Lenzburg Castle, a photo from Aargau, West

Photographer's Note

"Lenzburg Castle (German: Schloss Lenzburg) is a castle located above the old part of the town of Lenzburg in the Canton of Aargau, Switzerland. It ranks among the oldest and most important of Switzerland. The castle stands on the almost circular castle hill (altitude: 504 m), which rises approximately 100 m (330 ft) over the surrounding plain but is only about 250 m (820 ft) in diameter. The oldest parts of the castle date to the 11th century, when the Counts of Lenzburg built it as their seat. The castle, its historical museum and the castle hill with its Neolithic burial grounds are listed as heritage sites of national significance"

Hello Jarek,
Very nice image of this remarkably well-preserved castle overhanging the valley. The chosen POV allows to embrace a large part of the beautiful landscape. The scudding clouds add an important dimension to the image and make the colour of the grass stand out. Really well composed and executed.
Kind regards,
Christian

Hello Jarek,

I really adore the composition and lighting in this picture. The colours are so bright and luscious, is hard to believe that the weather turned bad after you took it. Luckily Lenzburg Castle is less than an hour away by train from where I live, so I hope to visit it some time soon, as well! :)

Best regards,
Olivia
