I went up painting at Sault one day last week, to get out of the heat.  Sault is a village high up on the plateau of the Montagne de Vaucluse.  Despite it's remote location it was heaving with people because there was a market on, and a lot of other people had the same idea to find somewhere cooler - so it was a bit of a challenge to find somewhere calm enough to paint. It turned out to be a good day with really good cloud formations as a storm formed over the mountains.
