This is really nice Su, the lighting from indoors adds such a warm glow to all the cold stone on the outside. #181496

Absolutely fantastic, Su!!
I love the exposure you used.
The light is rich and colorful, the dark areas, nicely detailed.
What a wonderful stone construction, it looks like a castle.
I expect to see a beautiful princess on the stairs and well dressed subjects awaiting her arrival.
Just another fabulous photo from you, Su

Su,
As I guess you know by now, this and many others are great shots you have on here. You have a good eye for creating beautiful images. I especially appreciate the European flavor; I only got there once and loved the architecture, the culture, people, all of it! Very nice gallery!
Congratulations to you!
