Backstreet Breton Cottage

I've spent the past few weeks refurbishing a rental property that we own in a neigbouring town and each day my journey takes me past this little backstreet cottage. And each time I pass by a little voice whispers in my ear - 365... so I finally stopped and obeyed the whispered voice!

There is nothing remarkable about this little cottage (except perhaps for its rather fine inner courtyard with a stone built fireplace which hints at some craftsman type activity in the past) but I've enjoyed seeing it everyday... and now you can too ;-)

Nice capture. Good composition. I too love the crooked beam and the red touches make it pop. The small gardens and flowers add to it's charm.
