Promises of Time / Les promesses du temps

🇬🇧 Turning a cobbled corner, two silhouettes walk slowly, carried by the years. Each step seems to seal a memory, a vow. The locks on the bridge are nothing compared to the bond held in their hands.
Captured on a winter day in Colmar, a picturesque Alsatian town. An elderly couple strolls through the historic district, passing half-timbered houses and traditional shops. A frozen moment between local heritage and human tenderness.

🇫🇷 Au détour d’une rue pavée, deux silhouettes avancent lentement, portées par les années. Chaque pas semble sceller un souvenir, un serment. Les cadenas sur le pont ne sont rien face à l’amour noué entre leurs mains.
Scène capturée en hiver à Colmar, ville alsacienne au riche patrimoine. Ce couple âgé traverse le quartier historique, devant les maisons à colombages et les commerces traditionnels. Un instant suspendu, entre architecture typique et tendresse humaine.
