A rococo palace in Hesdin, France
A rather experimental image, involving a heavy external texture. Please have a close look first if you want to buy, I don’t want to cause any disappointments. I’m rather fond of it myself so I take the risk of posting it anyway.
Dedicated to my friend Diane, whose kind wish became the title of this image.

I’m a travel writer and photographer from the Netherlands, having published more than a dozen of Dutch-language books about a range of European destinations, and a selfpublished photobook about Tuscany ( http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/2324435 ). I use RedBubble to sell square travel photos and calendars.

Actually the title and image it self remind me of being a child, hanging on a massive gate in front of an even more massive house and dreaming of living in it :)
Great photo mate.
ps. French really know how to build them ;)
Thanks, I like that memory! Yes, it’s been a dream for me too, although a bit smaller wouldn’t be bad too. :)

Fantastic.
Thanks Daniel, I’m glad you like it. I’m fond of it myself but I’ve felt a bit uncertain about it.

It’s so strange that no one dedicates images to people here, glad you did.. nice to see some of DA’s style coming here :)
Yes, strange indeed. This was first posted elsewhere but it seemed natural to take the dedication along. :) But I won’t stop dedicating stuff here. Now, if only they’d have proper emotes here…

Lovely image Eric, very warm tones and really inspirational title. I can recognize the positive vibe from Diane in this kind wish.
Thank you, Vesna, and I’m glad you recognize Diane’s spirit in it!
