Photographer’s Note
Following on from yesterday's posting, here are some more black and white houses, though this time rather older - these are Tudor houses on Lower Bridge Street, Chester. The street is now a pedestrianised shopping street, the shops being in the two storeys below this. Chester is, I believe, unique in having this style of shopping arcades - known as 'the rows' because there are shops located on two levels, one at street level and another on the first storey accessible by steps.
I rotated the image a degree and cropped slightly just to respect the symmetry of this magnificent facade. Again, you will see that the sky can be blue in England! I have just noticed that I took this exactly a year ago... thankfully the sky was just as blue today in Switzerland :-)

Bonjour Susanna,
une architecture typique, c'est bien de nous la présenter au travers d'une superbe photo dans un excellent cadrage assez symétrique.
Un superbe vciel d'un bleu profond qui renforece encore les couleurs du batiment.
Netteté impeccable.
Très esthétique.
Best regards.
Daniel.

A blue sky always enhances a photo as well as knowing you are being provided with the best light. I remember last years summer to be as bad as this year so you were very lucky on your visit.
I love the way you have framed/cropped this shot to show perfect symmetry. Well done. Good note too.

Hi Susanna
Une imagfe qui ressemble à la Normandie. C'est classique mais c'est très bien fait.
Bravo pour le cadrage et le bon contraste.
Amicalement
