Ah, oui! Provence....le nom de la region me fait sourire, me fait rever des plaines, des fleurs, de la lavande!

@john: Really ? You are collecting santons ? But where do you find them ? Do you come to France ?

Avant de lire les commentaires je me demandais si c'était des santons, maintenant c'est confirmé.... Très belle scène!

@vu@granby - Wolfgang: Je suis tombé par hasard sur un musée qui expose des centaines de santons mis en scène dans un village provençal.

An intersting scene, I presume from a model. I agree with lots of the previous comments it's a very nice photo.

@grapf: I'm surprised by the result of this shot, taken with my cheapest lens : the Nikkor 50 f1.8 AFD.
@Ana Lúcia: Thanks for your regular comments.
@alun lambert: Thanks for stopping and commenting.
@om: The whole santon village loors real.
Laurent from Lyon, France
Un must cette photo!
Le sujet est très intéressant mais tu as su en plus la magnifier avec une exellente profondeur de champs.
L'éclairage est également très bon.
Une vraie réussite

@Laurent: Le 50 f1.8 m'étonne à chaque fois. On arrive à des choses étonnantes avec ce caillou en plastique qui ne paie pas de mine.
@Gromitch: Thanks a lot
@Bob Eddings: Santons are really a nice thing to shoot.
