Bakehouse in the snow Photo

Photographer’s Note

It's not very often, but sometimes it snows on the Cotentin. When it does, well.. this is what it looks like. The building is a bakehouse -- it houses an oven where the the bread for this farm family was baked.. probably not since the 1930s at the latest.. Probably built in the late 18th century.

Hi John, this is an excellent shot with an almost 3d quality to it. Cool colours and good composition here. It's a winner.
Congrats.

Une belle composition dans l'ensemble et une belle architecture.
La neige il en faut aussi ...un charme certain.

Beautiful scene but really nice use of the whole frame. Even the bleak sky is not so blah because of the pole and tree in the right top corner.

Bienvenu sur TE.
Un belle photo de neige; Je trouve l'atmosphère à lafois sombre et lumineuse en noir et blanc avec une pointe de bleu bien rendue. La composition est intéressante et le ciel magnifique.
J'aurai personnellement localisé cette image quelque part dansle massif central, en Auvergne par exemple.
J'attends d'autres clichés avec impatience.
