I love the textures in old stone buildings! This one is in a gorgeous setting and you captured it beautifully!

Michael, great scene beautifully composed and presented, like the fine detail and light. Best regards Ken.

Hi Michael,

 

very appealing photo of this building and its surroundings, good light and detail. I see three 'dotted' vertical lines run through the image, looks like something you should check into. I like the composition in this photo. Kind regards, Vincent

Warren & Ken, thanks a bunch for your generous comments. - - - Vincent, I also thank you for your thoughtful remarks. Quite honestly, I've searched the image as thoroughly as possible and I've not been able to find the verticals you mention.

Michael this is a very beautiful scene wonderfully captured. Vincent is right about the dotted lines, I didn't notice them at first but after reading the comments went back and sure enough they are there. I wonder what caused this................BR, Holger

Holger, I'm grateful for your continued support. As to the vertical lines - - I've painstakingly examined the image on my iMac and my iPad, and I just cannot spot them anywhere. Can you please provide more information on their location in the image? - - My best always, michael

I love it all the way! The stone house, the details, the technical quality, the lighting, the colors...everything so pleasing to my eyes and soul! Bravo, Michael! PDE

Hi Michael, The dotted lines are just to the left of the big tree on the right, then two rows of vertical dots near each end of the front of the building, just a littlle in from the ends. It's a beautiful image and it's really just curiosity on my part. Hope this helps..................Best Always, Holger

Thanks, Holger. I was able spot the lines. Have absolutely no explanation for them.

Pierre, your continuing support is quite important to me. Many thanks - - mhl

It doesn't get better than this, Michael. A fantastic looking image with beautiful colors, light and composition. Wonderful details and textures on the building facade. You did and excellent job of capturing this spectacular looking building in its surroundings. Best regards,

I'm most grateful, Paul. It took me more time than I wanted to spend, but I discovered the dotted lines Vincent and Holger mentioned in other photos I shot using the same lens - a Tamron 18-300. I no longer use that lens, needless to say. - - My best always, michael
