I believe this Val d'Osne fountain was shipped out here from Paris to celebrate the anniversary of Launceston's municipal water system in 1858 (I think). It's quite pretty, more to come.
I took a photo of this a few weeks back. Got there in the early morning, and although the light was doing all sorts of interesting things couldn't quite get one that I was altogether happy with.

ReplyDeleteIt's actually a surprisingly difficult fountain to photograph. There's lots going on, but getting the "right" angle is a chore.
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoyed (or at least didn't hate!) your Lonny visit.
It definitely has that French look to it, looks great in B&W.
