Ailsa’s travel theme this week on Where’s my Back Pack is: Leading Lines
I took this shot in Basilique de Saint Sauveur in Dinan, France. The end of the pews was perfectly lit by the light through the door. This is an exterior shot …
The construction of this Church was commissioned around 1120 by the Lord of Dinan, on returning home from the first Crusade, as his appreciation for a safe return.
The church underwent repairs and additions during the15th and 16th centuries.
I leave you with one of my watercolours on the theme of Leading Lines …
Gentle on my Mind – watercolour by Lynne Ayers

Spend time gawking at the wonderful architecture, the stained glass, the ceiling … and then turn around and see something so simple but, a great shot. Thanks, Naomi.
