Lyon pictures

[Old Crank]

Sorry about so many. I was there for 6 days. Am really glad to shoot digital. Of course in many ways I was much more deliberate in my picture taking with film when each shot cost at least 50 cents, or more.

15. Thanks

We walked a lot. I was a fire inspector for quite a few years. I look up, down under and around.

5. Thank you. It's possible that's the only Gothic Cathedral we have not yet seen.

16. It is pretty nice

I have a few pics of the stained glass also.

24. That's my wife's weakness. It been her hobby for about 45 years .

She’s always working on a piece and planning for the next.

[Old Crank]

25. I've been interested in that hobby.

My MIL did a lot of it.
Hope she is using good ventilation.

Sorry about the glass bill.

[CurtEastPoint]

10. Thank you for these great photos, my dear Old Crank! Love 'em all.

I like what you've done with reflections and odd angles. And posting lots of photos is perfect for me! I will probably never get there, so this wonderful variety suits me very well.

[Old Crank]

20. Thanks

I try to change things up a bit. The skys weren't very good so cutting them out entirely made sense. The Cathedral one I tried becasue I have so many just straight verticals of them. It was 18mm, 24 mm full frame, and that is all I could get.

Plenty of children even in the cold.

13. Thank you, Old Crank

Beautiful pictures. Love that gorgeous, Cathedral, "Notre Damede Fourviere", impressive architecture. The play structure looked interesting,

too. I wonder if the parents there must sign a waiver gfor their children. Not that it looks very dangerous. Actually, my fist thought was I like

to go down that slide, at least once.

22. Here is Europe they allow the children to play

with a lot less direct supervision. Parents are near but the kids explore alond or with their friends.
If some one falls a parent will pick them up and see if they are okay. Usually bruised egos.
