Hi Valery,
nice shot!
Much more, I could not say for sure! I have been to Paris but I am no expert.
I think it should be one??
Tell us more?!
See you with nice pictures
Klaus
P.S. Image Processing could be optimised?! What did you adjust with the SPP sliders (assumed you did RAW)?? There are no EXIFs ... so I cannot read the data.

Hello Klaus,
Thank you for your comment!
You are right, it is the place – Place de la Concorde, from a different angle, though.
I will post more pictures. Those are the first ones that I made with my Sigma SD14.
Any help and advice will be highly appreciated : ))
Thanks again!
Valery

Hi Valery,
just what I assumed ... let's see what we can do!
The problem is, that I only can estimate from my SIGMA RAW experience to optimise here. Would be nice to have the RAW-File?! If you would like me to do exact work, send me a PM ... you will get my mail adress then.
1) White balance ...
you used ATM-WB ... that is what I do in most cases as well. In many cases this works perfectly ... in this case I see a yellow tint. This sometimes happens because your SD tries to compensate the blue sky.
Change the White Balance in SPP 2.5 to 8C+8M (using the colour-circle)
"C" means cyan and "M" means magenta
2) Your shot is frontlight! So, the bright sky in the background slows down exposure. You could have corrected exposure when taking the pic. If you speed up exposure too much, the sky will lose colour ... appear just white ... no solution as well!
Change the Fill light slider to values between +0.3 up to +0,8 to fill light into the shades. Watch the sky now carefully! If it loses brillance then change the lights to say (+0,5 -+1.0) If the pic then looks too flat or lifeless reduce the shadows a bit. Better do not change contrast using the contrast-slider.
I can correct the WB and lighten the pic ... Fill Light only can be done with the RAW-file
See you with nice pictures

Hi again ...
there is a place in Gernany, which comes very close to Versaille's architecture .... that is SANSSOUCI at POTSDAM near BERLIN.
I have been there ... many years ago ... before digital photogrphy was invented. It waqs very impressive!! I will have to go there with my SIGMA cameras!!
See you with nice pictures
