When we were returning from our week away, we passed by Montpelier (deliberately!) to see the William GEDNEY exhibition at the Pavillion Populaire.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The expo was ‘OK’ – some of the images provided an insight into life in America in the early 70’s, but overall I think the general quality was pretty awful. Shame, but I can’t help thinking that just<\/em> because the author was a homosexuel doesn’t really make an exhibition of his ‘work’ a masterpeice.<\/p>\n

Georges SOUCHE – \u00ab\u00a0Terrasses du Larzac\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n

We rang Georges SOUCHE our photographer friend who lives in these parts. We had already decided to visit his expo at the M\u00e9ridienne des Sens<\/strong> in Clermont H\u00e9rault, and when he discovered that we were passing by Montpelier,\u00a0 suggested a visit to the Gazette Caf\u00e9<\/strong> where a friend of his, Dominique QUET was having a small exhibition of images taken when he was working as a photo-journalist.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Can’t understand the title as there were only about 30 images…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The images were generally very good, his books more photo albums, but at least he uses Nikon * !!<\/p>\n

We managed a brief chat with Dominique, but despite messages and telephone calls, Georges managed to miss every rendezvous! Next year perhaps…<\/p>\n

The caf\u00e9 is a nice concept – it’s linked to the Montpelier Gazette and is basically open house for anyone who want’s to have a drink, read a book, have free WiFi… and of course it also provides a ‘wall’ for the occasional exhibition.<\/p>\n

* We met a very nice German couple during our week away from home, and one of the first questions Bert, the husband, asked was \u00ab\u00a0So, Nikon or Canon?\u00a0\u00bb – this when he found out that I took photographs.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
