One Day in Cannes
 

Beach and hotels in Cannes, France

 

Cannes in Black and White

Photo Essay

By the time we had reached Cannes, we were ready for a rest. Especially Di as her cold was at its worst. The front desk clerk was superb and with our early check-in, there was plenty of time for the girls to rest while I did a quick grocery run.

We were in no rush and on the hotel's recommendation took the public bus rather than attempting to park in downtown Cannes. The bus was okay but took longer than expected and it was quite a bumpy ride.

Cannes is indeed flashy with expensive boats and yachts lining the harbor front. We did not run into any movie stars, but we were also a month early for the Cannes Movie Festival. We found an ice cream parlor along the corniche and went about our business of being tourists in the sun.

 
 

The photos in this article are made using a Fujifilm X-Pro2. Lenses: XF 14mm f/2.8 R - XF 35mm f/2 R WR - XF 90mm f/2 R LM WR (links to my camera and lens reviews). Editing was done in Lightroom. I used the Fujifilm Acros film simulation for the black and white photos in this post.
