  4. And I can almost imagine a reflection of Marie Antoinette's dress there somewhere, must be an echo still floating about there ...

  6. The second photo especially is very inviting. I am imagining an almost impossibly blue sky that befits a king.

  26. J'aime beaucoup tes photos du grand Trianon, desert, dans la douce lumière d'automne..Les reflets sont doux, berceau ideal pour les angelots, et la sensation d'abandon donnée par les algues flottantes donne un sentiment de mélancolie.

  27. The blue of the sky turns to so deep and dark in the water. I like the feeling of the sculpture. Those two kids in a small raft, it´s so real.

  28. Nice reflection shots! :-)

  29. Now, that is a place I would have like to see!

  30. I like the structure created by the algal blobs floating near the surface...but I suspect the water could do with a little cleaning :)
