This cloister is at the abbey of St. Hillaire in the south of France where champagne was invented (The northern French stole the idea it is claimed.) The local sparkling wine is fantastic, and is considered a dessert wine. I actually shot this in black and white back in 2003 with my Panasonic Lumix FZ-10. I do miss that camera.

Regmar, you're so good at composing your shots and the light is wonderful too. Great shot!

Very nice and it speaks well for that Panasonic camera, as well as for the artist who captured it!!

I love this shot. The comp and perspective are excellent. The overall feel is very thoughtful and quiet, reflective almost.
