Versailles, formerly the de facto capital of the kingdom of France, is now a wealthy suburb of Paris and is still an important administrative and judicial center. The city (commune) of Versailles, located in the western suburbs of Paris, 17.1 km. (10.6 miles) from the center of Paris, is the préfecture (capital) of the Yvelines département.
The population of the city according to 2004 estimates was 85,900 inhabitants, down from a peak of 94,145 inhabitants in 1975. Versailles is made world-famous by the Château de Versailles, from the forecourt of which the city has grown. |

I liked the low down side up angle you did on the manicured line of trees. Eva, you might like to get yourself a ND Grad filter. This would help toning down the bright sky when you are shooting landscape on a bright day.
