So finally the sun set.
Gosh all of this stuff is fantastic, what an exhibition..I really like the first picture with the figure in silhouette...
Incredibly dramatic and detailed.
Lovely pictures Ciel, especially that first shot.
A nice find, VDP. The second image is especially lovely.
Quite spectacular. These people really did believe they were more worthy and better than most folks, it appears!
This model did provide an opportunity to photograph this empty tomb from from interesting angles.
There's lots of drama in this series of pictures.
An impressive monument for the le Roi-Soleil...
Oh my! Incroyably dramatic images Ciel, brava! What an amazing exhibition this is.
It doesn't get any more elaborate than that! What a way to go!
You are right about that top photo op. Very dramatic!
Wow! So much detail... worthy of a king, I suppose. :)
I always learn something from you, cenotaph is a new word to me. A 1/5th model? Fascinating. How does one build such a thing to that level of detail?!
Love the details, Ciel. Whir marble is so beautiful!
