Colour


Rue des Marins, Menton

'Man needs colour to live; it's just as necessary an element as fire and water. '

    Great photo choice to illustrate your quote. I particularly like the iron railing and the lantern.

    Beautiful photo. We took hundreds of photos of windows in these little nooks the las time we were in Provence. What is it about them that makes us just say "Ah....."?

    When I compare these houses to mine, I wonder how we, parisians, succeed to survive.
    Maybe my regular visits to Menton, and my memories, help......

    Magnifique, Jilly! Le Sud va reprendre ses couleurs, avec le soleil qui est de retour !

    This is gorgeous, Jilly. It has all the elements I look for in a detail/color photograph. It's even gorgeous in a thumbnail...

    This is a great shot Jilly. The composition and the angle, not to mention the fabulous colors here are just terrific. I would have been right beside you trying this same shot! :) ( well I wish!)

    Some colours just get better with age, like some people, and fine wine.
