Little Versailles Photo

Photographer’s Note

Near Lisbon there is a Palace at the little village of Queluz that it is a copy of Versailles so we learn. THe architecture style of the palace and gardens is very similar of Versailles. We learn there that the Portuguese King decide to let it build after a visit to the French King at Versailles. We love to visit it.

I would not say it is a copy because is much smaller and less rich. However, we can say it is of similar style in many regards, including the gardens.
It is a very nice picture with good composition and natural colours. Well done.

That's a very nice palace but is located out of Lisbon which is not easy to reach if you do not have a private car. I liked your PoV. Did you enter inside of the Palace?

Best regards, Tolga

OK, unlike "Peachtree Eiland", here we have a monument that is in good conditions.
I guess it is also used as an official residence for foreign Presidents or Kings (or Queens) when they are in official visit to Portugal.
It seems you had a strong light. Anyway, you got a nice, pleasant picture.
Greetings,
Francisco
