NF-SOOC-2017 - Day 5: Aerial view of Vieux Chinon...

...or at least, the view from the ramparts of the Château showing how the town is squeezed in between the high ground of the Château and the River Vienne below.

This is Day 5 in my annual NF-Sooc-September challenge: a month of sooc pictures taken with a 50mm lens or its equivalent for crop-sensor cameras. You can read all about it here - https://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/30294/nf-sooc-september-2017

For some reason, all of today's photos have a distinct blue colour cast even though the colour balance is set to auto as it always is... I shall try to sort it tomorrow.
Oh wow sure is squeezed

This is so striking!

So many houses together but each one looks a gem!
September 5th, 2017  
Remarkable...the houses line narrow streets, every house is different and the comprehensive network of lanes and alleys makes a Chinon a discovery time you go beyond the town's square.

Great capture. Wonder why they built houses so close together?
September 5th, 2017  
Goodness, they are all so close together! Steep roofs and all the same colours!

What a lovely view!
September 5th, 2017  
Wow...looks like tight quarters from up above. However, from street level, there are probably quaint streets and cobblestone alleys...charming!

A wonderful POV looking over all the angles of the roofs.

Great perspective and composition

Marvelous composition with all the diagonal lines contrasting with the rectangles
September 6th, 2017  
good composition

It's the blue hour, right?! Great PoV

Great capture and composition. I love the grey rooftops all huddled together.

Fabulous pov. I like how high positions help us to see things in a different way.

@domenicododaro I only wish it was but it was taken at 11h00...
September 6th, 2017  
Amazing!
September 6th, 2017  
Pleasing roofscape...like a model village...
September 6th, 2017  
Super capture of these rooftops.
September 6th, 2017  
A lovely view of the rooftops. Fav!! 😀
September 6th, 2017  
Great view.

The buildings are compacted tightly. No wonder the roads seem more like alleyways.

Great capture and view.
