Gargoyle's Dominion
Uploaded: May 11, 2015 | Entered: May 11, 2015 15:00:40
This view was taken at the top of the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, France. Gargoyle watching over the city with the river Seine down below and the Eiffel Tower in the background. The top of the Notre Dame Cathedral features a spiral staircase access of 350 steps up to where the Gargoyles are. It is an exhausting climb since you can't stop along the way to rest because of the people behind.

Amazing visual Rey! Thank you for going the full way to capture and share this view with us! Grand Prize it is! #11300642Terry Cervi May 11, 2015
Fantastic work, Reynaldo! #11300686Mary K. Robison May 11, 2015
Spectacular view and capture, Rey. Can't believe I never saw an entrance to the top, and in my "youth", I could've handled the climb. You saved me ever thinking about trying that (after I win the lottery) in the future. This is really worthy of the Grand Prize, as others have said. Fingers crossed that your exhaustion was worth it when the winners are announced next month. #11300707frank w. degenhardt May 11, 2015
This is a Grand Prize Winning view Reynaldo. The work getting to it is well worth it. The view is so spectacular and I love the pov with Gargoyle looking over the city. The depth with the tower in the background is amazing. This is top notch, fantastic work my friend. #11300712Amalia Sylvia Arriaga Salinas May 13, 2015

An amazing sight and capture Reynaldo! I am glad you did this climb while you were young enough, with my heart condition, I would have to pass on this climb! #11302178Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
