zijn interessante grafzerken bij keith

Thank you Fred........some of them are very old..!!

J'aime beaucoup cette période. Cette église Romane semble monumentale

Glad you like the look of this church Jean Paul. Thanks for commenting.

Oh I recognise this church Keith. When we were there a few years ago, we couldn't get inside the church, so very good to see your excellent interior shot. It looks stunning.

Glad you like the photos Rosa.........the castle and grounds are nearly always worth a wander!

Thanks for commenting as always.

Interesting composition in which the eyes (mine, anyway) are first drawn in to the dark tree and shadowed church and then back out to the bright lawn, repeatedly. And it's beautiful, too.

Thank you so much for your interesting comments John...........I'm glad you like the photo and the church.

Ich liebe diese kleinen Kirchen mit ihren Friedhöfen.
Eine schöne Komposition, Keith!
