Have you heard
there's a new linky party
It's all about
grey
gray
gris
Michelle has listed seven adjectives describing grey
this is the one that resonates with me:
7. ancient; venerable
a perfect description for these photos I took
in France in June/July this year.
Ancient silvered/grey wooden beams of the lavage
Everywhere I looked I saw grey
ancient
timeless
an exquisite relief in a chateau
a sculpture of the little princesses.
Thank you Michelle for hosting this party
I'm a grey girl too!
Wishing everyone a very happy fun weekend!
À bientôt
be kind to one another

ReplyDeleteI learned it here first.☺ Oh I never would have thought gray in France, but I see that I would have been wrong. Wonderful photos perfectly illustrating your point!

Beautifully done Shane, your photos must make you relive your trip to France at any given moment! Happy September 1st. Xo
ReplyDeleteGreat photos Shane. It gives a good impression of the warm grey colors of France.
ReplyDeleteLove and hugs Yvonne
Beautiful photos of France. I'm sure each one has a story you could tell.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful greys, dear Shane. You are lucky to have been able to "collect" these in France. The French greys always seem to be especially charming.
ReplyDeleteLittle Jules thanks his Aunty Shane for the warm welcome and the tummy scratches :).
Have a wonderful week!
Hugs,
Julia
I love the wonderful texture and appearance of old stone walls. The stories they could tell . . .

Shane,
ReplyDeleteYour grey images are not gray (drab) at all. They so say France! I love seeing all of them and cannot choose a favorite.

Hi Shane, when I saw "Mina Loves Art" but saw the signature "Shane" I was a bit confused. I said to myself, I only know one Shane -- who is this new person who acts like they know me? Ha! Interesting that it signs you in like that sometimes. On some blogs, my blog name pops up fine in the comment, and in others, it has some extra characters that shouldn't be in there. Think it has something to do with the apostrophe in my blog name. Strange. Glad to hear all is well with you. Best wishes, Tammy
ReplyDeleteGray is a colour I tend to associate with 'old', probably because so many of the old tombstones (which I love) are gray. It's a colour that just says 'history'.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful examples of the colour grey, Shane. I love beautifully aged wood and stone. Pamela
ReplyDeleteLove your French greys,dear Shane and your glue book is absolutely gorgeous.Have a lovely day.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Marie

Hello Dear Shane
ReplyDeleteI love each and everyone of these magnificent images and your collage too.
These really depict the old greys of France. I particularly love the doorways, stonework, the heavy beams and especially the gorgeous sculpture of the girls - just charming!
Sending warm hugs and love,
Suzy
Hello! I saw your About Me and saw that you were a fellow Francophile! I've been in love with all things French since going there last summer. That's where I found my love for gray too, gray and blue to be specific. I'm a new follower! Looking forward to seeing more Frenchy things from you.
