Entrée d'une voie privée

I was showing you a private street on the Avenue de Paris here. Here's a better view of the gate! I dabbled a bit with the sky colour, it was just too white...

Je vous montrais l'entrée d'une rue privée, située Avenue de Paris, ici. Voici une meilleure vue de la grille. J'ai un peu triché avec la couleur du ciel, mais il était trop blanc...

Well it matches the trees perfectly and adds to the picture - good dabbling!

I don't like it when "Ciel" is blue. But I do love this image.

Do you have to be 55 or over to get through that gate? Heh, heh!

Looks like a lovely street, but they really shouldn't let the riff-raff in!

Interesting sky cold ... I hate white skies in my photos, too. By the way, do you use Photoshop...let me know, as I have something that would work well for you IF you're using PS!

It looks like you did a good job of dabbling with the color. Nice shot, Ciel!

du lilas , ou peut-être des glycines?..j'adore cette couleur! Ah, rêver de'un monde aux cieux d'une harmonie violette..!

Olivier said...

un ciel couleur lilas, il y a que la ville du roi soleil qui peut se l'offrir ;) Et tu as le droit de prendre des photos dans cette rue privée ?

Loree said...

I really like what you did with the sky. It has an enchanting quality about it.

Paulie said...

The gate is stunning.. O think the white sky would ahve set it off more. The light blue is distracting to me.

Woody said...

There's so much to like in this photo besides the gate. The chain and supports are really cool with the acorn tops. Great stuff!!

Serline said...

The colour of the flowers is my hubby's favourite :-)

Gunn said...

I like it, colorful and beautiful tree, and an impressive gate!

Halcyon said...

I like the purple-y sky. It matches the trees!

VP said...

I like this angle even more, it would look as a solemn entrance to an old villa, but in the other pictures it looks more a chapel or something like that.

Beautiful iron gate and the sky matches the color of the lilacs.

The gate is beautiful and I love a lavender sky. MB

My mind is in an associative mood tonight and has me thinking Schloss Schönbrunn in Vienna. Don't ask why.

gogouci said...

Great job dabbling, the added color does well.

James said...

I'm usually not a fan of fake colored skies but you did a wonderful job. It looks right.

Louis la Vache said...

The slightly lilac color you gave the sky reminds «Louis» of
"I've never seen a purple cow;
I never hope to see one.
But I can tell you anyhow,
I'd rather see than be one!"

Chuck Pefley said...

Looks like lavender perfume spilled up on the sky -:)

Bergson said...

le concierge doit être costaud pôur fermer la grille tous les soirs

Catherine said...

J'ai tout de suite vu que t'avais triché ! Un ciel pareil, ça fait 8 mois qu'on n'en a pas vu la couleur ! :-) Et c'est bien mieux comme cela ! Au dessus de mla Loire, nous devrions tous faire cela, na !

EG CameraGirl said...

Tee hee! A lavender sky. I like that idea. :)
