Hall of mirrors in Versailles, France

Hall of Mirrors

I was visiting France just at the outskirts of Paris in Versailles. I was at the palace (turned museum) of King Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette conquered by Napoleon Bonaparte. I reached the famed Hall of Mirrors with exquisite chandeliers that looked to be of crystal. Since then, the chandeliers have been updated to have electricity and no longer burn so many candles! The entire hall was gorgeous! It opened to one side with windows through which sunlight reached. Both sides were intermittently lined with mirrors, but that's not all. There were pedestals with antique art of busts of famed persons of the time period sitting atop the pedestals. The room was crystal (silver), golden, and white. Complemented with sunlight or just the dazzle of the chandelier light, it was an amazing effect. I am sure some of the grandest events of the 15th-16th century had been hosted in the hall of mirrors...I just wish I could look back in time to see it!

Photo in glowing sepia antique finish

This image is identical to the blog image posted currently as you enter the site. The difference is that this image is not in b&w. It is in a sepia antique finish that seems to make the photo glow. The shoes were a silver sequined pair. The wood surface the shoes rested on complemented the image as seen here perfectly. With professional digital editing software, it is possible to have this and many other effects on digital images to render a photo that is a work of art.
