Families enjoying a pleasant afternoon in Collioure. The large building in the background is the Chateau Royal, which was originally built around the 7th century & added on to & expanded many times since then - including by the Knights Templar in the 13th & 14th centuries.

Great shot and postwork. Lovely light
I like that the folks on the bench seem to be looking at the fortress and enjoying the scene along with we viewers of your lovely photograph.
EXCELLENT WORK
Awesome!
Somehow I can wrap my brain around millions of years of geology more easily than I can imagine a 7th century building that's still there. I really must get to Europe "where the history is," as Eddie Izzard says. Exposure and education will undoubtedly cure the lack.
Great postwork - nicely done!
Beautiful image and postwork!
Marvelous image !
Sensational setting!

A massive 'Chateau' it must have been an impressive fortification over the years. I like this POV!
