Entering Lourdes, France...

Lourdes is a small market town lying in the foothills of the Pyrenees, famous for the Marian Apparitions of Our Lady of Lourdes that are reported to have occurred in 1858 to Bernadette Soubirous. At that time, the most prominent feature of the town was the fortified castle that rises up from a rocky escarpment at its centre.

 

All images on this set was taken by Patrick Cheah. I only did the post processing part.

A selection of Patrick's images will appear on my stream this week while I take a short break. You will surely find them interesting and compelling as much as I do. Hope you will enjoy my selection as I post them in stages. Mr Cheah has graciously allowed me to showcase some of his shots for public viewing at my discretion.

 

Thank you all again for following my stream and I apologise that I am unable to keep up with so many kind comments.
