Tallinn
Of everywhere we visited in the Baltic States Tallinn was my favorite place even though I could not for the life of me pronounce most of the consonant heavy words used to identify most of the things I found to my liking. This was my first experience with a walled city, Tallinn has almost 2km of intact defenses that were started in the 13th century and weaved into the city walls that stand guard today. This shot captures one of the 26 wall towers that make up Tallinn’s defenses, today the tourism board has made several towers available for touring and certain sections of the wall are open for walking giving fine views of the old town.
I took this on May 20, 2008 with my D70s and Tamron 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 Lens at 25mm, 1/400s, f10 ISO 200 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia ,Topaz, and DXO Nik
