Château de Fleurigny

Travelling on the country roads in France

always brings lovely surprises.

Not too far from where our daughter lives

are several Châteaux worthwhile visiting.

Having said that we didn't actually visit

Château de Fleurigny

as there were only six of us on the day

and the minimum number to gain entrance was fifteen.

As it is in the middle of nowhere

it was highly unlikely we would find

another nine people to make up the numbers that day!

I was able to take a few photos and then we

moved on to another Château which I will show

you in a future post!

I've been away from my blog for two weeks

because of issues at work....

I was sorry to miss Donna's 

"Still Life" Photo Challenge this month.

I've been out today taking loads of tree pics for 

the November challenge!

I'll be catching up on visiting your blogs this week

and I'm looking forward to seeing what you've all been up to!

I'm joining

Judith for Mosaic Monday

and the girls at

Our World Tuesday

Thank you to the hosts.

Take care and 

be kind to one another

Merci à bientôt

France Fences - Part 2

I've rarely seen a plain ordinary fence in France!

You can only just see the fence amid the riot of flowers!
I snapped this one in my daughter's back garden
after hanging the washing on the line!
A stone wall with a garden and small fence behind.

I'm joining 
Judith for Mosaic Monday
Theresa for Good Fences
Nick for Floral Friday Fotos.

Take care and
be kind to one another
Merci à bientôt

Beautiful Fences of France

On my trips to France my trusty Panasonic Lumix camera

is always with me.

Prior to blogging most of the photos I took

involved people, family mainly.

How things have changed!

Now I take more photos of fences, gates, doors and windows

than I do of people!

I see photo ops everywhere I go...

I'm always lagging behind

because I've stopped to photograph

another rose covered fence or two!
Does that happen to you?

I couldn't walk past this fence, now could I?

especially as I'm so fond of roses....

and just look at the lovely old shutters in the background

another favourite subject of mine.

You would be surprised at the different

styles of shutters there are!

Hmm... I think I feel another post developing!!!

I'm joining Theresa for Good Fences

and

Enjoy your weekend 

thank you so much for your visits!

Take care and
be kind to one another

Merci à bientôt
