Old Street in Dinan (France)

Rue du Jerzual in Dinan (Brittany, France)
Dinan in northeastern Brittany is a wonderful and romantic medieval city.
The little medieval town (population about 11,700) on the hilltop above the Rance River has many fine old half timbered buildings dating from the 13th - 16th centuries, with cobbled rambling streets, all carefully restored and preserved.
The town retains a large section of the city walls, part of which can be walked around.

Rue du Jerzual in Dinan (Bretagne, Frankrijk)
Dinan ligt het noordoosten van Bretagne, ruim 30 km zuidelijk van Saint Malo.
Het prachtige en romantische middeleeuwse stadje (bevolking ongeveer 11.700) ligt op een heuvel boven de rivier de Rance. Het oude centrum van de stad is omgeven door een middeleeuwse stadsmuur met poorten. In het centrum en langs de met keitjes geplaveide straten zijn nog veel vakwerkhuizen uit de 13e tot 16e eeuw te vinden.
Rue du Jerzual in Dinan is de door touristen drukst bezochte en meest gefotografeerde straat van Bretagne. Het schilderachtige straatje loopt hier steil naar beneden naar de rivier de Rance. Door een regenbui, kort voor deze opname, was er niemand op straat.

    Dit lijkt wel een straatje waar de tijd honderden jaren stil is blijven staan.
    Schitterende compositie, mooie sepia tinten, heel mooi licht.

    Wat een mooi schilderachtig straatje in een fraaie compositie gefotografeerd.
    De (sepia)kleuren, de natte straat en het licht zijn fantastisch.
