Palais des Papes, AvignonAfter the parade the aviators, gliders and riders of amazing machines take a break at the Popes' Palace door. Après la parade, les fous volants dans leurs drôles de machines font la pause au pied du palais des papes.
Bonjour! Nathalie... The first word that came to mind...upon viewing your beautiful photograph(s) is very...Steam-punkish. [Steam-punk is a genre that I have just discovered...too!] Merci, deedee ;-D
As I scrolled down I thought each one my favorite but now......... I'm loving the bottom left, but then..... ;) They are each just marvelous in their own way, dear N. NON, I"m going with the bottom left. Masterful composition. V
A unique array of subjects for portraiture! I really love the golden backgrounds (perhaps a late afternoon sun reflecting off the stonework) for their pensive and restful poses after the performances in the parade. Perhaps still dreaming of flight...

ReplyDeleteQu'est-ce que c'est bien l'immobilité du sujet pour un photographe !
ReplyDeletebelle tonalite dans tes photos, la troisieme photo , je trouve que la pose a un cote Buster Keaton
ReplyDeleteLa lumière les paye en or.
ReplyDeleteLa lumière sur les vieilles pierres offre un arrière plan en parfaite harmonie avec les personnages et leurs supports.
ReplyDeleteSuperbes photos !
Your second shot -- the aviator close-up -- and the next one are just wonderful.
