Love this one.
Good use of tecnique.
Very clean image inspite of a long distance shot. For example the sky above the castle.
Good colors and very sharp focus.
Great reflection on the water as well.
Great work

Wow, this is such a lovely shot. It almost looks as if it is out of a fairytale book. Everything in it looks so neat and tidy and contrived. Amazing! Lovely too, CG.

What a beautiful home, wonder how many bathrooms they have? Like the panorama frame to who the vast size of this castle, very nice low sun exposure, focus and it looks like a royal home for sure.

Great looking shot!. Fine example of journalistic photography. Your shot appears to be perfect and you have captured the majesty of the castle very well.
Well done!

This is a fantastic place, and you have taken a very fine photo of it. Almost good the fountain was not in action, because then we probably would not have seen the great buildings.

Your photo is nice and sharp all the way through showing clear and well defined details, and it is nice to see that you managed to capture some reflections from the buildings as well. It is also a lovely soft and warm light in this photo.

Excellent POV enabled you to take all this in. This is a well taken photo with a good DOFF. I also like the format you have cropped this down to, and the image is nicely balanced in all respects.

Stunning panorama of the castle of Fountainebleau. Was there in the sixties and am certain that is hasn't changed one bit. Excellent colors, clarity and composition.

    many thanks marieann: only the number of tourists has changed, with thousands of noisy Chinese every day!

The name rings a bell. I think I visited this place many years ago when I was in Paris. Great panoramic view showing the elaborate castle. Just look at the water feature which is massive. Cost hundreds of thousands of pounds to construct, by today's standards. Beautifully framed with very good focus and DoF. Very pleasing image to view.
