This week, WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge is Frame, and over at Ailsa’s blog, it’s all about History. So what better to do than frame history?

All carefully framed, and suitably historical too. Nice job, Sue!
Best wishes, Pete.
Thanks, Pete – all from a few years ago now
I’m a sucker for historical places. These framed shots are delightful.
Many thanks, Debi! I have always been interested in the history, of places and people…although I never studied it formally.
Wonderful frames, Sue! I love the jagged one which has several faces also looking at the view. 🙂
Glad you like these, Sylvia 😀
Very nice perspective on this one!
Thanks!
These are beautiful Sue!
Thank you, Nicole – glad you like these 😀
Oh, well done, Sue! 🙂 1 is mysterious, 2 is inviting and 3 is purely beautiful. Happy Sunday!
Thanks, Jo! The mysterious one only looks so because of my point of view….I was trying to take an unusual image!
That ‘elusive’ angle would have worked for Paula 🙂
Maybe….
Oh, and hope you are having a lovely Sunday!
Recovering! 🙂
Recovering??
Full on couple of days 🙂
Oh, good, as long as it’s nothing bad!
Lovely framing, I especially like the 3rd shot.
It was a bit of a hike to get up to this place, but I was determined to find some different angles!

Very precious post!
Glad you enjoyed it, Anna!
I don’t generally like responses to multiple challenges, Sue, but your photos meet the challenges perfectly and naturally.

Well, I do like an extra challenge, and if I can get images to make, as you say, a natural fit then I’m pleased with the result!

Love these frame photos! It is always fun to use your surroundings to form a frame of a photo.
I used to frame a lot, using trees, Windows etc, etc….
Fabulous, the Abbaye looks rugged and authentic, not too pristine like they often do.
It’s privately owned- I wonder if that has something to do with it? I found a similar lack of over-restoration at the wonderful privately owned Jervaulx abbey in Yorkshire, which I don’t think I have ever posted about.
Lovely images and perfect for both themes.
Many thanks, Miriam!
A lovely collection and such different frames.
Thanks, Meg! All taken on a visit to South West France some years ago…and wonderful pieces of history….
nicely framed history.
Thanks very much, Klara!
Framed history – nicely done as usual. I never studied history at uni, even if I like it. Something to regret.
Well, I didn’t either….and would have been most interested in some of it
I feel I get more and more interested the older I become.
You and me both..
You’ve nailed the both! It’s nice how shadows look like frames too.
many thanks, Paula …another Spam rescue! Glad you like these, and re: your comment on shadows as frames, it’s somethng I want to do more of. Tricky, as we often don’t get good shadows in this country, and if we do you can be sure it will be too hot for me to do anything! 😦
Yes, I can imagine. I am not a fan of heat either.
I have left a comment here yesterday that apparently went to spam. I wrote a post about it last night. I almost never leave a “like” without commenting – not on the blogs of bloggers I am in regular contact with.
I know, you are a good commenter, as I hope I am! I’ll take a look later…just off out, and WordPress is playing me up….
Yes, I just needed to let you know what happened with comments.
Nice framing of the scene!
Ah, I always used to look for frames where appropriate!
