Fields of French Poppies
Yes, they exist, just as in an Impressionist painting! We stopped to photograph these on the road to Giverny from our village in Picardy.

French Garden Symmetry
We've just returned from touring Picardy and Normandy in France, as well as visiting Paris. Beautiful weather, incredible gardens and wonderful people. Here is a sneak peek of the stunning terraced gardens at Chateau de Brecy.
Elements of French and Italian garden styles create interesting views from every angle.
It was a challenge finding the chateau, even though it is just off the main road to Bayeux. Even locals in the village two miles away hadn't seemed to have heard of it!
The full collection of images will be posted in the library soon. In the meantime, do contact us for more information.
