French Vexin Regional Park 2/4: Themericourt Park House & Villarceaux Domain, hidden beauties of the deep France.

Well,well,well! I find you out!!! This is a part of France I have never heard of and it is BEAUTIFUL!!! Quiet, soft colors and with the most beautiful Myosotis (No.97).Very difficult to choose the ones I liked most, here is an attempt however: No.41 - the green tunnel is superb! Nos.57&65 -Quite new for me this idea of the mediaeval water gardens;No.60, the other castle and the pond;No.70,the Mirror's Pond - exquisite;No.75, image of the meadow brings in a fresh reinvigoratig feeling;Nos.80 to 89, all the interiors of the Villarceaux castle. If I go on I'll take too much of the guestbook space. It was such a pleasant surprise for me to find your album and to enjoy the quiet atmosphere of old architecture amid the colours of spring.My thanks and compliments as you try so hard and dedicate yourself so utterly to this awesome task of introducing captivating and interesting places of your country for the benefit and pleasure of us all! Your admiring friend from Japan, Gabriela

Hi Jacques! For sure you and Pierre are the best France guides that I know! My compliments for this visit and for the beautiful place that you show us! As usual the quality of shots is great and your comments complete them in the best way. In my opinion the best photos are 12, 18, 59 and the masterpiece 65. I like also close up and colors so I send you my applause for 9 and 92 plus 97 and 100. A GREAT album again ! CIAO from Italy !! Ruggero

Hi Jacques. Beautiful album! Love the quality of the photos. Since when are you using the powershot 3? I gather you did not use that one already in the album on Africa (remeber the little boy in the sand) France is beautiful. I love going there on holiday! Greetings Anna

Ho Jacques, quel régal cet album ! Et dire que c'est à deux pas de chez moi et que je n'y suis jamais allée ... lamentable de ma part. J'ai beaucoup aimé cet album, il fait rêver à une autre époque et j'ai l'impression que tu as découvert un espace hors du temps : Themericourt et Villarceaux sont des sites merveilleux ! Promis, un jour, j'irai visiter ce Vexin de nos aïeux ! Merci pour cette fabuleuse ballade qui m'a fait rêver ... Amitiés, Chantal (ps : j'ai reçu beaucoup d'invitations de ta part et je pars en déplacement demain matin ; ne t'impatiente pas si je ne peux répondre rapidement à ces invitations, mes moyens d'explorer webshots à l'hôtel où je vais sont "capricieux& quot; et mon PC portable un peu "nul" au niveau affichage => je ne voudrais pas gâcher le plaisir de regarder tes albums sur l'Inde en les regardant à la vitesse du RTC et à partir d'un écran nullos ... mais tu ne perds rien pour attendre !!!)

You're long experienced travel photographers and it's a great pleasure to me, that love to travel and try to make good photogrphs (not so skilled as you, though) browse through your so well captioned photos. For now I've browsed this and album number 10. They're both gorgeus, perhaps the second one even better for me. I'll keep on with all the others. Thank you. Ale :-) from Italy

Hello Jacques...Once again you have taken me on such an awesome "tour" of the "hidden beauties of deep Feance" with all these massive castles & the beautiful floral gardens..I'm truly enjoying my "travels" these past few days since you were selected aas "Featured Members of the Week" as it's given me the opportunity to view each one of your awesome albums..Thanks for sharing & God's Blessings from Texas...Ken

said bigdaddy8x14 2006.03.12 at 11:52:58 PST

My dear Jacques, thank you so much for yet another wonderful tour to this little hidden gem, and i say hidden because it's a part of France we didn't visit (we didn't even know about it). And don't be discouraged with the fact that none of your photos are among the Top Photos, or that this account of yours doesn't figure among the Interesting members list. No one can understand under which criteria those listings are made, so don't fret aout that. You are a wonderful photographer with a HUGE amount of friends and fans who just love your work, and who recognize it's imense quality, even if those who make those silly list don't seem to. And don't you let them make you thing otherwise. Once again, thank you for the wonderful tour, and wishes of a great weekend! Your inconditional fan, Marina.
