Ludwig's Castle, a photo from Niedersachsen, West

Photographer's Note

Spring break with the kids and plenty of frequent flier miles from work = trip to Bavaria! This is a shot of King Ludwig's Swan castle - Neuschwanstein Castle, which he never got to live in (he about bankrupted Bavaria buidling it and drowned before it was completed). A 10 minute hike around the back of the castle and up the hill allows you to get out on a suspension bridge for this well documented angle of the castle. From the bridge it was perfectly clear and you could see for miles!

Russ,
This is a nice shot of this famous castle. Your composition is fine with the inclusion of the the rock face on the left which helps to frame the shot. The lighting and colors are great with excellent sharpness and DOF.
TFS,
Asa
