This is a small and old village located by the river Doubs in the Jura Mountains of switzerland just a few miles from the french border. Especially in the winter time it looks like a village from two hundred years ago.

Very cool shot! The contrast on the aging stone is fantastic and I love the leading line into the yellow tunnel.

Great pano comp, perfect for this cool old bridge Bill.
I like how the bridge leads your eye to the lit-up passage way..
Attractive light that shines done on the silky smooth water as well.
Merry Christmas

Beautiful little village and beautiful image of it. The entrance's warm light looks very inviting to a traveler.

Love the atmosphere, Bill. The way the gold emanating from the archway stands out against the cool tones is marvelous.
