View from Castelgrande on the Alps in Bellinzona, Switzerland.
Taken with my first DSLR, the Pentax *ist DS with Pentax 21mm pancake Limited.
The 21mm had plenty of sharpness and contrast for that sensor. I sold it to buy a f/2.8 3rd party zoom. So young... so stupid...
Castelgrande
The Castles of Bellinzona are a group of fortifications located around the town of Bellinzona, the capital of the Swiss canton of Ticino. Situated on the Alpine foothills, the group is composed of fortified walls and three castles named Castelgrande, Montebello and Sasso Corbaro. Castelgrande is located on a rocky peak overlooking the valley, with a series of walls that protect the old city and connect to Montebello. Sasso Corbaro, the highest of the three castles, is located on an isolated rocky promontory south-east of the other two. The Castles of Bellinzona with their defensive walls have been an UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2000.

Bellinzona, capitale del cantone svizzero del Ticino, è famosa per i tre castelli medievali, tra cui quello di Sasso Corbaro e Castelgrande, costruito su una collina. Entrambi regalano panorami della città, delle Alpi, e del Castello di Montebello, il terzo.
Grazie mille per i gentili commenti!
