Imagine ... all the divine beauty *

No photograph can render justice to Saint Chapelle, Paris. Not this one. So all-embracing is this experience. Still I hope that it can help you to imagine it.

In order to be under the size limit I had to resize it to 600x450 and to use PS JPG level 2, very coarse. You can have a look at 800x600 version with PS JPG level 8 at

I agree with Anna that including the person really helps in bringing out the message in this photograph - well done! As for the image size, this is the worst imaginable kind of image when it comes to compressing. You've done what you can to keep it down. It is still slightly over the allowed 153600 bytes, but I am not going to ask you to compress even further nor to make it smaller. This one has my written permission to be slightly over the size-limit (only 816 bytes). --Olaf

Having the person in the picture shows how huge those windows are in real life. Impressive, overpowering.
