I took this photo in Lourmarin, in the south of France.
Chipped paint, old wood, a rusty rain pipe, closed shutters …
… and two chairs waiting for their owners to come out when their siesta is over.
Perfect ingredients for a Provence picture.
And because of the blue paint it makes for a perfect Midweek Blues picture as well.
Play along with Midweek Blues. Post a picture with a little or a lot of blue in it and join the fun at the Dusty Cellar.

I really like this picture, Jientje. The word austere comes to my mind.
Been there for a bit but we didn't stay long. We sure did miss those chairs.
That was back when we spent our week in Provence.
Five nights of it were in St. Remy.

Two Chairs, "Waiting for Godot". Excellent.
Great photo...simple yet it says alot.
I just love those wonderful old textures. Beautiful.
I'd love to hear all the stories told over the years by the butts that sat in those chairs. ha
This picture causes me to wonder what the view is from the chairs. You know I really would like to have my sister paint one of your photos on my eat in area wall. Remember I asked you about that before. Mother, may I? What would that cost me?
Do you have the game Mother May I in Belgium? It's a children's game.
That is very cool and beautiful photo. Happy Wednesday!
Midweek Blues
Old world STYLE captured beautifully!
I love this Jientje for all those things you mention.
(Round The Bend)
the tone/hue of this photo is so lovely
and your composition is flawless
I would frame this and display it proudly :)
A perfect picture. For a minute I thought the image was taken in Malta. The architecture is so similar.
I particularly love this kind of photo - chipped paint, interesting windows and doors!
Perfect ingredients indeed.
When I'm away from my blog friends like I have been so frequently I forget how much I enjoy your pictures. You take pictures of things I would never think to snap. And they're always lovely.
WOW THAT IS A FABULOUS PICTURE! I LOVE IT! I wish I were there right now...and it isn't even mid week...! Love this picture!
I love all the details and colors in this.
Really really interesting! And yes, I like all the paint, rust, and wood textures. Fun to look at all the details!
This looks like my kind of place, Nice photo Jientje!
