Bonjour Philippe

I like the splendid sunset colors, & graphism. The jet trails add surrealism. Bon travail!

Quelle belle lumière! Les formes naturelles du château si bien soulignées et le contrast presque fantaisiste des traces d'avion dans le ciel donnent une allure particulière à cette photo. Bien vu et bien saisi Philippe!

Light is beautiful giving the picture a lot of warmth, nice colour-tones too as well as this strong castle, nice "other" image, Philippe !

Superbe image, Philippe! Belle lumière et quel beau ciel comme arrière-plan. Bravo!

Great shot of the setting sun hitting the Chateau, don't like all the line from the jetliners in the sky but not much you can do about that.

Lovely colours and great warm tones.
Indeed a beautiful postcard

Well done!
yake care, Stef :))

Looks like a scene from 'Lord of the Rings', Beautifully captured Philippe. The contrast and colors sets the mood of this picture. Though you lost some details on the shadows but obviously this is the kind of effect you want to achieve. Congrats and thanks for sharing.

Bonjour Philippe,

J'ai toujours aimé les châteaux, quel merveilleux endroit.
J'aime bien cette couleur chaude de fin de journée, tu as aussi une belle netteté qui laisse voir beaucoup de détails.
Merci de partager.

hi Philippe,

Glad to see you here.
Tremendous light ... and those words are not enough for it .. my next instinct was to curse all the jet trails .. but you know on reflection I am not sure about that .. they create a sense of anachronism. .. but yet maybe it would be worth the hours to clone them all out. Wonderful image.

take care,

John
