5 in 5 - MELANIE - June 2015

Melanie is my friend who lives in Australia and she loves photography. Every month Melanie has taken part in this monthly neme and we managed to find a way round her not having a blog by posting here. I love that we have found a way for her to take part! So over to you Melanie:

"So July 5th!  This month I am in France and on the fifth was travelling across the country from East to West.  on the fifth I was in Le Mans, not watching a car race but checking out the old town which is completely separate from the modern new town. My five minute photo shoot was taken outside and inside the 1,000 year old cathedral, St Julian's.  Such an impressive cathedral with beautiful stained glass windows all around it. My five photos are just a small time slot of many I took around the Cathedral area.  Before and after those photos I walked through some of the cobbled streets of the old town with its numerous medieval houses. A beautiful place to be on a beautiful summer day".



Melanie is returning to UK tomorrow and we are planning a trip to London on Friday.  It will be good to catch up again and hear more about all her travels.  Our days out are also providing me opportunity for another photography project I am involved in at the moment - A Summertime Picture Scavenger Hunt, organised by Rinda over at Gallo Organico.  It's not too late to join in, and I'll be sharing some of my photos here soon.  Mean while, a big thank you to Melanie for remembering and for taking the time to send me photos while on her travels..... last time in Africa, this time in France! I am full of gratitude.
 
If this has inspired you to pick up your camera and take part in this challenge you have until 25th before this months link closes.
It's great fun and this post should answer any questions or give other information that you need.  And you don't need to go anywhere exciting to take photos, as my own post this month shows.
  
To see this and more links for this month just go here and
 hopefully I'll be back with more photos from Melanie and myself next month. I hope you will join us and thanks for popping by!
