Chateau de Ragny
This is the place where my brother works. It now belongs to a couple of British people, who restored it pretty nicely. It's located in Normandy (France).

Re: Chateau de Ragny
Enjoying the renditions. I made the storm more dramatic, enhanced the front door, replaced the car with more tree shadow, added a little shadow to the central foreground and finally, used a paint effect on the whole image.

Pretty dramatic all right, MiningArt !!! LOL

PS: One thing I noticed on your pictures is that the building is slightly crooked still. I think it looks better when straightened.

Paint Engine brush strokes. Looks like it was stacked while the paint was still wet.
