[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Today I interrupt my series of winter photos with a shot made last spring in Meersburg, a very charming and well preserved German medieval town, situated on the northern bank of Lake Constance.

This castle is very old, constructed in the seventh century by a Merovingian king, Dagbert I.
During the Protestant Reformation, the castle was the residence of the Archbishop of Konstanz, a very important social position in the Middle Age in this area.

From the castle is a magnificent view of the old town and over the vineyards (Meersburg is also well known for its wines), far to the other banks.

Hello Sorina!
Frumos castelul, iar culorile si lumina sint excelente!
De ce ai intrerupt cu pozele in iarna?
Un week-end frumos!
Lili

PS - Tu stii ca in fiecare vineri exista o tema in TL? Eu m-am tot stresat ieri sa gasesc o poza potrivita temei, dar nu mi-a placut rezultatul, de aceea m-am decis la o alta in iarna.

Hello Sorina,
Good point of view on the castle, fine details in the ancient architecture!
The fine light really makes the structure stand out with great colours, the blue sky makes a lovely background...
Greetings,
