c'est un parking réservé au deux roues ;o) bien vu la photo.
ReplyDeleteI could happily retyre here. My favourite splash of purple.
ReplyDeleteWonderful capture here. Good facade here
ReplyDeleteVery good idea, especially for drivers-beginners ;-)
ReplyDeleteGood place to park there, also two missing tires :)
ReplyDeleteA lovely place and the sign isn't bad there either but the tires spoil the flowers. Still, if left there very long the flowers will, eventually, cover the tires up.
ReplyDeleteIt is a lovely set of blooms.
Whoops? What does PRIVE mean?
ReplyDeleteIt means Private, Abe. it's one in a group of parking places outside a block of apartments.
ReplyDeleteThose two tires look like two big mouths, open-wide, in a state of wonder...as if they are searching for the rest of the car. This is such a cleverly composed shot, Jilly.
ReplyDeleteThe bishop's car park, maybe?
ReplyDeleteI like the contrast between the old tyres and the beautiful blooms. Great splash of colour too!
ReplyDeleteGenius shot.Bravo!

Gorgeous bougainvillea. I don't know if in french it is called bougainvillier.
ReplyDeleteThe tree is absolutely stunning. I love the petals on the ground!
ReplyDeleteLove the (what is it?) bougainvillea; one of my favorite colors. And the tires stand in contrast!
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of flowers are these? Whatever they are, what a great way to beautify a parking lot.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jilly!

To everyone who asked, this is bougainvillea. This is the most common colour and grows very vigorously.
ReplyDeleteIn French, it's almost the same - bougainvillee (with an accent).
That's the funniest photograph! What a great find.
ReplyDeleteI feel that the sign and tires, altho realistic of the modern world, are an intrusion interfering with glorious nature. It's a wonderful capture to depict society.
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful. I love bougainvillea (of course it's far too cold for it up here,apart from in the greenhouses in the Botanic Gardens).
