  1. Funny. I am going to mention this to my blogger friend Ulysse :-))

    Your photos are really very beautiful, Jilly.

    Do you mean that le tour de France is "very French" ? I would like "la grandeur de la France" to be based on other "values" than that (lol). :-)))

  2. Both photos showcase the sculpture beautifully. The second one with the backdrop of the mountains and city is quite beautiful.
