The Porte de Paris, one of two remaining medieval gates (out of four) standing in the town of Villeneuve-sur-Lot.

The high square towers rise above the gates to the north-east and south-west of the town and are known respectively as the Porte de Paris (formerly known as Porte de Monflanquin) and Porte de Pujols. The gates, which date from the 13th and 14th century, are the sole remains of the town's former fortifications.

As can be seen the Porte de Paris now maintains a silent guard over one of the main shopping streets. The picture being taken on a Sunday morning and this being France, shops are closed and visitors are confined to window shopping.

Hello Stephen,
A good relaxing Sunday morning, the best time to take a photo like this.
We can also stroll along looking at the coloured shop fronts. The tower and archway are impressive.

Regards
Robert

Have a good Sunday

Hi Stephen

Good use of diminishing linear perspective & lead in lines, with the tiled street. Excellent colour & sharpness. Bon Dimanche!

Hi Stephen,
Splendid shot from this beautiful place with attractive vertical composition. The architectural details are spectacular and the perspective is great. Beautiful shot, Very well done! Have a nice Sunday

Witaj Stephen!

Bonjour Stephen,
Belle perspective urbaine, à la fois moderne et historique. Un peu de pub de chaque côté pour se distraire et arriver à cette porte, bien conservée. Une image vivante, très nette et colorée naturellement. Un beau travail.
Bon dimanche
Cordialement
Joël

WOW! This is so cool!!! Very unique architecture and I also love the clock. The people of this town must be so proud of this. A very good picture, the buildings along the street are also very nice. TFS

Stephen,
This is a nice shot of this old city gate. Your composition and POV are fine using the street and buildings to lead the eye to the gate. The lighting and colors are great with nice sharpness and detail. The deep blue sky provides a nice backdrop for the tower.
TFS,
Asa

Hello Stephen. A small road and a salient tower with passage. Here one sees that the old cities have their structural attraction. Exemplary photographs. Worth seeing, - and exemplary text. Best regards, Wolfgang.

Hi Stephen,
Lovely vertical presentation of this peaceful narrow avenue.
Very nice soft early day light brings out beautifully clear colors, soothing shadows and excellent sharpness.
Regards, Tom

Hello Stephen,

Ici, trop d'élément sont dérangeants pour que l'image soit vraiment attrayante.
Les enseigne sont trop nombreuse et occultent presque la tour qui est le sujet de l'image. Il y a, certes, une perspective mais elle est cassés par les éléments trop nombreux qui viennent détruire la compo.
Pour moi, cela ne colle pas.

A+
