Bonjour, cher ami Serge,
Avec un ciel pareil certains peintres doivent manger leurs pinceaux !
De plus, la beaut� de l'嶮ifice et de son environnement sont magnifiquement mis en relief dans cette tr鋊 belle r嶧lisation.
Amiti廥.

Bonjour Serge,

Le ciel est impressionnant et est un atout � la composition. Les arbres cadrent bien la chapelle. La prise de vue permet de voir une double perspective de l'architecture de la chapelle. Bonne journ嶪.

Bonjour Serge,

You have shown a beautifully composed photograph, the vines. leading to thewell placed church, beyond which is a most dramatic sky, made all the more effective by your use of Color Efex.
The scene and the mood are equally well captured.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Ciao Serge
la Marna rievoca dure battaglie e, con esse, tante vittime, di conseguenza il Memoriale, triste finale.
La tua foto � molto bella ed � bello anche il luogo, l'architettura � circondata da vigneti che rendono il tutto pi� piacevole.
Buon we
Carlo

Hello Sergio, Impressive chapel as a memorial of the battle of Marne. The chapel looks as an old Gothic cathedral. Beautiful composition with the vineyards. But the most eye catching is this sky.

Kind regrad s Malgo

Hi Serge,
A beautifully composed image with the lines of vines leading the eye to the chapel. The green contrasts well with the grey sky and creates an atmosphere in keeping with the subject.

Regards,

Richard

Bonjour Serge,
A really beautiful photo of this memorial, the dark and threatening clouds make such a fantastic backdrop. The vines make a really good foreground as well. Great light management and sharpness.
