Description
The historic Saint Pierre and Saint Paul districts of Bordeaux, France, are an absolute joy to explore. A warren of narrow cobblestone streets, lanes and alleys lead to and from delightful cafe filled squares with magnificent centrepiece fountains and no shortage of authentic French eateries. By day,the closely packed ancient buildings provide refuge from the blistering heat of the summer sun and by dusk, as daylight fades, the chatter of people enjoying French cuisine and local wine serve as a map, if you get lost, you just follow the voices back to a familiar spot. It's easy to lose track of time in a place like this, every street is a revelation with something new and yet old to focus on. I loved the turquoise doors and floral decorations of this street cafe facade, so inviting to the weary traveller. I blended textures with my original photograph in selective color to compliment this vintage old world French scene.
