Not the kind of shot I particularly like, since there is no concept nor unusual situation, but the beauty of this castle (Château de Chambord) just blows me away.

Lovely, Christophe. I love how, even when it's not your "style" you still manage to make the front page :-)

Incidentally, I do believe I've been here.

Lovely composition and tones to this photo. It would be easy to take this straight on and have less of a dynamic feel, but I'm glad you went for the angle.

Wow! Wish we had a scene like this in the U.S.! Gorgeous! Not the biggest fan of the composition, something really needs to warrant a squarish crop for me. I go back and forth though, because the texturing in the clouds really does add. hhmmm.

This is better than a postcard. Too bad about the ripples in the water, but this gets a 10 from me anyways.
