There is so much history there, something that I really enjoy. Lots of photo ops too. I like the people there for a sense of scale, Clive

Awesome on the zoom. The age and history of this building just blows my mind. Over here, 50 years old is ANCIENT!
What a wonderful site and i would have loved to of seen the inside of this castle.
What a fantastic ruin, looks very interesting. Excellent shot!
Really good at the zoom. Fascinating.
Mysterious and beautiful; it almost looks like a sandcastle. Excellent capture!
A fantastic photo-shot, Jeff. Great POV, and I love the Clematis-seeds on it too.
Wonderful looking ruins, would be a fantastic place to explore. :) Excellent capture!
Now this is truly something to stop and marvel at! How extremely mysterious are these remains, and in fact I will read up about this a little more, as it is rather intriguing! Excellent perspective, and I like how you've even got some of the road here, to show the placement and wherein exactly it was built! A fascinating find!
Impressive castle in ruins !
excellent shot
This is an amazing beauty my friend. :))))) It is really nice seeing a person there admiring the beauty before them. :))))) Most excellent capture my friend. :)))) Thank you for sharing all of the beauty you see. :))))) Carry A Smile In Your Heart :))))))
Fantastic capture Jeff!!
Excellent shot, fantastic colors and details
Great capture of these awesome ruins!!! Great lighting, detail, and the person standing below the castle gives scale to this beautiful image!!
outstanding capture.I would expect access is limited so this good of pov is not easy
Looks like a wonderful place to explore, great shot!
I agree! What a wonderful place to explore! The history and its destruction during the Civil War is very interesting too. It's amazing that they discovered the pelican as late as 2008. I never knew about the legends in ancient times about pelicans or that early Christians saw them as a symbol of Christ's sacrifice on the cross. Excellent capture! Great POV, which shows its massive size. It looms very effectively right now. How much more imposing it must have been before it was destroyed. It would be marvelous to live near it and see the ruins in all types of light and weather, though rain and blustery wind, could dampen enthusiasm a bit.
GORGEOUS
Fantastic photo-shot, Jeff ! Wonderful place and photo !
WOW it looks so beautiful and interesting.
Fascinating!
