Shelly- Incredible beauty my friend. I have always loved when pictures like this are posted. I so enjoy being walked down the long corridor, and as we walk we are treated to some of the most amazing designs of arches, windows, columns. The textures and stonework so amazing. In this one I especially love that ceiling.
Phenominal work my friend.
Have a wonderful day, take care. #8411485
