[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Happy Halloween from Transilvania! If there is one place here in Transilvania that conjures up the feel of a horror movie it's surely this one. The medieval Corvin castle in the city of Hunedoara. Although it reputedly had little to do with Vlad the impaler, or Dracula, this imposing fortress is very spooky and supposedly haunted. A HDR image made from 3 seperate exposures.

Good linear perspective is provided by the fg bridge. A superb warm vs cold colour contrast between the red turrets & blue sky. Happy Halloween!

Even if :
- Halloween it's not at all a romanian tradition
- Vlad the impaler it's not Dracula (maybe he inspired in some way Bram Stoker)
I have to congratulate you for this wonderful shot of the castle !!!


thanks,
v
ps.I'll come back with the points

Wouaww!
