Autumn Decorations in the Chateaux

Both the Chateau Royal d'Amboise and the Chateau de Chenonceau have had some really striking autumn floral and vegetal decorations. Using the orange of pumpkins and complementing them with rich reds, purples and browns they have created some loveliness in a period of wind and wet.
