Oh Sharon, what gorgeous images for me to start my day with!! I'm so glad you shared these! I do love the light and composition in them. Are the bright yellow fields of flowers rape seed? I remember seeing those when we visited England years ago.
I can see why you love living in Normandy; I'd certainly love to visit there someday. Have a wonderful weekend!
Denise
Just beautiful Sharon……have a lovely weekend!
Sophia
Beautiful! The light certainly was captured to create such stunning images.
Where you live is so gorgeous. just Beautiful! I can feel fresh and misty air from those photos. Thanks 🙂
Your photographs are so beautiful, it makes me want to come through the computer and join you on a walk!
You are one of my regular morning sites that helps me for day. So, thank you!

No matter where you are in this world Paris, California, Canada, North Carolina…there's beauty everywhere. I'm glad you just shared your world with us Sharon. It's all good! Have a great weekend! (These pictures look like my community)
Rita
Such lovely countryside! Here on the Central Coast of California, the hills have already turned golden and we should reach 100 degrees tomorrow. I'm with the two folks above; would that I could come through the computer and enjoy such scenery myself!
I think you have a wonderful eye for composition. Thanks for sharing the beauty around your home.
Suzanne

Babi

Life is good!
I've so enjoying reading your blog! These photos are fabulous and very beautiful. Oh my – I'd never want to go indoors with surroundings like these! ::Jill
Gorgeous!
Gorgeous photos! – Thank you for sharing!
How I wish that I could jump in there, Sharon. We have had the worst "Spring" in memory in Provence–I am wrapped in a sweater as I type!
And I love your new header with its handsome model looking in to the light just so… 😉
Mother Nature……… she is a worldwide beauty. Thanks for sharing her vision from you neighbourhood. Enjoy the weekend.
oh yes it was a wonderful break.
So nice quiet country setting.
The fresh green grass … then spring feels.
I wish you a nice 1 Weekend in June!
Greetings, Moni
Hello Sharon … I recently spent 10 days in the Limousin region where we have a little house – in Boussac to be precise. We live in Australia and try to get here twice a year. May is the most beautiful month I agree – the green is iridescent and the mustard yellow painted over the fields – Your photos are beautiful… thank you! Jenny of The Lime Walk
A wonderful blog.
Great shots, a beautiful house in a lush setting.
Kind regards and a nice weekend,

You have shared so much with us, the animals, the open fields, and scenery, and a little insight into the family. All lovely. I have started to look at things through a photographer's eye, not that I am good at it, only that I am starting to view everything I see that way. Have a good weekend.
I never tire of your beautiful images. Your posts always brighten my day and reinforce may love of France.
Bon week-end
Keep on taking these pictures.
thank you Denise, yes, the yellow fields are rape seed. It's grown a lot here, the oil is used as an eco fuel for our local bus service!

Thank you Sophia, I know that your part of the world is looking pretty good too at this time of year!
xx
thank you Kellie, the light is such a fleeting element, that's why I've learnt to take pictures straight away, rather than say I'll come back this way later
xx
thank you Ayu
a bloggers walk around the forest,.. now that could be fun!
xx
exactly Rita, it's all about seeing the beauty around us

Such gorgeous pastoral images. I can't help but contrast them to the ruggedness that is our landscape when out of the city. Both are beautiful. The gentleness of the hills, the shifting colors of plant life – your images illustrate calmness and peace. Bon weekend.
thank you Jennifer, I'm sure that it must be beautiful in California at the moment
xx
thank you Suzanne, I just point and shoot!

YOU know Babi, it rained a lot here in May, very weird, so that's why I took photos as soon as the sun shined
xx
thank you Marilyn
You too Ria
xx
yes Noelle, life is good, even in the difficult moments it's possible to find something worhtwhile
xx
thank you Jill, it's certainly easy to spend time outside here

I love looking at the country side it is so beautiful. You take gorgeous photo's. Hugs, Pearl
Your photos make me sigh…..just lovely countryside.
Your photos transport me to another time and place…for a short respite of 'real life.' Thank you for giving me visions that take me away.

Stunningly beautiful photographs—you are a very lucky girl!

Thank you for hitting the publish button. I thoroughly enjoy reading all your posts, though I usually do not comment. Beautiful pictures of a countryside that has seen so much of history and mankind, pass through with use and of wars. Always accepting, yet mindful of the past, turning and growing for another season. This is what I see, history and now. Patty/BC
sharing is my pleasure Bente

Us too Heather, May has literally been a wash-out, except for a few brief interludes of sunshine
have a nice weekend, apparently the sunshine is on its way

So wonderful! I think that my favorite blogs are those of us "full of wonder"!
Aren't we so lucky to find each other??!!
I feel profoundly lucky to find people who are "full of wonder"!
I used to think everyone was!
NO!

"What a beautiful day; what a beautiful view! what a wonderful life!!"
Bravo!
and continue!!

Spring is my favourite season and you have captured your local countryside.
Continue coming to those screeching halts when you see a view

Beautiful & peaceful way to start the month of June. Thank you Sharon xo
These are breathtaking and I can't wait to see France myself in September.
Beautiful photos. I always have my camera with me also!
Thank you for sharing such beautiful photos
of your surroundings with us so far away.
Oh my…to live in the French countryside…what a dream:-)
What are those fields of bright yellow flowers? We were in France in May several years ago and we loved seeing those fields on our train ride from Paris to Strasbourg. Would love to know what it is.
Thanks,
Claudia
