A classic postcard view over the beautiful city of Bonifacio.
Bonifacio (Corsica, France)
Das Schloß Neuschwanstein wurde ab 1869 für den bayerischen Märchenkönig & Schöngeist Ludwig II. als idealisierte Vorstellung einer Ritterburg aus der Zeit des Mittelalters errichtet. Die Entwürfe stammen von Christian Jank, die Ausführung übernahmen Eduard Riedel und Georg von Dollmann. Der König lebte nur wenige Monate im Schloss, er starb noch vor der Fertigstellung der Anlage.
Neuschwanstein ist das berühmteste der Schlösser Ludwigs II. und eine der bekanntesten Sehenswürdigkeiten Deutschlands. Es wird jährlich von etwa 1,5 Millionen Touristen besucht - jetzt auch von mir. Hier eine klassische Ansicht der Südseite von der Marienbrücke zur Blauen Stunde, die einige Geduld seitens des Fotografen erforderte, bis die Brücke endlich menschenleer war und sich nur noch kaum bewegte.
Neuschwanstein was built in 1869 for King Ludwig II. of Bavaria erected as an idealized idea of a knight’s castle from the time of the Middle Ages. The designs were created by Christian Jank, the design was taken over by Eduard Riedel and Georg von Dollmann. The king lived only a few months in the castle, he died before the completion of the plant. Neuschwanstein is the most famous of the castles of Ludwig II. and one of the most famous sights in Germany. It is visited annually by about 1. 5 million tourists – now also by me. Here is a classic view of the south side from the Marienbridge at the blue hour, which required some patience on the part of the photographer until the bridge was finally deserted and barely moved.

Not suggesting for a moment that this is postcard quality but I've been away from Flickr for a while and wanted to let you know that my shutter finger is still operational.
This shot was taken from a recent overnight trip to Oban on the west coast of Scotland. The island of Kerrera can just be seen on the left, the small Maiden Island is on the right, and the cloud covered mountains of Mull are in the far distance behind the Caledonian MacBrayne ferry.
It's good to be back folks....and it used to be traditional to send a card when you've been away.
I have always loved this scene that is shown on travel posters and promos on television. Gondolas are truly magnificent boats. Their timeless beauty adorn the waters of Venice as a testament to the romantic allure of this city surrounded by water.

Digging out one from my two glorious days on the Brocken last year. The sun doesn't shine often on the former GDR's highest mountain but when it does one can be guaranteed postcard perfect pictures. The Harzer Schmalspurbahn (HSB) is one of the busiest steam railroads in the world with trains running almost every hour, every day, all year.
Getting ready for my booth at the Oh Sweet Sadie boutique.

I tried to capture the colors of those cheesy 50’s Hotel Postcards but I didn’t quite succeed.

An idyllic still morning on Rydal Water in Springtime.
The sunrise colours were very muted this morning but stil really pleasant, they really didn't last long at all, I've shot this location a good few times now and you can see the sky changing very clearly to your left as you face this way down the lake, might be something, might be nothing, you never know what you are going to get... one thing that doesn't change though is being stood in the lake with your wellies on at dawn as the sun comes up is always magical regardless of what image you get, (or don't).
The water was perfectly still this morning so I had to be the same stood in the water so as not to cause any ripples on the surface, falling in never helps either, I've got form for such things....thankfully that didn't happen on this trip...
Taken on Weybourne Beach, Norfolk, England. Just between me an you Weybourne is a great place to take photos, with cliffs, boats, tractors, a pebble beach, a windmill, fields, wild flowers, bird life, fishermen, the sea and the odd WW2 defensive structure you can always find something interesting to capture.
