Rendezvous

I have always been facinated by places where nature has defined its own way of making its bounties meet each other. In this shot taken from a flight (coming in to land at Nice, French Riviera in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur) one can see the Alps on the left (all covered with snow), lower ranges in the middle gently moving into the Mediterranean Bay with the city of Nice sandwitched beautifully in between. This place receives the warm winds from north of Africa which hit the cold field from Alps to give clear sunshine for over 300 days in a year.
