Hello Wolf,
I am always surprised by these mountains of stones. This one, well known, is magnificent. You took a great shot on this great building. I regret the panels in front.
Bravo
Have a good day
Cordially

Ongelooflijk!
Weet je wat... we waren alle twee in Bayeux dezelfde dag! Ik was ook van plan een foto van de katedraal te tonen... en die is van 3 april om 13h50.
Jij hebt de hele katedraal in een enkel schot... t'is wel een beetje spijtig dat je ook die peilen hebt... maar toch goed gezien.

Hi Wolf,
This is a wonderful presentation of this absolutely incredible old building with very elaborate and striking architecture. I think the square formate works real well and the composition and detail is perfect. Great work and thanks for sharing. Gerald

Hi Wolf!
What a presentation of that cathedral!
OK, it is the Gothic architecture that is sharp, but your photo adds extra sharpness to it, almost like a razor blade, which i feel afraid of touching. Amzing the way you captured the whole building in a frame, and nice POV you have.
TFS,
Deniz

Wolf,

Fabulous capture of Bayeux Cathedral. The sharpness is pristine and your perspective corrections are perfect. I tried this same shot but from in front of the signpost and it is nowhere near as good as this shot. Well done.

Bonjour Wolf
It's the same point of view. We took ours pictures from the same place i think, but i didn't want to show the road signs.
I like the sharpeness in your photo till inside the church.
Congratulations.
Pascal

What a magnificent point of view. We can appreciate the whole beauty of the building. There is a 3D feeling that I like a lot. The DOF is perfect, giving a very clear and sharp image. Thanks for sharing!
