Another one from our recent visit to civilization. The cathedral is part of the 71 historic monuments on the Unesco list of buildings on the Camino de Santiago - the pilgrim's road to Santiago de Compostela.
Here Alienor of Aquitaine was married in 1137.
I have uploaded a more gothic conversion and also the original colour version!

many thanks for your comments and votes on the nuthatch and special thanks from Annette to Annette for the UA

I like them all but V3 is beautiful.............love the tones and light in V3...............
Fabulous shot, superb composition, for me I think V3 just edges it as my favorite but I love them all
Hugh
This is the corner of France that I don't know...
I like the description of V2 as more Gothic, and I'll go with that version. It has a cool, graphic precision, and more importantly for me it gives a greater sense of depth, I can walk through those arches.
V3 is lovely too.
Moira
Three fine versions, Annette. v3 has a lovely quality to the colour and light, but v2 wins it for the stark grandeur. A lovely depth from your pov and lens as well.
Dave
Very fine image, and thanks for the introduction to this cathedral.
Each one conveys a different mood, and they are all magnificent.
I just watched a tv special on the French cathedrals, and how the pointed arches allowed the windows to be so tall and numerous. Very interesting architectural theories of how they were built.
Lucky you to be able to see this in person.
I love church interiors, this one shows so much detail and grandeur! A great image Annette
Kind regards
Maggie
Beautifully captured, Annette, with excellent symmetry and control of light. I'm usually in the minority when I choose a colour version, but not in this case, so it seems from the above comments. V2 is my second choice, great atmosphere there.
Version one for me Annette.though all are superb.
Beautiful.

Tremendous perspective and architectural detail Annette, you've captured the interior of this magnificent building in all its splendour. The colour version is the stand out shot for me
