Photographer's Note
Les lavoirs d'autrefois
Au lavoir, on lavait le linge sale au sens propre, certes ; mais aussi au sens figuré : c'était par excellence le lieu d'échange de potins et de palabres.
Les nouvelles, bonnes ou mauvaises s'y répandaient, les lavandières les répercutaient, parfois les amplifiaient, souvent les « embellissaient »...

Hello Philippe, Interesting to see the place where the laundry was washed years ago. One can see such washing in the river in some parts of the world, for instance in India or South America. A charming view of the river with some reflections.
Best regards Malgo

Hello Philippe,
It's interesting to see such an old "laundromat" still remaining. It must have been many years since anyone last used it. Maybe nowadays fishermen like to sit there. It's a well composed photo with fine colours and a nice view, but I think it's not quite as sharp as most of your photos.
Kind regards,
Gert

Philippe, washing machines didn t exist in the past. All the clothes were washed in the water of the river. That old building is a testimony of the past, it must not be demolished. Fine colors, good sharpness, amitié.

Bonjour Philippe,
La distance entre les deux rives donne de la profondeur à la composition. La prise de vue permet de voir les détails du lavoir. La lumière donne de belles teintes aux couleurs de l'image. Bonne journée.

Bonjour Philippe,
Old timer loundry-house was replaced by modernity.
Most probably it was also a social gathering for gossip, small talk and speading latest news around this rural town. Nicely collected the sight on the river bank's.
Good afternoon,
Ike

Bonjour Philippe,
The light looks very strong but you did well to achieve this photograph. It is nicely angled and clearly reveals how the wash house is situated close to the river, under the shade of the trees.
I saw a wash house, very similar to this in Pontrieux. It was possible to sail on the river to get close-up views. I'm sure you are right about it being the main source of gossip!
My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Bonsoir, mon ami Philippe,
Back to the old time, with the public wash booths .

You create a lovely detailed image.
Sharp and clear too.
Very well done, TFS.

Hi Philippe
An interesting photo of this old laundry quite a few of which remain in France for modern folks education. Not as sharp as you usually have your photos but it still works.
cheers

Bonjour Philippe,
A very nice capture of that small window at the edge of the river. It is nicely surrounded by brightly lit green trees. The reflections in the water are wonderful and very artistic too.

Bonjour Philippe,
Avez-vous une idée du temps écoulé depuis que la lessive a été faite dans ces endroits en France?
Au Portugal, dans les années 80, j'ai vu des femmes faire la lessive dans une rivière. Je ne l'ai jamais vu ailleurs en Europe. Ni de tels lavoirs comme ici ou comme vous avez montré auparavant.
Amicalement, Paul

Bonjour Philippe,
Here is a fascinating play of colours that arises between the yellow of the sun and the blue of the shadow and by the combination of reflection and reality.
Excellent presentation
Have a nice day, groet Rob

Hello Philippe
An interesting old laundry by the river. I wonder what they did when the river froze in winter? Lovely reflections with good sharpness and lighting. Tfs!

essas estruturas antigas parecem tão poéticas, mas em outros tempos esse deveria ser um local não muito limpo e calmo. Linda foto.
