Bonsoir,
un post par an, cela ne fait effectivement pas beaucoup ;)
Mais l'important est de revenir.
Cette entrée de chateau est très belle, pour ce qui est de la photo, c'est le reflet qui est vraiment intéressant ici avec une composition verticale qui met en valeur l'ensemble.
Bon WE
Philippe

Hello fred,

nice vertical composition of architecture balanced by the arches of the bridge.
Great reflection.
Looks like a nice place to spend some time.

Hi Fred!
I love reflections and I've even created a theme on them, therefore, I couldn't resist and I had to comment on this beautiful photograph: natural and beautiful colors, good sharpness, excellent POV and composition, including very nice castle and bridge, both of them wonderfully reflected on the waters that pass by them!
TFS - Congratulations!

Fred,
Excellent composition and POV with the bushes in the foreground. The reflection adds nice depth and balance to the shot. The lighting and colors are great with excellent sharpness and detail. The bridge creates a nice diagonal through the shot creating nice direction.
TFS,
Asa

Hallo Fred!
A wonderful sight - caught in a wonderful photo. The inclusion of the foreground creates an incredible depth here. I like the strong contrast between all this green and the red brickwalls. This must be a special place...
Greetings from Germany - and have a nice weekend!
