I suppose some may call that rafters, but MON DIEU it is just more handcrafted ART! Another nice takeaway HiHo i love this series. The available light works so unbelievably well in this photograph like none other, especially for how complicated the structure. Superbly done, may not seem like you had to do much, but you saw, you took, and the seeing and taking were both splendid. i really like the shaft of light surrounding that upside finial (or whatever architectural term is correct) tucked at the top of the arch.
