March CDP Theme Day: your favourite part of town

Well... it's the first of yet another month! I don't have a favourite part of town, but truth be told, I really like Saint-Louis neighbourhood where you see this kind of village type scene. Happy Theme Day and happy March! Click here to view thumbnails for all participants

Déjà le premier du mois suivant ! Je n'ai pas vraiment de coin préféré mais j'avoue que j'aime bien le quartier Saint-Louis où il y a une atmosphère de village... Bon mois de mars !

    Someone likes blue, how else could you get the bike and house to match color?? The cobblestone sidewalk and the old bench really tell a charming tale. Any idea what that is above and to the right of the window?

  9. Beautiful blues! The bikes just throw this over the top... I love it and know why you chose this scene... I have made a note of Saint Louis neighborhood and hope to get there some day!

  12. Simply charming...yet again.

    Around the same time the Costner movie came out, another movie came out too with Kurt Russell (Tombstone I think), have you seen that one?

  13. This is wonderful, Ciel. The blue shutters, door and trim are a very subtle blue hue, and finding a pair of blue bikes leaning there was a stroke of good fortune, or of genius, or of both! Nice.

  14. How charming and very romantic looking. I love that the bike color matches the doors.

  15. I love the cobblestone street...makes me think of a mall in Maryland who may have copied this now that I see it...very, very nice neighborhood. I wonder if there are yellow trimmed buildings nearby...

  26. Choosing a favorite part of town was surprisingly difficult for many of us at CDP!

    The is a beautiful shot. I love how the white wall just above the bike seems to glow with it's own internal light.

  28. Definitely has the makings of a postcard -- very lovely. The matching blues are terrific. Good eye!

  29. You illustrate today, as you show the world frequently, that there is much more to Versailles than a palace.
