On the Easter holiday this year I went to the coast in Norfolk. Two of
the pages from the trip are now up on mjausson.com.

Heading North describes the journey north via the famous gardens at
Anglesey Abbey in Cambridgeshire and the sunny, sheltered beach in
Hunstanton, Norfolk.
http://www.mjausson.com/2006/walk14Apr06.html

Steam Trains and Seals includes photos of steam trains on the Poppy
Line between Sheringham and Holt, and lots of seals from a seal
watching trip to Blakeney Point in a motor boat.
http://www.mjausson.com/2006/walk15Apr06.html

There are two more pages from Norfolk in the works but with my new job
and all I won't promise anything about when they'll be online.

Enjoy! :-)

I vacationed in Provence in May of last year. It's taken me nearly a
year but now I have finally put together the last of seven pages from
that holiday.

Pretty villages and limestone cliffs in Séguret and Gigondas
http://www.mjausson.com/2005/may05Segueret.html

A sunny walk high in the mountains above St. Rémy
http://www.mjausson.com/2005/may05StRemy.html

Fountains, cats and mountains in Pernes-les-Fontaines, Venasque & Gordes
http://www.mjausson.com/2005/may05Pernes.html

A romantic chateau and a rustic mountain village in Grignan and
Buis-les-Baronnies
http://www.mjausson.com/2005/may05Grignan.html

A wildflower extravaganza and some very fine village shops in Gorges
de la Nesque and Sault
http://www.mjausson.com/2005/may05Nesque.html

Avignon, the city of popes and of that bridge everybody sings about
http://www.mjausson.com/2005/may05Avignon.html

And finally, a walk in the scented shades of cedars in Forêt de Cèdres
http://www.mjausson.com/2005/may05Cedres.html

Each page also has a link to download a screensaver with large-format
images. If you want to see all screensavers at once, you can do so
here: http://www.mjausson.com/screensavers.htm Of course you can also
use the large images as wallpaper on your desktop.

I hope you enjoy all these new pages!
Cheers,

I've published two very different pages on Mjausson's Walks. The first
one is from the Oxfordshire stately home of Rousham in July. It's full
of lush foliage and colourful flowers.
http://www.mjausson.com/2004/walk04Jul04.html

The other one is from Woburn Abbey in Bedfordshire in late November of
this year. It's very autumnal, with expansive vistas framed by
venerable oaks clad in brown foliage.
http://www.mjausson.com/2004/walk27Nov04.html

What the pages have in common, is that I'm continuing to make large
versions available for some pictures. Just click on the wallpaper link
next to the photo. The Woburn Abbey page also includes a scrolling
panorama of the great lake in front of the manor.

I hope you enjoy these two new pages!
Cheers,

I went to Normandy over the bank holiday weekend at the end of May.
Now the pictures are on my web site.

<img

In mid-May I went to the Royal Botanical Gardens at Kew. The
resulting page is a veritable orgy in flowers, mostly water lilies,
irises and tree peonies, but there are also some birds. I got a nice
series of pictures of a male eider, for instance.
http://www.mjausson.com/2003/walk15May03.htm

Hope you guys enjoy it!

in photo blog communities. Here are some examples of such posts.

I've published three new pages over the last few weeks. Two are from
aristocratic gardens and one from the woods.

First out is Syon Park. Most of the pictures here are from my visit
to the Butterfly House but there are some from the extensive gardens
too.
http://www.mjausson.com/2003/walk24Feb03.htm

Next is Stowe Landscape Gardens outside Buckingham. It's a garden
historically significant garden with many follies and temples.
http://www.mjausson.com/2003/walk06Mar03.htm

And today I published pictures of pines, birches and heathland near
Seale in Surrey.

Three new pages with spring sunshine.

The first is from Durdle Door, a curious rock formation on the south
coast in Dorset.
http://www.mjausson.com/2003/walk22Jan03.htm

Next comes another visit to Stonehenge, this time with beautiful
weather and atmospheric light.
http://www.mjausson.com/2003/walk23Jan03.htm

And finally, a visit to an aristocratic garden famed for its snowdrop
displays, Benington Lordship.
http://www.mjausson.com/2003/walk18Feb03.htm

I take quite a lot of pictures that don't fit into the theme and
format of the web site. They often end up in my blog
(http://apel.livejournal.com) instead.

Just two examples:
Pictures of flowers, taken on a walk today.

http://www.mjausson.com/2002/walk07Sep02.htm

Another sunny day in Salford near the Rollrights
http://www.mjausson.com/2002/walk10Sep02.htm

A cultured day looking at art in Birmingham
http://www.mjausson.com/2002/walk08Oct02.htm

Three pages from walks in August in Oxfordshire are now online at

A longer and not quite as nice walk around Great Tew at
http://www.mjausson.com/2002/walk26Aug02.htm

And a real corker with lots of sunset pictures from my favourite
place in the UK, Barford St. Michael
http://www.mjausson.com/2002/walk29Aug02.htm

I hope you enjoy them.
--Mjausson

The photos from July are now published. They are:

A sunny day in the atmospheric inns of law in central London
http://www.mjausson.com/2002/walk22Jul02.htm

A return visit to the photogenic Herbert's Shed in Chesham
http://www.mjausson.com/2002/walk18Jul02.htm

A variety of botanical close-ups from Westoning
http://www.mjausson.com/2002/walk16Jul02.htm

I hope you like them.
--Mjausson

Finally I've published the photos from my visit to Wiltshire in July.

Not strictly in Wiltshire, Winchester still has a lot of history
http://www.mjausson.com/2002/wiltshireJul01.htm

Avebury with its huge stone circle
http://www.mjausson.com/2002/wiltshireJul02.htm

West Kennet Long Barrow is connected to Avebury by West Kennet Avenue
http://www.mjausson.com/2002/wiltshireJul03.htm

Stonehenge needs no introduction
http://www.mjausson.com/2002/wiltshireJul04.htm

Salisbury is where Handel had his first English recital
http://www.mjausson.com/2002/wiltshireJul05.htm

A walk in the Marlborough Downs
http://www.mjausson.com/2002/wiltshireJul06.htm

The Romantic garden with many Classical temples in Stourhead
http://www.mjausson.com/2002/wiltshireJul07.htm

If I would choose a favourite it would definitely be the visit to
West Kennet Long Barrow and the West Kennet Avenue. These are magical
places and much less visited than both Avebury and Stonehenge.

I went to California in early June and this time two pages of photos
are the result.

The first is from the Botanical Garden showcasing California native
plants in Tilden Park in the Berkeley Hills.
http://www.mjausson.com/2002/CAJunBerkeley.htm

The other is from Pleasanton Ridge with lots of pictures of olives
and velvety, golden hills.
http://www.mjausson.com/2002/CAJunPleasanton.htm

Enjoy!
--Mjausson

On a bright day in mid-May I went to Westoning and took photos of
flowers and countryside. You can see the results at
http://www.mjausson.com/2002/walk19May02.htm

This isn't the first time I've been to Westoning. Last time was in
November 2000, as you can see on
http://www.mjausson.com/2000/walk18Nov00.htm

--Mjausson

It's been a rough spring and I haven't been able to walk as much as I
would like. As a result mjausson.com hasn't been updated as often as
it used to. But at last I've published another page. It's
called "Rothschild's Riches" and shows photos from Waddesdon Manor in
Buckinghamshire.

Waddesdon was built in the late nineteenth century by the seriously
rich London Rothschilds. The page shows a lot of statuary from the
large gardens but also architectural detail from the mock Renaissance
castle and some spring flowers.

I hope you enjoy it.

My next trip goes to northern California in early June. I'll send out
an email when the pictures are available on mjausson.com.
Cheers,
--Mjausson

site.

I've just published four sunny and wintry pages from the Chilterns.

Backwards this Time is from Great Missenden and features some lovely
Chiltern woodlands and a fine sunset.
http://www.mjausson.com/2001/walk08Dec01.htm

Ice and Bark from Cookley Green is another sunny walk with abstract
photos of patterns in ice and bark.
http://www.mjausson.com/2001/walk23Dec01.htm

Middle Assendon: Ice and Ruins shows more ice pictures and the
romantic ruin of a Norman church.
http://www.mjausson.com/2001/walk26Dec01.htm

The last page is called Herbert's Shed because many of the pictures
show a shed. In the lovely light of a winter's afternoon the old wood
and brick came out beautifully. That walk started in Chesham.
http://www.mjausson.com/2002/walk19Jan02.htm

In other news I've been on holiday in California. I'll announce the
photos on this list once they are published. They show a lot of oaks,
olives and green hills but also some tourist sites such as the Golden
Gate Bridge.

Italy. Each walk page contains notes about maps used and route taken
as well as the weather on that day, and, of course, 10-30 photographs
taken during the outing.

To make the site more accessible there are collections of photos
themed around e.g. sunsets or flowers. There is also a search engine
to help you find photographs from a given area, with a certain
subject etc.
