I don’t really need an excuse to post a photograph of French cheese, do I?  Any reason will do, and this is the shot I thought of when I saw the prompt ‘Curves’ for this week’s photography challenge.

I took it in January in the middle of a snow storm, when even on a dark Sunday morning with 5 inches of snow on the ground the market holder still made it into Paris for us to buy some before catching the train back to London in the afternoon.  In fact it was the presence of the market in the street that gave me confidence that the trains might be operating, as otherwise there was a thick white blanket over everything suggesting the possibility of complete transport breakdown.

The St Marcellin was delicious.
