[Leica] A variety of pictures

[Peter Dzwig]

Don,

I know the feeling. Down in southern France where I photograph quite a 
bit, there has been a sudden expansion of vines, despite demand for wine 
decreasing. The shepherds and their flocks that once crossed the plain 
near us on their way up to the high pastures in the Alps are slowly 
disappearing.

When Doisneau documented the transhumance (movement of the flocks) in 
the fifties the animals grazed the scrub under the trees and reduced the 
risk of forest floor fire-spread. The lack of grazing is that some areas 
are now more vulnerable than they were previously, particularly near the 
coast.
