Magnifique édifice plein de charisme et très belle photo, bravo JC !!
Non, je ne reçois pas non plus les "ebots" pour avertir des images postées par mes favoris, mais personnellement, je n'utilise que la page "Notifications" de mon compte pour suivre les posts. Il y a quelques temps, Rendo avait l'intention de supprimer les ebots, ils avaient renoncé, mais peut-être veulent-ils les supprimer maintenant...
What a beautiful pov capture JC. Great info and love Abbey.
Lovely. I always marvel at the stonework/brickwork of the centuries-old constructions in Europe. The abbey's scalloped roof tiles are beautiful. Here in the US few appreciate "age" and developers are always ready to tear down and rebuild...a shallow history for a shallow people...
On peut admirer sur ta photo l'architecture du choeur, des absidioles et du clocher de cette très ancienne abbaye.........un très beau cadrage pour cette magnifique prise de vue, Jean-Claude !
