Last Sunday, the next day of shooting a wedding in Noumea, I was wandering with a good friend by the Chateau Royal beach with my Leica M9.

The scene has changed since I left more than a decade ago but the beauty still remains. I couldn’t resist but taking a quick snap.

This beach was a landmark of Noumea for various major events involving water/wind sports such as kite, windsurf and even jet ski competitions. It used to be the bay view of the now demolished Club Med. Memories remain.
