This gentleman lost his wife recently. He is very sad and walks around the village with his dog, hoping to find somebody to talk to, as he feels very lonely...

Rain or shine, a dog lover hits the wet pavement as an inspired and good photographer lets her camera on an outing. Great story and shot Heidi. BV.

The rain adds to the melancholy mood, which is highlighted by your story. A lovely series. V

Difficult moment to go through. Good thing he has a dog.

You must walk the dog. He loves his pup, I can tell! :)

Image is fabulous itself although deep and touching. Story telling which is confirmed by your text. Excellent job.

Yes, a fabulous capture. So, the weather in Southern France is pretty much the same as here.
