Les Baux-de-Provence, France: Carrieres de Lumieres

Sometimes you wish you have a better camera.

Carrieres de Lumieres is a unique attraction in the hills of Les Baux-de-Provence, a village in the south of France. The area used to be a quarry. But after a little work to smooth out the walls, it became a place to show massive examples of art work. Therefore, the viewer is more or less surrounded by the images.

During our visit, two demonstrations were staged - one on Van Gogh, the other on Japanese art. It all works quite well, but it's dark in there - as it should be. That makes it tough on the amateur photographer.

Sadly, there was a video of the place... but it has been taken down.
