A Walk in St. Gallen

A Swiss delight.

These vignettes were collected during a leisurely stroll through the old quarter of St. Gallen, Switzerland. The overcast morning was ideal, teasing out the rich colours of this exquisite town.

All the photos were taken with the EOS 5D Mark III and the 24-105L lens.
