Isle Castle, a photo from Centre, Central

Photographer's Note

Castle of Isle in Saint Denis en ValrnThe construction of the castle began in 1530, at the initiative of the bailiff of Orleans Jacques Groslot, Chancellor of Marguerite de Navarre and owner of ﾎle aux Bourdons, a land isolated by the waters only during floods and located in the enclave of the parish of Ch馗y. In 1535, Groslot was authorized by the King of France Francis I to build a drawbridgernrnIn September 1866, the waters of the Loire in flood give up the levee to 150 meters of the castle which, already in bad state, is then largely destroyedrnAfter a long period of abandonment during which the ruins were considerably damaged, the rescue association of the Ch穰eau de l'Isle created in 2008 began an action to ensure the survival of the monument including through stabilization work and preservation ruins. The association acquires the castle on March 31, 2010

Bonjour, cher ami Didi,
Eh bien, il y a beaucoup de travail pour assurer une restauration du ch穰eau (quasi impossible, compte tenu du co皦 des travaux). Toutefois, la pr駸ervation du ch穰eau en l'騁at est une bonne chose.
L'image et le texte sont 馘ifiants.
Merci pour le partage.
Sinc鑽es amiti駸.

Hello Didi,
Fine presentation of these castle ruins, which still retain a charm all of their own with that beautiful brickwork. They are well placed in the frame, respecting the rule of thirds. Perfectly exposed with superb colours and clarity.

Hello, Didi!

The view of the old castle is great, and the light is very good, which gives beautiful warm colors to the image! The sky is also beautiful! Excellent sharpness too! Wonderful composition!

Bonjour Didi,

Les arbres cadrent bien le ch穰eau. La prise de vue permet de voir les d騁ails du ch穰eau de Isle en Saint-Denis. La qualit� de la lumi鑽e embellit les couleurs de l'image. Bonne journ馥.

Hello Didi,

Long time ago must this be, a wonderful castle.
Of course now, get almost a ruin.
An excellent perspective and depth picture.
This is real nice picture, also very successful.
Composition and presentation be pleasant.
Very well done, TFS.

Best regards
John

Bonjour Denis,

IL parait bien en facade ce reste de ch穰eau mais quand on l'observe de profil, il prend rapidement quelques rides. Quelle belle lumi鑽e qui le frappe de plein fouet.

Amicalement

Hi Didi
A pleasantly exposed shot bathing in warm angled sunlight depicting the beautiful ruin castle and well set off to the surroundings. Totally a well defined shot with excellent perspective, luxurious colours, immaculate detail, overall contrast and superb addition of the beautiful fluffy clouds. Just great, Congrats
Best regards

Ciao Didi
l'architettura � ridotta male, ma si vede bene che era molto interessante.
Le due torri hanno forme diverse, una quadrata e una cilindrica, doveva essere proprio bello.
Saluti
Carlo

Very tatsteful postcard landscape shot. Half destryed shape is so impressive but a little sad. Perfect framework and the best compaosition via so sharp color touch.

All the best and have a good day! Takero

Bonjour Didi,
What a beautiful castle, even from this distance we can see the beautiful details and patterns of the old walls clearly, the sharpness is superb. You also had such a pleasant warm sunlight here. Good composition with the castle placed on the right hand side.

Veuillez excuser mon retard Didi. Merci aux nouveaux conservateurs de cette jolie pi鐵e d'antiquit� qui ont trouv� le moyen d'arr黎er les affres du temps dans cette bulle pastorale qui englobe le souvenir de 1530. Une technique exemplaire illustre bien le travail d馗oratif admirable des ma輟ns de l'駱oque. Salamalecs.

Bonjour, mon ami Didi

I like the diamond patterns visible in the ruined castle, and the superb warm cold color contrasts between the red brick facade and blue sky. Good sharpness and framing too. Tfs!

Hello Didi.
Interesting note on the history of this castle, which nowadays looks in ruins, interesting remains with part of a round tower and another square, interesting also the drawing in diamonds of the bricks, great sky that is a good complement.
Well done. I like.
You have a good day.
Very best regards
Luis.

mcmtanyel (69227) 2017-11-15 20:04

Hello Didi,
Even the ruins of the castle look majestic. That lone tree in the front renders the scene even prettier. Combination of green, red and blue looks pleasing to the eye. I also like the tone and angle of the light.
Regards,
MT

Bonsoir Didi,
Les ruines du ch穰eau sont joliment pas plac馥s au centre de l'image.
L'arbre et son ombre fournissent un 駘駑ent agr饌ble au premier plan. Bien que l'arbre soit devant le b穰iment il entrave rien de la vue.
Un beau fond de nuages.
Amicalement, Paul

Bonjour, mon ami Didi,
avec cet efficient cadrage tu as mis bien en valeur la beaut� de cette architecture du ch穰eau, bien qu'elle soit en assez mal 騁at.
Ses vieilles pierres sous une basse lumi鑽e du soleil nous offrent un bon contraste en relation avec le paysage vert et le ciel bleu.
Belle composition.
Bien amicalement,
Pili et Josep
