A View From The Top
The village of Vivier Sur Rhone ("Vivier" for short) has so many beautiful vistas and scenes. Every turn of the corner brings on another breath taking view. At the top of a hill overlooking the "new town" stands the "old town" and a very old church and yard. From the stone wall surrounding the church you look down and across the old section of the city. This is a photo I took on December 30, 2008 at about 3:45 p.m.. I'm still using the point and shoot camera with the ISO set at 100 (with the overcast and mist below, it was best to use this lower setting with a longer time exposure (1/30 of a second with a maximum aperture value of F3.3). The main focus was on the town in the foreground so the hills in the background just drifted off.

No people. Just the village. Makes one stare and wonder what kind of sounds there were, what were the people doing, what thousands of lifestyles and moods are represented? All being guarded by the aged church tower.
Hey B, have you ever thought of making post cards. Your pics are inspirational. Tehy almost take me there!
