Life in a lens
'La Cite' de Carcassonne
Posted by Sandrine (Cincinnati, United States) on 13 October 2007 in Architecture and Portfolio.
I was lucky to be at the right time at the right place... Just as the sun peaked through the menacing clouds...
Thanks for stopping by! I love to hear any of your thoughts...
Merci de votre visite! J'aime entendre toutes pensees...

First thing I noticed was how great the lighting is. You definitely caught this at a great moment, especially with those stormy clouds in the background.

That's such a big city, can you imagine how many points it's worth? I'd say at least 50.

Sometimes people get lucky, the great ones are simply patient. You still had to see the shot, compose it and take it. That being said, you're so lucky! ;)
Beautiful shot and setting, great post processing as well.

The light is amazing, with this deep dark sky !
Superb photo Sandrine but just a thought, avoiding the red roof on the right (more recent building?) would have make it Perfect. ;o)
