Photographer's Note
Roussillon ... but not in the Roussillon region!
A view of the picturesque village of Roussillon in the Luberon perched on the ocher hills.
But Roussillon is also the name of a region in the extreme south of France near the Spanish Catalan border ... so, here, it's Roussillon but Roussillon in Provence. A pretty village among the most beautiful in France.

Hi Jean
I must admit that when I first went to the south of France I did get a little confused by the 2 Roussillons but I've been to both and know the difference.
A good photo of the town showing off those colours that are drawn from the local soil.
cheers

Hi Jean
The tight cluster of hilltop village houses reminds me of some of Silvio's shots of Italian villages, although the one depicted here seems newer, more prosperous and in better condition. Good colour and sharpness. Tfs!

Bonjour Jean,
Bright daylight brought out wonderful colors upon the distinct sight of the town built on a goiant rock.
Sharp, well in contrast and over all view from yet a high POV.
Bon-weekend,
Ike

Hello Jean,
It's a beautiful view of the medieval village on top of a hill. I like the vivid colours and the contrasts of ocher tones and green vegetation under a blue sky.

Bonjour Jean,
Les arbres cadrent bien le village. La prise de vue permet de voir les détails des maisons et de l'église. La lumière fait ressortir les couleurs. Bonne journée.

Hi Jean,
Colourful view of this village on top of a hill. Ocher and rusty tones of terrain are surprisingly bright. And colours are repeated on the walls of houses.

Bonjour Jean,
C'est Roussillon dans le Luberon que j'ai visité il y a longtemps.
Magnifique panorama avec un joli contraste de couleurs entre les maisons du village et le cadre verdoyant. Au milieu de la verdure un nouveau fort contraste avec les falaises ocres.
Amitiés, Paul

Hello Jean,
I have to agree with you, this is a very pretty village. I know there is a list of the prettiest villages in France and I imagine this included.
The brightly coloured, cheerful houses are clustered at the top of the hill, surrounded by greenery, to create a beautiful setting.
The weather was very much to your advantage, creating a bright blue sky and burnishing the colours on the buildings.
My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hello Jean,
A beautiful view of the town. The orange tones of the houses and of the tall cliff are very appealing in this clear sunlight and the contrast with the green surroundings is wonderful.

Hi Jean
A peaceful shot of the old village perched above which steals the show along with so much of beautiful green foliage to finish off. Blue sky contrasts superbly- being one of the vital elements for landscape photography. Excellent
Best regards

We were there last summer, a pretty albeit touristy place, the surrounding ochre landscape is stunning in the late afternoon as you show us here. Lovely warm light and colours and a well composed image with the village off-center.

Hello Jean,
With a little imagination, that cliff looks like a dreadnought sailing through the forest.
