Have just got back from a few days in the Loire Valley, France. A lovely plave to visit with loads to photograph. But after going through all of my shots, this was the one that stood out as the pic of the bunch. Interested in your thoughts.

Could do with a touch of sharpen? and possibly cloning out the drain on the pathway... Other than that i can't find any other faults , its a nice image :)

Thanks all. Agree it could be a bit sharper in the tunnel pirate but probably going to struggle to recover it in pp. Will post a few more soon

Very nice image, like the golden tone on the stone work. Possibly just clone out the manhole cover.

Sure. A small town called Mountrichard, close to Amboise. Under the bridge obviously! the most photogenic Chateaux to visit is Chenonceau - just lovely.

Four great images - the middle two are stunning! And 1 + 4 are pretty damn good too!
