  3. Love how the focus is on the red roses while Notre Dame is out of focus in the background :)

  6. Not quite the center of the world, but definitely the center of France. On the Parvis Notre Dame, the square in front of the church, there is that sign from which all distances to and from Paris are measured. They call it the geographical center of France, which is, still geographically speaking, sheer nonsense.

  9. Hello Genie:
    It may be slightly perverse but we rather like to see roses as they go over when the petal colour tends to intensify.
