For those of you who don't know, HDR photographs are photograph that are composed of multiple shots of the same object taken at different exposure. When done well, these photos can look amazing and show all sorts of details that you wouldn't normally see in a photograph. In this post I've found some amazing HDR images from around Versailles.
Camping grounds at Versailles

The Palace of Versailles often has a variety of exhibitions on display, either at the Palace itself, or elsewhere on the palace grounds. This summer the Palace is showing an exhibition called "Exubérance baroque" (baroque exuberance), and is located in the gardens of the Petit Trianon The exhibition was designed and created by two notable French designers, Alexis Tricoire and Jean-Philippe Poirée-Ville who have worked together to create a new take on Baroque gardens. The exhibition was created as part of France's Rendez-vous aux Jardins, an annual event sponsored by the Minister of Culture and Communication, designed to help the French public learn about gardens and conservation. Access to the exhibition is free with the purchase of a ticket to the Trianon Palaces (10 euros) and will be open until September 26th.
