[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This photo was taken just before sunset in Langenargen, a cozy little town situated on the Lake Constance.
This castle was built on a peninsula, having an unusual architecture for this area (Moresque style) by the royal house of Württemberg on the place of an old castle, originally owned by the Montfort counts, which has in their possession this area until 1787 when their line died out.
Today, it serves as a concert and exhibition building with a terrace café with a beautiful view.

Hello Sorina
Vedry elegant and gracful castle and a splendid photo that is well balanced. From foreground to background, everything is sharp. I love the two isolated trees to the left and that fog in the background.
Nicely done

What a beautiful place, Sorina! Excellent composition with this castle and its golden reflections on the quiet sea. I like the light on foreground giving interesting textures and gleams at the rocks. Very nicely done! Annie

Hello Sorina,
it is such a beauty to see a castle as such. Majestic and beautiful to be near attractive trees and by the deep blue lake.
yu photo is full of beautiful elements; the ripples are very lively that it complement live to the environment, the suble nd soft sky add mood to the picture, the foreground-the pebbles are shining and alive, but most of all the light falls onto the castle- the main focus of the photo.
A well thought photo with a high ability of your photographic mind.
Great shot.

Regards,
Foozi

Sorina,

Charming afternoon vision: a castle by a lake, a composition which never fails to enchant, especially when is mastered so nicely. Simply fine.

Donato
