La lumière filtrant du vitrail donne une belle profondeur à l'ensemble, et l'atmosphère nous invite au recueillement..........ta photo est apaisante et très esthétique, Jean-Claude !

Wow, JC!!! This is one of the most amazing shots I've ever seen! The organ itself is astounding, but with the window and arched ceiling as background? Holy smoke! It looks like they designed the room around the organ. Phenomenal capture, my friend!

A magnificent capture, Jean! Wish I could hear the music! I googled it, but couldn't find any sounds.

Wonderful shot - I like the symmetry. There's also an interesting contrast between the stark geometry of the modern organ & the old stone architecture & ornate stained glass window...

Superbe photo Jean-Claude, et... Muahaha, malgré le luxe de détails techniques pour faire diversion, mon oeil a immédiatement tiqué sur le nom plutôt savoureux de ce facteur d'orgue... On s'refait pas, Héhé ^^
