This was taken in France a few years ago. It is one of my first successful pictures. I had my first SLR camera, an analogue Canon EOS 300 which I drowned not far from this place the same year

. It was a color film but original picture is almost monotone blue and I just converted it to BW. Most of the grain is from scanning and not directly from the film.

It's incredible that this picture hasn't got any comment yet after an entire day.
It's a wonderful photograph Andrius, rich of mood and very artistic. The grain is a plus here, in my opinion, it gives the picture a timeless feeling that I really love.

A very beautiful scene. It also works well with a crop from the top to make it a pano. Thanks for posting.

Beautiful photo!. Great control of the light and I find that the background adds a beautiful aspect to it. For me the colour scan works well and is also very beautiful. Congratulations ! Best regards, Andrei
