Artist's Description
There are many striking old world landmarks in the French city of Bordeaux. Among them is the iconic Grosse Cloche, an ancient bell tower built in the 15th century in the gothic architectural style. Proundly displayed on the city coat of arms, this beautifully preserved portal from the middle ages, served as an entrance to the old town and as a defensive fort along the city walls. It also had several practical uses, for example, in the event of a fire, the huge bell was sounded to alert the public, and believe it or not, the building was also used as a prison many years ago! I blended a little texture with my original blakc and white photograph to compliment the vintage feel of this historic French scene.
About Carol Japp
I'm a travel photographer and photo artist. I like to explore every nook and cranny of anywhere I visit and I'm always looking out for something unusual or unique, weird and wonderful, interesting and intriguing. For me, half the challenge is in the initial taking of the photo, the looking for something that catches my attention, getting that perfect composition, but the other half is in the processing, the tweaking and twisting and the addition of a little imagination to see how much detail I can bring to the surface and hopefully let the viewer see the same as I did when I took the shot. My images have been shot here, there and everywhere, mainly in the historic cities of Europe and with the occasional one taken in my own surroundings...
