What a dramatic sight Mirko...I love these castles on the Rhein and have very fond memories of trips there when I was younger.

dj.tigersprout from San Bruno, United States

wonderful angle and diagonal landscape! i love how the foreground is water. the sky is magnificent, and all the directional lines meet a point hust off the page to the left -- very slick! :)

@dj.tigersprout: Thanks for your detailed analysis :-) I happy you like my pic...

Nice composition! i love the scenery, i wonder if i could ride a train that passes on place liek that one! im sure its fun!

25 Jun 2008 11:17am

@CybaSumo: The train is normal public transport! So you could easily take a ride. There are loads of scenic train routes along the Rhine.

Mike from Lichfield, United Kingdom

Great photo. It looks like a nice part of the world.

@Mike: It certainly is ;-) Thanks for your visit.

Caryn from United States

I love the colors here, and the juxtaposition of the old (castle) and new (train), all with the motion of the water in the foreground. Very nice.

@Caryn: Thanks for your kind words, Caryn.

Jeff from Stanwood, United States

@Jeff: Maybe you are not that lucky with castles, but I think you have a lot of other great 'wonders of the world'! :-)

Klaus from Augsburg, Germany

Mirko - wie ich finde gelungenes HDRi. Was mir gut gefällt - es wirkt noch natürlich aber hat genug Kontrast. Mail wegen Frage ist unterwegs ;-)

@Klaus: Vielen Dank für Deine regelmäßigen Besuche, Klaus. Da muss ich doch gleich mal in mein Postfach schauen...

Jason Kravitz from Brussels, Belgium

great scene. I like the vivid colors and your composition with the water to train to castle to sky. Good timing to get the front of the train going through the frame.
