Abbaye de Jumièges

Abbaye de Jumièges
Just one of the splendours of the Jumièges Abbey ruins. This was a Benedictine monastery, founded in 645 and rebuilt by the Duke of Normady in 942. Here we are looking down the nave to the choir of the abbey church.
see PiP + Deserves full screen viewing!

Thanks Nick. This was a fabulous place to explore. Not only great history, going back to the early Normans and beyond but also a happy snappers paradise. Again too many to choose from to put on here but happy you like this one. ~ Herb

Without doubt, one of the most impressive Christian religious ruins we have ever seen Dany. Hope you got a glimpse of the PiP too. Cheers, Herb

Gorgeous architecture, and perspective, Herb. The 2 figures at the end accentuate the grandeur of the abbey.

Thanks for another visit Keith. A job to get exposures right in a situation like this hence a touch of HDR. Glad you think it is 'balanced'

Hi Herb

I like it a lot!
It reminds me of a set you did at Valle Crucis by Llangollen.
Technically perfect as ever!

Best Wishes

Thanks a lot Peter. Yes, a similar building but on quite a difference scale here. Very happy that you managed to compare them both. Great comment!
