I've put this here because I was carrying the Samsung NX5 with its 18-55mm kit lens, although I manually focused many of the shots. (My sight is giving me trouble when conditions are difficult).

However I didn't want to miss the opportunity of showing this old middle-age castle, that sits on top of a hill, surronded by a forest. To get there it's necessary to wade a small stream, the bottom full of round stones and quite unstable to walk. Not many people is visiting the castle, so a nice place for taken some pictures.

1. When getting near the castle, some ruins appear:


2. Then the castle suddenly appears:


3. The external walls are still up in quite good shape:


4. But internally nothing remailns, just some walls:


I'll post more as soon as I can process them.

Regards.
Jes.

Looks to be worth some wet feet.

Seems to me a perfect setting for a portrait photo session!

Good to know, Barcelona is on my list of desired travel destinations. Thanks Jes.
I'm from the Polish coast, so so enjoying slightly different landscapes here Smile
