Sully is the town in the Loire valley, France, with this beautiful
chateau. The lake is obviously stocked with fish as witnessed by this
angler with the long rod.
(Whenever I see people with such a long rod, I always wonder,
"why doesn't he just go round to the other side?")
This photo was taken in September 1989.

89? Oops.
But it's a beautiful photo...and very nice reflections.

Why Oops? I've been taking photos for 50 years! ;-)
It's scanned from a slide.
(The oldest photo I have up here so far is 1959!)

Can one easily get 'round to the other side? How large is the lake?

It's beautiful... the angler's jumper really adds to it!

EtterVor: Not very large, the Chateau stands about 50metres above the Loire, and so this was an artificial lake. IIRC, there was a bridge a few yards behind me, and we had walked up from the chateau.
