of a rainstorm or just a few drops of rain can really give a photograph a whole new dimension.
