This one's fantastic Chris! The light, sky and reflection. The left side looks a bit dark perhaps... you could probably crop that hill out and be better off, but a big print may reveal things I can't really see at this size. Good processing.

That's magnificent! I love the bridge leading in from the right. And of course, the lighting is very moody. I like this a lot.

Hi Chris, This is quite a dramatic shot. I would suggest you crop the very dark portion of the hills and their reflection on the left side. I think it doing that would assist the viewer in focusing on the building.

Absolutely breathtaking! The lighting, composition, panoramic setting and dramatic sky all work beautifully. Congratulations on the moderator's pick... well deserved.

Chris: Welcome to NPN and thanks for a spectacular debut. The only problem I have with this is that you have set a very high standard for yourself. Excellent photography. >=))>

An amazing shot. Great mood created by the clouds and light.

Assist me in learning, it appears that the sun is peeking out behind the hills to the left of the castle but the castle appears to be front lit, how did you accomplish this?
