Memories of Burgundy / Erinnerungen an Burgund

Tried to capture the spider as he crawled to the front, but I was too slow. You can just see his legs out the side.

Spotted these gorgeous Peony Tulips at the Spring Tulip Festival. I'm really partial to this deep red one, it really stood out. Happy new week my friends, enjoy =).

I cannot believe I have not been to Cluny or Burgundy since 2018. In the nineteen eighties we had holiday in Burgundy every year. Staying in a little hamlet called Sommere that was half way between Macon and Cluny . It remains my favourite area of France . My new year resolution for 2022 is to return to France, you can keep all the exotic long haul stuff, I dream of sitting outside a French cafe in a quiet square taking a demitasse of coffee . Followed by a visit to a local boulangerie to buy fresh bread and pain au chocolate. We do have one more English Holiday booked in May in Sussex I hope it's my last British holiday for some time . Holidays are not the same when you do not have to use another language

 

In France many historic monasteries and abbeys are intact unlike in England where most of the them were destroyed during the reformation .Cluny Abbey is an exception it was heavily damaged in the French revolution . Cluny is a small town in the Mâconnais region of Burgundy. It is odd to think that until the building of St Peters in Rome in mid fifteenth century it had the largest church in Europe .

 

The abbey was constructed in the Romanesque architectural style, with three churches built in succession from the 4th to the early 12th centuries. Cluny was founded by William I, Duke of Aquitaine in 910. The abbey was notable for its stricter adherence to the Rule of St. Benedict, whereby Cluny became acknowledged as the leader of western monasticism. Sister abbeys to Cluny spread throughout Europe , there were 22 linked priories just in England

I WOULD BE VERY GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD NOT FAVE A PHOTO WITHOUT ALSO LEAVING A COMMENT .

 

A small group of them were only ones I saw that day. I am sure by next week Enchanted forest will be covered.

Another view of this wonderful burgundy Magnolia flower. I still haven't quite managed to capture its real depth of colour, but I'm getting close. It still looks beautiful, this time lit from behind me.

 

Happy Bokeh Wednesday!

This amazing deep burgundy Magnolia is growing in one of our neighbour's gardens. I think it is the darkest red I have seen in a Magnolia. Even here, I have used 3 stops of exposure compensation in camera to darken down the shot, and it still doesn't quite show the depth of colour. I think I want one now! (a Magnolia - not a burgundy.....although.....:))

After years of trying to find these little beauties my luck changed. A fantastic afternoon spent at Prestbury Hill.

 

Thank you to everybody that views, comments and for favouring my images. Always greatly appreciated.
