behind the shutters

There's a quiet and secluded little Moravian village, a few miles from where I live

I went there early this morning when most of it's inhabitants were still asleep.

Although this is not a particularly creative image it nevertheless represents the peacefulness I found there.

"Je n'ai pas oubile, voisine de la ville,
Notre blanche maison, petite mais tranquille"

Baudelaire
