elle est magnifique cette orgue, c'est ce qui manque (enfin je trouve) dans la cathedrale d'Evry

Oh, it's so beautiful. I particularly like the second photo, although I'm not exactly sure why, because they're both lovely.

Lovely reflected light.

Looks big ... wonder how many pipes! I'll bet the acoustics are good, too.

Lovely photos -- nice stained glass window and I love the lights in the second shot!

I can't imagine how amazing this impressive organ must sound. I love the colored light reflected from the window. Dazzling!

Me again! In re your question about boiled peanuts: here's a link that tells you all about them.

I've never tried them, although they're quite popular in the south.

There is something inspirational about the rich sounds of a pipe organ. Nice.

I love stained glass and the reflections it make.

Bob Crowe said...

You got a sense of the grandeur here. The bottom pic looks like the organ is already decorated for Christmas.

Awesome compositions, Ciel! The stained glass windows kind of remind me of Vieira da Silva's paintings.
