I am trying to figure out what vantage point you had to take this image since it does not look like you were standing on the "passerelle" at the rear of the castle. Nice to see that the scaffolding is finally down. I am looking forward to visiting this location again in 2013.

Great image and I wish you the very best of luck in the challenge.


Yes indeed it is the Neuschwanstein Castle. The image was taken from the Marienbrücke bridge.

What a beautiful castle! It's height and size are very well depicted in this picture.. It definitely does it justice.

Wow! I don't know where this is, but this is what I imagine Romania to be like.. :) Castle on a hill with wonderful country around... The teeny tiny road leading up into the hills, the village in the far distance, on the shore of a lake snaking in the background, the wonderful clouds pattern in the sky - so many elements to enjoy!

Nope, Ol' Walt stole from the Europeans. Swiss? Or Germans. Have to do a CSI image analysis on your castle :) Nice work. Lovely sky and composition.
