Château de Luynes

Series of photos taken of Château de Luynes, originally constructed in 13th Century, in early April.

Black specs on the photos seem to be birds rather than dirt on camera

Luc said...: Very pretty pictures, Jim. Especially considering they were first taken in the 13th century ! The colors did not fade.; 20 April 2014 at 19:39
Jim's Loire said...: Luc. As you probably know Canon has long been ahead of the field. Digital helps to fix the colours but it was lucky to discover examples from the 13th Century.; 20 April 2014 at 21:03
