The Sentinels of Chambord (8) by

This is another image in an ongoing series on Chateau de Chambord which was built in the 16th century in France……… I hope you like it…
This shot was taken from the opposite side of the river that feeds the miniature lake……
The lake had boat hire and bike hire to be able to make use of other aspects within the grounds.
