Thanks, John and Jeff. My sons and I just got back from Germany. The Kolner Dom (Cologne Cathedral) is a don't miss. Just happened on the wonderful light pouring in through the south windows, #11411703

That lighting is so exceptional in what it does for the picture and the beautiful look. The fact also that it is of more than one color adds that special touch that makes all pictures great. The two figures stand out beautifully and we get to enjoy the details. Outstanding Mary. #11412218

Thanks all. Winter trips to Europe feature short days, but exceptional light. This was shot in late November, when the sun is low in the sky all day and the light pours in through the south-facing windows. #11417841
