Another view from my window. It's reading time on our rooftop terrace. We're so close to the sky up there. The only shadows are cast by the chimney and TV antenna in very graphic lines.Encore une vue depuis ma fenêtre. Moment de lecture intense sur la terrasse sur le toit. Ici on est tout près du ciel. Seules la cheminée et l'antenne télé font de l'ombre - une ombre très graphique.

My baby turns fifteen today. What a delight she is!
Mon bébé a quinze ans aujourd'hui. Quel trésor elle est !
Happy Birthday to your baby, she looks charming. I envy you your great rooftop retreat. Have a good weekend.
She's the prettiest girl you can think of but she's frowning here both because of the sun and because she's reading a particularly stressful episode of Harry Potter's adventures.
Nathalie, In the portal the thumbnail reminded me of something very 18th-19th century. . .J.Austin on a rooftop in Italy or something. This is so beautiful and she is very much contemporary. A very happy birthday to her and congratulations to you. My baby is a couple years older and it amazes me how beautiful these young women are. Mine, too just finished the final HP book, and kept putting off reading the final chapter because it somehow seemed an end to childhood to finish the series, which she started on in 3rd grade and we read together as a family all through those years, first dad stealing the book and reading through it in 3 days, then all of us partner reading it :-). How quickly the years go. You have so much to celebrate! Enjoy the sun and each other!

(PS I posted my protests yesterday. Thank you for bringing this to all of our attentions.-K)
C'est normal qu'elle ne fasse rien, sauf de lire au soleil de Provence, c'est son anniversaire. Bonne Anniversaire à ton Bébé, Jolie Demoiselle !
Chère Nathalie J'essaye de te joindre depuis plusieurs jours sur ton adresse courriel, sans résultats, pourrais-tu me contacter au sujet de droits d'images, mon adresse courriel est la suivante: thierry.royls@leiner.at
Bien à toi,
Thierry
Your daughter is stunning, even with a frown. That sun on a rooftop sounds like just the ticket today, but we're not quite there yet. I'd love to sit there with you, Nathalie, and drink coffee, write haikus and chat.
BTW, your haiku (haikus don't have to fit the 5-7-5 I guess) was quite the hit, with other commenters, and with Inge and me. Great job. :)
Looks like a great place to chill out.
Beautiful composition with the shadowed antenna and chimney in the foreground contrasting with those on other rooftops in the distance.
Mon fils a quinze ans aussi... Mais c'est moi qui suis Poissons (18 mars). Longue vie aux aquariums et aux hychthyophiles !!!
You have posted some beautiful photos last days, that is remarkable. Good themes, good composition, and a chromatic balance very special. Congratulations.
I love all these 'aerial' shots. beautiful and reflective. The man with his violin is astoundingly beautiful. And to be able to hear him from your window...Aah.
Does she prefer to read in Feench or English.? I bet she is equally adept in both?
Happy birthday to your Baby ! (does she know you call her "baby"?).
Life looks quite nice in Avignon by now! Weather reports said 24°C there today. Is that right?
Very nice "baby", very nice terrace... and a very nice mother of course!
It seems that you really found a nice place to live!
C'est une belle photo d'anniversaire. Le voisin aurait pu lui jouer une petite musique. Bon anniversaire à cette toute jeune fille que cette nouvelle année soit pleine de bonnes choses pour elles.
Bises de Bretagne et kenavo
Il y a le sommet du mur et ce qui est au dessus : les toits et les antennes environnantes. Les autres.
Et ce qui est au dessous de cette ligne :
Un petit nid pour se tapir à l'abri du regard, sauf de celui de son proche entourage, sa tendre Moman.
Et, si je ne me trompe des meubles ikea. A tout âge et particulièrement lorsqu'il est tendre, l'on aime son confort
Le soleil et les ombres se rient des limites...
Ta puce et l'ainé de mes garçon, né en avance à 11H du soir un 12 mars, ont presque la même date d'anniversaire...
Pour lui, je pense chaque année aux paquerettes et au renouveau du printemps
A beautiful young lady. And she looks to be enjoying the sunshine. Nice photograph, Nathalie.
What a beautiful daughter, Nathalie. Well she had to be, being your daughter. Sorry I'm a day late but Happy Birthday to the the beautiful young lady.
I am a bit late too ,but a very sweet Happy 15th birthday to your daughter..
Ah mais cest vrai je peux parler Français ici,donc je recommence c'est mon gage puisque je suis en retard!!
Joyeux Anniversaire a une jolie jeune fille qui fait bien serieuse sur la photo..
Quelle chance de pouvoir lire au soleil a l'abri sur la terrasse!!
Sally she actually prefers reading in French. She only really started reading for her pleasure recently (during the February school holidays) and that was in French.
Thanks all for your kind wishes to the young lady.
Happy Birthday Nathalie's Baby. Sorry we're a bit late! Hope your day was wonderful.

Lorsque j'ai découvert cette photo, j'ai pensé d'abord au pont d'un bateau. Et à la réflexion cette terrasse a bien l'air de naviguer sur une mer de toits.
Une belle composition de lignes, avec personnage incrusté.
Oh, this takes me back to my days of revision and exams at that age.
What an ideal spot! What a (for me) nostalgic photo.
Tks for dropping in from time to time.. Glad you liked the river scene.
Jolie jeune fille! :)
Et ce soleil... mmmhhh....
La caresse et la douceur du soleil, un livre passionant. Le bonheur.
I love the idea of a roof top garden and roof top terrace.
Excellent photo.
