This image was taken during my long weekend holiday trip to Quebec. It came out Out of Camera very similar to this, I only had to do some minor adjustements.

It was taken after a rain storm and the sky was between a gray and chocolate milk color, the others colors were just amazing. Hope you liked it.

Beautiful perspective and the leading line of the stair rail really shoots you up to the lit building. Lovely. Congrats on top 20.

This has to be one of the nicest images of the Chateau Frontenac that I have had the pleasure to view. The colours are stunning and you have choseen a truly wonderful perspective. Very well done. I am definitely adding this image to my favorites list.

for me, what makes this shot good is point of view. The inclusion of the stairs, lamp, etc. add personality to the image. well done. 8

Very interesting approach to be looking up the stairs. I really like the composition.

Gorgeous looking architecture but wish you were closer, the lines of the railing are nice but this challenge calls for the building to be the main focal point. 6

Unusual angle to shoot from. Most shots of such places seem to be of just the building - I really like how you included the stairs and all - gives a much better sense of place. 9

Nice angle, with the steps leading you up to the Chateau. I just love that building, I stayed in it once. Would love to go back.

the lines are distracting and the choice of postioning the comp isnt flattering to me
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Nice image. Good use of browns. I don't know how you managed to get that street lamp off, but it works for me. Is this Frontenac in Quebec?
