Scenic Schloss Senden-3

This is the backside of Schloss Senden and pretty rear-end it has, there is a walking trail that follows around the moat and connects to various park trails offering many beautiful views of the castle.

 

The municipal government around Senden Castle was initially not too interested in repairing the castle in its dilapidated state as a study commissioned in 2007 reported that the commercial value of the property was one half million Euro but the repair costs would be between six and nine million Euro.

 

In 2015 seven citizens formed a non-profit called “Friends of Schloss Send” who acquired the building and have been working to restore it fully ever since through petitions to local, state and federal governments for financial aid and an army of volunteers to help realize their dream of restoration and community use.

 

I took this with my D750 and Tamron SP 24-70mm 2.8 G2 Lens at 24mm 1/13s, f/11 ISO 100 processed in LR, Topaz Denoise, PS +Lumenzia, finished with Focalblade

 

Disclaimer: Not trying to be realistic in my editing there is enough realism in the world, my style is a mix of painterly and romanticism as well as a work in progress.
