Been there only for work, without time to take a snapshot (or even willing to, as I always carry a PS in my bag...). But there are signs everywhere stating that it is forbident to take a picture, and having discussed with a visitor, he told me they ask for money if you ask for permission. You may take a pict and go away without problems unless you try to set the 8x10 camera.... The funniest problem seen by a court was the guy asking for money for pictures of a volcano in Auvergne ! He owns the place, it is an agrucultural land, the volcano being extinct for centuries, so it is hard to tell on the picture if it's his volcano or another... > > > > > Regards > > > > Ralph W.
