In March, I showed you the palace orangerie in its winter attire. Now, of course, the trees are outside! So here is a general view with the "Swiss" water in the background.--------------------------------
En mars, je vous montrais l'orangerie dans ses couleurs d'hiver. Maintenant, évidemment, les arbres sont de sortie, voici donc une vue générale avec la pièce d'eau des Suisses au second plan.
Very beautiful view!What a nice spring!

Looks almost too beautiful to be real... are you sure it's not a movie set left over from the filming of Marie Antoinette ? Hope all is well in Versailles !
ReplyDeleteTime to publish your own travel book on Varsaille. Fantastic photo - really amazing. (I'm adding it to my faves of CDP photos.)
ReplyDeleteWell composed and a great sight now that those trees have been brought back where they belong.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful composition, and scene.
ReplyDeleteWow! Whata difference between summer and winter! I like the summer version much better!
ReplyDeleteHow exquisite. No wonder the peasants resented them.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to beat that place. It's a-maze-ing!
ReplyDeleteAnother wonderful shot, Ciel! I like the panoramic view!
I really enjoyed the L'Orangerie. Your photo brings back great memories. Your photos was very artistic and shows the beauty of garden design in a formal manner. truly excellent photo for today!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic garden! And a marvelous photo!
ReplyDeletela vue est magnifique, elle fait penser a un immense labyrinthe.
ReplyDeleteWonderful composition of shapes and shades. Great interpretation of Le Nôtre by Ciel...
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, how artistic and very very attractive.
ReplyDeleteCertainement une des plus belles parties du chateau
ReplyDeleteJ'ai visité dans l'Ain le château St Bernard, qui fut quelques temps la demeure d'Utrillo et de Valadon. Le proprio actuel a aménagé un beau jardin labyrinthique, cela ressemble à cette orangerie de Versailles mais en trois dimensions
ReplyDelete:)
Et en plus petit il faut bien l'avouer !
PS : I'm back !
Ahh...this is astonishing. I love this view from above. It is great to appreciate the shapes better this way. The shades give it the final geometric touch.
ReplyDeletetu fais de la montgolfière ??
ReplyDeleteWOW! This is really impressive. I'd love to visit the Versailles some time.
ReplyDeleteMoi qui n'aime pas particulièrement les jardins à la française, je dois reconnaître que c'est magnifique, vu sous cet angle. Sur la pointe des pieds ? : )
ReplyDeleteSu-per-be! Et avec les ombres des arbres en pot, c'est encore mieux! On dit que la taille, ça défoule... Ici, on imagine sans peine le travail que cela demande...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteGreat angle, beautiful shot.
ReplyDeleteSo grand and beautiful. I would love to go there! Reminds me a bit of our Hampton Court Palace, but not on quite such a huge scale!
ReplyDeleteOh! This is so beautiful place! Excellent photo! I wish to visit this place!:)
ReplyDeleteA perfect angle, a perfect subject, and a perfect shot. Well done! I remembered the winter shot and I really liked it. This is beautiful, as well. What a lovely place.
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing what they did in those days! And a bit scary.
ReplyDeleteThis is a gorgeous place but the shadows make it all the more stunning. I'm impressed!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I am amazed, this building to winter these trees must be quite large.
ReplyDeleteFantastic shot! Absolutely beautiful!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, I love the pattern and the beautiful greens.
