Ombres



Nice shadows on this house at the top of Avenue de Sceaux also seen from further away to the left of the second photo. -------------------------------------- Jolies ombres sur cette maison en haut de l'Avenue de Sceaux, vue de plus loin en bas à gauche.

The shadows are wonderful, but so are the colors of the building itself and the shutters. No matter where you point your camera, you have beautiful things to behold. :)

Les ombres descendent sur la ville...

Yes, a beautiful catch in several ways!

I love the colors on the house. It looks like a nice neighborhood for stroll.

You certainly picked a great part of the photo to enlarge--beautiful colors and shutters.

Way cool. I like the complex pattern the shadows make on the brown building while leaving the yellow one untouched.

Love those shutters. Ombres must be "umbras," or shadows, or auras, etc. Right?

These photos deserve comments! So beautifully made, as it seems as though it is late in the afternoon, quite pensive to me...again, your great eye!

Great shadows---I always forget to look for shadows.

I love the line of trees with the daffs in your previous post.

I am back but just barely. MB

Blue sky and sharp shadows, this is always a good sign.

I like the shadows on the bricks. It such a lovely line of buildings.

Yes, even before I read your test, these shadows jumped out at me. Cool!

Very nice. Around our parts, most of the shutters are decorative and do not function at all. I think the working ones make much more sense.

The hexagonal building reminds quite a deal of one from here in Lux.
God bless you!
