Palace of Versailles

Never in my life have I seen more opulence or grandeur than through the halls of Versailles. Every single detail was dripping in gold, crystals or paintings. It is beyond my imagination how they built such a city behind marble walls and I couldn’t help but think about all the secrets (scandals) that happened in tucked away corners where the banks of bright day light could not reach…

So many lovely people tweeted and left instagram comments telling me to visit the gardens, I wanted to experience doing that but then THIS happened…

  1. These are just stunning captures, Jamie! I am actually planning a trip to Paris in the spring when I have my spring break here at St. Andrews. I’m putting a list of everything I want to do and thank GOODNESS you were just there a few times 🙂

  2. Lovely lovely lovely. Versailles is one place I try to go every time I’m in France and this is a nice reminder of everything I love. The gardens are a must; I guess you’ll just HAVE to go back. There’s nothing like a picnic with the Parisians and the boaters.

  3. These are so beautiful! Your pictures make me feel as if I’m actually in Paris! Quick question – what camera and lens do you use? Do you edit them on photoshop as well?
