Our home sweet home!

I'm on theme! Wowwww :-) This weeks theme on TwoPeas is "home sweet home" and there are a million things to take pictures of for this, but I chose to actually shoot the home itself. IN its surroundings. OK, I admit, I am just showing of our beautiful BLUE sky, it is february but looks like summer! (a little cold for summer, but still...) I promise this picture was taken today!! Our home sweet home is the one under the arrow, obviously :-)

This beautiful weather, that I have been longing for for quite a while, IS actually showing me that having light doesn't actually mean that good photography is easier! Shadows, overexposure, silhouettes (that were not meant to be)... got them all! Wow, the sun will allow me to learn so much!

TFL!

January 17

My contribution for today! I am kind of hoping this can count for "Texture", as I try to do

the challenge but this is a hard one! What do you think? Just a staircase, in the same village I showed in my post from yesterday (go take a look at where I live, if you haven't had a chance yesterday! post below) I love all the stone! Thank you for all your comments yesterday, I do realise I'm lucky to live here (although there are of course also desadvantages!) I hope to show you a lot more of my beautiful area!

January 16 - our neighbour village

Ooooh, I missed a day! :-( I hope to make up for that today by posting several photos, I took the kids to our neighbour village for a walk and some pictures and thought I'd show you some, so that you can see what France looks like, or at least, the part of France I live in.

First a little overview of what you see when you're at the entrance of the village. It's an old, stone village, quite cute actually. And a closer look at what I think must be main street, or one of them :-)
Just outside the village I saw this "barrage" in a tiny stream, I'm not really sure how to call this. It might be where the women washed the clothes, once upon a time? (not sure at all!)

Next is just a cute spot in the village, I imagine it looks better in summer, with flowers, but isn't that true for almost anywhere?
And the last picture is one of a tree with red flowerish things in it, I was so happy to see some colour in a tree ;-)

Thanks for looking, I hope you liked the little I show you of my part of the world :-)
