fin 12e - début 13e siècle.
Le château fort a bien sûr subi depuis de nombreuses modifications.

late 12th - early 13th century.
The castle has of course been modified many times since.

@Lorraine: Merci beaucoup, Lorraine, quel compliment !
J'ai du la retoucher sur photoshop, celle-ci, à cause d'un horrible drapeau sur le donjon et d'une horrible antenne tv sur la droite (on en voit juste la base dans les feuilles)
Le reste est "naturel".

Il faut qu'on interdit les drapeaux et les antennes sur des bâtiments comme ceci! Comment c'est possible! J'aime les lignes et les surfaces inclinantes avec la couronne au-dessus, très bien fait!

@Erik: Merci !
C'est vrai, c'est une solution, mais la maison avec l'antenne est habitée, et c'est déjà mieux qu'une parabole satellite... ;°)

Thanks so much, Amir.
As I said to Lorraine, I had to remove a banner and a tv antenna in photoshop, because this was a very good PoV...
Cheating, but for the cause.

Yes i was a very good idea to clone out the banner and tv antenna in photoshop. The angle is very good. Yes, it may not be exactly what the eye sees, but it is what the mind's eye saw. and that's what photography is all about. It is an art.

I plan to visit France one day

@Daniel Chen: Thanks for your very kind words.

You'd be most welcome to visit. Your camera would be on heavy duty.
As would mine, whenever I come to visit NY. (past the first day's frenzy on upwards perspective)
