Clic clac merci Kodak

Yesterday, working from home, I ran an errand at lunchtime. It was a grey and humid day and this was the scene in front of the palace. I had a bit of fun with the photo. You can see the palace in the background and the statue of Louis the 14th framed by Bernar Venet's massive work.

Hier, je télétravaillais et ai fait une course entre midi et deux. Voici une scène assez typique devant le château (avec la statue équestre de Louis XIV encadrée par l'oeuvre massive de Bernar Venet. Je me suis un peu amusée avec la photo...

  2. I love this one, Ciel. Very well composed, has the right icons in it, and there is something about the weather and the white sky that adds some mystery to it.

  4. Perfect frame job! I believe that Louis XIV is in a great pair of parentheses... rouge, bien sûr!

    Great shot with all the people.

    I wonder if Bernar likes twizzlers? ;-)

  15. Judging by the way people are dressed, it doesn't appear to be as hot there as it is in other parts of France.
