Abbaye de Trizay

I took the smaller roads back home from Rochefort this past summer, and stumbled upon a semi-ruin of a Cistercian abbey in Trizay, Vendée. There's always plenty of light (or at least some) at play in such places...

The abbey also holds art exhibits - I stumbled upon this bit of interplay:

And the whole premises was surrounded by an ocean of corn fields:

I have a feeling I'll get back there next summer...

Certainly worth the trip so far

Control of light

Those interior shots are superb - great exposure and excellent mono processing

Super find and super images.

Lovely shots but especially number 2.

They say photography is all about the light, and you have proved it here.

Thank you all, much appreciated.

Beautiful set, given me the inspiration to try mono on the Saxon/Norman Churches that i shot in colour 5 yrs ago.

There really is something about B&W isn't there? These images work so well. Lovely.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with Joe. And there is something indeed Kevin. Thank you both.
