And this is a beautiful house with a thatched roof, not far away from the village called Chipping Campden and below a copy of my previous comment:

The region of Cotswolds has 3 stars on the Green Guide of Michelin « Great Britain » and they are not mistaken.
In the Middle Age, the wool of the sheep on the surrounding hills has brought a prosperous business and the merchants have built houses with the local stone with colours of silver, cream and gold.
Chipping Campden is one of those charming villages with its main street built between the 14th and 17th century.
“Amongst the houses of High Street, many are opulent; however, more than the particular beauty of each of them, it is the harmony of the whole that impresses” (translation from the Green Guide)

Salut Estelle
Je ne dirais rien sur la netteté, j'ai regardé la date ;o))
Une très belle lumière bien captée qui donne de très bonnes couleurs et des textures superbes.
Du très bon boulot!!
Amicalement
Hervé
PS : c'est donc une légende qu'il pleut toujours en Angleterre!!

Hello Estelle,
I wish i would live in such a beautiful house.
I like your close look to the house, allowing to enjoy every detail and you have still managed to include the flower pillows in the foreground.
Well done
Bet regards
Romana

Bonjour Estelle,

Quelle belle maison, les pierres calcaires de taille sont magnifiques. C'est du solide. En plus le soin apporté aux toitures méritait le titre. Quel art! les couleurs sont très belles.

Bonne journée.

Hello Estelle.
This is a very appealing photo of a lovely old house. You captured it in a superb light and the careful composition places a nicely angled corner with flowers in the foreground. The sharpness is great and the colours look very natural.
I think I passed through quite a few villages in the Cotwolds about 12 years ago, but don't remember this one.
Regards,
Andrew

Hello Estelle!

Nice picture!
Best regards!

Salut Estelle

Encore une charmante composition. Elle a été rentabilisée la visite du village ;o)
Très bonne idée de présenter le toit de chaume, qui parle évidemment à la normande que je suis !
Le cadrage est très soigné avec ces jolies fleurs colorées en avant-plan.
Les couleurs sont douces et naturelles, bravo pour la réalisation.

Bon dimanche. A bientôt,
Karine

Ah ces anglais, ils sont chiants mais tellement so british !!!
je les adore...

Bises

Salut Estelle,

j'aime beaucoup cette photo!
The architecture is so nice and the photo so masterly shot, it surely deserve much more scores then it took.
Best compliments,
Donato

Hello Estelle,
Wow lovely house! you have captured beautifully it with an appropriate frontlighting. Chipping Campden in Cotswolds is very famous spot for also Japanese tourists.
Have a nice day, Hisashi
