Bordeaux Alley

The image shows a narrow street in what appears to be the medieval quarter of Bordeaux France. A woman dressed in a coat and red hat is walking down the street, carrying a black handbag. There is a cafe with outdoor seating visible on one side of the street, where several chairs and tables are neatly placed, although no patrons are present. On the street, near the cafe, a couple of potted plants are placed, contributing to the charm and greenery of the scene. The architecture of the buildings suggests an old, historic area, providing a serene, almost empty ambiance. Captured with a digital medium format camera the detail and tonal range is exceptional.
