Stream behind the lake at Puivert

If you leave the lake at Puivert by the road that runs past the lakeside restaurant, you will come to a small ford across this stream, on a flat concrete bridge that's underwater much of the time. This day, back in April of last year, the concrete platform was high and dry and my friend Joan and I set up to paint there. It was a challenge - the coolness over the stream generated a strong wind, and our canvases were frequently in danger of blowing into the stream.
