Bonjour Jean Jacques

Tu as bien profitй de ton escapade troyenne pour dйcouvrir ses joyaux d'architecture mйdiйvale sous de beaux йclairage. Ici, le soleil couchant pare d'orange le portail gothique de la cathйdrale saint Pierre, et au lieu de le prendre directement, tu as fait un 180° pour avoir un beau contraste colorimйtrique (cependant, je trouve ton mur trop magenta, il devrait кtre plus ou moins blanc)
Amicalement

Hello Jean Jacques,
You made a fine observation. The effect of the cathedral reflected in these simple windows is magnificent. I also like the warm tones of the reflections surrounded by the rather cold grey wall of the ordinary house. You have presented this well in a nicely cropped photo.

Gert

Bonjour, cher JJ,
Les volets persiennйs auraient besoin d'une rйhabilitation, mais c'est ce qui fait tout le charme de ces vieilles maisons.
Quant aux reflets dans les carreaux, c'est tout simplement excellent !
Trиs bonne journйe.
Amitiйs.

Bonjour JJ

Du trиs beau travail. Il faut avoir le coup d'oeil et trиs bien observer .L'effet est superbe, surtout si on considиre l'йtait du cadre qui semble avoir besoin d'un peu d'amour.

Amicalement

Hello Jean Jacques

This is a beautiful picture. The warm light give the reflections in the windows lovely golden tones. The fact that the shutter is missing to the left breaks up the symmetry a bit. Great work:) TFS.

Greetings, Erling

Bonjour Jean Jacques
superbe phto de ces deux fenкtres dont une а laquelle il manque un volet, voire mкme 2, ce qui en fait le charme avec ceux de la fen^tre voisine mais aussi les jolis reflets de la cathйdrale dans les vitres
excellent

Salut JJ,
Excellent rйsultat, trиs belle image originale avec ces reflets dorйs et l'intйressante architecture de la cathйdrale. Belle rйalisation, bravo !

Fascinating shot within the frame of a window !!
The bright golden reflection of the cathedral has been well captured.
The reflection of warm colours, the distortions - all this within the frame of a worn out old window is superb.
Thanks for sharing, Jean.

Hi Jean
This makes an eye-catching shot with the extra view within the window setting creating a striking contrast. Nicely seen and well captured, a unique way of looking at it. Excellent work Congrats
Best wishes

Bonjour Jean Jacques,the timing has to be just right, when the light is at a level to create the reflections.
The beautiful golden details of the Cathedral are wonderful, and framed by two interesting windows.
Regards Jean.
