[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Mirsky Castle Complex is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The construction of the castle began at the end of the 15th century, in the Gothic architecture style. Building of the castle was completed by Duke Ilinich in early 16th century near the village Mir (formerly of Minsk guberniya). Around 1568 the Mir Castle passed into the hands of Mikołaj Krzysztof "the Orphan" Radziwiłł, who finished building the castle in the Renaissance style. A three-storey palace was built along the eastern and northern walls of the castle. Plastered facades were decorated with limestone portals, plates, balconies and porches... (Wikipedia)

During the half a minute exposure, I was walking with a flash Nikon SB 800 in my hand and fired towards the castle as it was in complete darkness. You can see my legs actually :)
