Finistere is the Westernmost part of Brittany, which protrudes far into the Atlantic. It means, and literally is, Land's End. We visited Quimper, Morlaix, Landernau, St-Renan, plus parish closes of St. Thegonnec and Bodilis.
Thanks! I was pleasantly surprised the way it came out. The light was fading, and the last traces of sunset mixed with artificial lighting. It was pretty dark, I was sure nothing would come out of a handheld shot. O
Thanks! The light was interesting here, with the deep shade on a bright sunny day softened by a reflection from the brightly lit houses on the opposite side of the street. O
Интересно, они специально растения на стенах оставляют, или просто руки не доходят их убрать... Смотрится замечательно, но на памятнике архитектуры 16-го века как-то непривычно это видеть (если не в России :).
У них просто слишком много памятников архитектуры 16 века. Все не почистишь. Это если их раз-два, и обчелся - то над каждым дрожишь и пылинки сдуваешь. А если в каждой деревне - по десять, то чего зря беспокоиться. Опять же, смотрится хорошо, как Вы верно заметили. Может, туристы понабегут. А то памятников архитектуры много, а туристов на все не хватает. О
Thanks for the kind words. I'm very honored to be mentioned in the same sentence with medieval architects. And I also liked the way crucifix put an accent on the whole picture - makes me happy that you noticed. O
The gutters that I saw before in other places were all on the sides. I wonder why in this town they decided to make them in the middle. How ancient are they, BTW?
Actually, old gutters in medieval streets are often in the middle. There are houses on both sides, I'm sure owners would not want to jump over the gutter to get home. In this case, though, that logic does not apply: both sides are blank walls. Oleg
Please wait...
