Mary K. Robison September 19, 2012

Well, I'm awfully slow on the uptake in finding this beautiful capture, Rey! Sorry!
Since I haven't seen a palace/museum/church recently, I'm as impressed as everyone else with the grandeur of the room. Wish I had a nickel --- make that a dime, due to inflation --- for every object splashed with gold in this room, and throughout the palace. ;-D
Excellent capture and composition!
