Bathed in soft light, the imposing facade of Bourges Cathedral takes center stage in this photograph.

Pecarrere's expert composition draws attention to the intricately carved main entrance with its ornate arches and towering doors. Located in Bourges, France, this cathedral is not only an important religious site but also a testament to human creativity and craftsmanship.
