Le masque d' Annecy Photo

Photographer’s Note

Start from tomorrow until sunday (15-17 February 2008), there will be the Carnaval Venetien at Annecy, a beautiful city at Rhone Alpes, France. A carnaval worth to visit.

This picture was taken last year, one of the masques, infront of Place de l' Isle. The place was the primary residence of the Lord of Annecy as early as the 12th century, and later became the Count of Geneva’s administrative headquarters, then alternately a courthouse, the Mint, and finally a jail, from the Middle Ages until 1865 and once again during World War II. Saved from demolition because it is counted as historical monument, and now considered as one of the most photographed place in France.

Have a nice week end :)

Hi Cessy,
He he it seems to me that it's your turn now, I thing the weather will be on your side. You got this one using the right DoF to have her stand out and appreciate the background structures of the Palais de l'Isle at the same time, I like it.
Have a wonderful carnival week end JY

Excellent composition with an excellent DOF choice. Looks very magical, like in a dream or a fairy tale.

Belle photo de ce personnage masqué, jolies couleurs et bonne netteté de ce personnage et le flou externe renforce cette netteté et cette jolie lumière.

Amitiés Thomas
