Weekend Reflections: ce satané coucher de soleil

I can't help showing it again. Here's that mid-January sunset, this time the equestrian statue of king Louis the 14th reflected in a window of his stables for James' Weekend Reflections.
-----------------------
Peux pas m'empêcher d'en mettre une petite dernière, cette fois c'est Louis XIV reflété dans ses écuries pour les Reflets du Weekend de James.

  12. Very nice all around. A statue, a brilliant sky and a purple window. Things are very colorful in Versailles.
