Church of Beaugency, a photo from Centre, Central

Photographer's Note

The Notre-Dame church of the late 11th century was rebuilt in the 17th century after the Wars of Religion. It has retained many characters of local Romanesque architecture
It housed the council in which the marriage of King Louis VII of France to Eleanor of Aquitaine was declared void. She then married the future king of England Henri Plantagen阾. The church became a parish during the Revolution.

Bonjour Didi,
It is good to see a new picture from you. I hope everything is well with you and yours. A lovely capture of this charming church, capture in a lovely, warm sunlight. The town and trees surround the church tower very nicely.

Bonsoir Didi,

Les arbres cadrent bien l'間lise. La prise de vue permet de voir les d閠ails de l'間lise Notre-Dame. La qualit� de la lumi鑢e embellit les couleurs de l'image. Bonne soir閑.

Bonjour Didi,

A fascinating note about this church which has, as you say, borne witness to some quite remarkable mediaeval historic events.

And here the tall tower of the church with its short spire stands boldly above the height of the surrounding buildings behind a delicate screen of trees still bare from winter and beautifully portrayed against a deep blue sky.

Beautiful!

Kind Regards,

John.

Salut Didi,
Content de revoir une de tes photos sur TE. Bien cadr閑 et mise en valeur cette 間lise avec son environnement, jolie luminosit� bien captur閑. C'閠ait la bonne saison pour prendre cette vue car avec les feuilles, une grande partie serait masqu閑, merci du partage.

Bonjour Didi,
Ce beau clocher carr� 閙erge des toits de la ville et des arbres encore nus dans un beau ciel bleu hivernal.
Amicalement

Salut Didi

The parked cars in front of the church provide scale. The bell tower is quite tall and solid. Good sharpness and wide angled view. Tfs!
