Thank you all for the wonderful compliments. Le Mont Saint Michele is a great subject, and I was fortunate to capture a magical night last summer.

Behind The Lens
Location
This was shot at Le Mont St. Michel, Normandy, France.Time
It was shot at twilight in July, so approx 10pm.Lighting
The light was natural. I caught the sky just after the sun set and the lights were coming up on the subject.Equipment
I used a tripod mounted Nikon D810 with a NIkkor 24-70mm lens. No filter.Inspiration
I always wanted to shoot Le Mont St. Michel. So I spent a couple of days there in July shooting it a various times of the day during the month of July.Editing
Yes, there is post processing involved, some sharpening and highlighting the lights and whatnot.In my camera bag
D810, Nikon Trinity lenses, 50mm Sigma art 1.4, various polarizing and Neutral Density Filters.Feedback
That time of day between light and dark--twilight--is my favorite.
