Outside in ......

On my way back from my early morning walk - in the current temperatures the only time of day where walking is a pleasurable experience - I decided to have a closer look at the church. The Église St-Pierre is in the centre of the village, near to the Mairie and Salle des Fêtes.



I particularly wanted to look at the contrast of the stained glass windows, as viewed from the outside and the inside.










I love stained glass for the richness of the colours, the intricate, skilled workmanship and the story that it tells. The church is a very simple, but quite beautiful in it's simplicity and setting.


I wonder how this old chap lost his head?
