[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
We were wandering through the town of Saint-Aignan (It is up the Cher River from the Loire) and came across this amazing sight. Someone has a quirky collection of household and garden utensils and implements all painted the same blue and hung on the house walls. Even the shutters and window sills have had the same treatment. As Christian pointed out the owner is also very patriotic with the other colours (red and white) being from the French tricolour. If you look behind the gate you can see the French flag.

Hello Ian,
Funny how some people can have fantasy. This one had an original idea by decorating the walls of his house with household utensils and this was really worth taking a picture. By the way, did you notice that the house was painted in the colours of the French flag ? If you didn't, the two flags at the entrance are there to remind you of it.
Nice shot anyway.
Christian
