Practically looks like a Maxfield Parrish painting.
Very interesting.
Thanks for sharing.

very pretty area and well-framed shot, but i think you're right, a bit too hard on the HDR

Yeah true, but that's the way I wanted this one. I wanted an OTT French 19th century look. Thanks for looking!

Thanks Dave. Soon I'll outgrow this phase and get back to more normal pictures. LOL

I think the HDR is fine. It looks almost surreal and reeeally dreamy. Great shot.

appreciate your creativity.... you've given this the feel of an older, earlier 20th century postcard...
