One of my favorite plans is to jump on a train and head to Geneva. I always walk along Quai Gustave-Ador to the Jet d'Eau, enjoying the nice path along Lake Geneva.

A couple of days ago, I did this again. After passing the Jet d'Eau, I looked back and noticed the setting sun creating a beautiful backlight behind the fountain. It was a view that I thought was worth a picture, so I quickly captured the moment with my camera.

This unexpected photo turned out to be one of my favorites from that spot, so I'm sharing it here with you.

Every time I visited Geneva and had to wait on the train station platforms, I noticed those luminous works of art in the street in front, and I always wondered what the story behind them was. The last time I visited Geneva, I took the photo you see above when I was passing by.

Some days ago, I read the story of those displays, and it's as interesting as they are beautiful: in December 2016, this work, titled "Pinta Cura", created by the local artist Frédéric Post, was set up in the center of Geneva for the 3rd edition of the Geneva Lux Festival. The work depicts the shamanic symbolism of yagé medicine among some indigenous peoples of Colombia, featuring the figures of the anaconda and the jaguar, two animals of power linked to healing and care.

A couple of days ago I had the opportunity to visit Geneva again with a good friend of mine who was visiting the region for the first time. We decided to pay a visit to this interesting city without a definite plan, just to chill and walk around. When we were passing near the cathedral, I noticed there were some people up in the tower, and I suggested we go up to get a panoramic view of the city (I had never done it before).

The plan turned out to be a very interesting one, offering beautiful views of the different parts of the city with a clear and sunny sky. One of those views is captured in the photograph above: the iconic Jet d'Eau in the middle of the clear waters of Lake Geneva.

A couple of days ago, while strolling through the center of Geneva, I stumbled upon a fascinating sight: an interesting composition in the background, with the Jet d'Eau visible in the distance, seemingly on the verge of reaching the grey clouds before it started to rain.
