Default Back from a stroll around town

The river going through my town is quite *empty* right now, so I could practically cross it on foot without a drop of water on me...
I got these pictures:







And this one I took ten minutes before of the great medieval stairs going up to the chapel and the tower.
Click through to view the full-size version, and you can read its name on the glass plate on the wall!



Enjoy!

Many more also on my Flickr page.

Well, you live in a real pretty town, and you have done an excelent job of capturing some of its features. I love the rich colors in the first three, and the atmosphere of the last one. Good going.

Oh, absolutely lovely photographs. I love the composition of the last in particular. Alas, I have only seen a little of France. I hope to come back again and visit in a couple of years.

Love the shots but I think you should straighten up a couple of them no.2 & 5. No 1 is okay. Just my opinion. Cheers, Bernz
