Frequently asked questions

Why this name romanes ? First, it is a shortcut to "Pierres Romanes", Romanesque stones, which has been shortened into Romanes.com. Romanesque art is closely linked to the stones because it is represented with it, at a time where God's house was built with stones (See the book "la Maison Dieu")

What do represent the logo ? The logo is a reduced picture of the one used on the Homepage between 2000-2002 presenting pictures from the Saintonge region where is Aulnay and its fantastic sculptures and the door from Benet.

I appreciate romanesque art and would like to do fome pictures, can you give me some advices ? L'art roman c'est l'art de la pierre avec celui de la lumière, la photographie en intérieur au flash est toujours terne car elle diminue le relief. Le trépied est l'outil nécessaire, il permet aussi de prendre son temps pour mieux préparer la prise de vue.
