Sunset at Château de Le Lude

Photorealistic, cinematic wide-angle view of the historic Château de Le Lude in the Pays de la Loire, France, at sunset. The elegant Renaissance-style stone façade, tall turrets, dormer windows, and ornate carvings are bathed in warm golden-hour light. A tranquil moat reflects the château, while formal French gardens with clipped hedges frame the approach. The sky erupts in orange, pink, and lavender with soft clouds, adding dramatic color and atmosphere. Include subtle atmospheric perspective with distant trees and a gentle haze, and crisp foreground textures—weathered stone, ivy, and wrought-iron balcony railings. Use a slight low-angle lens (about 24mm) for grandeur, emphasizing architectural details, HDR lighting, and a hyper-detailed, cinematic finish.
