Palace of Versailles (2019) — where the halls were shoulder-to-shoulder, everyone had a selfie stick, and my patience was hanging by a thread dipped in gold leaf.

So I did the only sane thing: I looked up. And somehow captured the one moment, in the entire palace, where another human being wasn’t in the frame.

The chandelier, the ceiling, the colors—absolutely worth the neck cramp. Sometimes the escape hatch is vertical.
