….Macro shots from my walk in Tours yesterday






…..Happy Easter everyone

….I know there are bigger trees in the world
This Lebanese pine is growing in the middle of the city in Tours, France. It sits on the grounds of the Musée des Beaux Arts. It is so large that some of the lower branches have to be held up with upright logs that have been secured to the ground.



…..thanks to Lens Artist Challenge for the Bokeh challenge https://photographias.wordpress.com/2022/04/09/lens-artists-challenge-bokeh/
Bokeh means blurring and a photo with the main subject in focus and the background blurred is an example of Bokeh.
Today I practised this technique at the gardens of the Chateau Royal in Amboise.







….so pretty and too tempting
If you wondered if the French celebrated Easter it wouldn’t take long to find your answer. Pretty much every store displayed some kind of Easter decorations and all the patisseries prominently displayed the most beautiful Easter edibles.
