One of a series of Northumberland Castles I recently completed. Parts of the castle featured as Hogwarts in the first two of the Harry Potter series of movies.

Re: Alnwick Castle aka Hogwarts
Lovely image Keith. I like everything about it - the composition and the aspect ratio, the colours, the shadows, the reflections in the water, and the sky.
Cheers Dave

Re: Alnwick Castle aka Hogwarts
Really like the way you have used the trees to' frame' the castle and its brilliant reflection, as well as having the tree on the LHS 'mask' the buildings behind and stop them being 'attention deflectors.' Nice work.

I agree that is very well done. Nothing needed in my humble opinion!

Re: Alnwick Castle aka Hogwarts
I'd put a wrapper on it Keith, and post to the Mini's so that others can chime in, with votes!

Re: Alnwick Castle aka Hogwarts
You've achieved the impossible ...
Daughter #1 "Awesome"
Daughter #2 "That's so cool"
Best I ever get is "that's nice dad" (I think it was the Happy Potter reference that did it!).

Re: Alnwick Castle aka Hogwarts
It is an amazing image. It has a mystical feel about it and then the reflection, the clarity, the composition...really just outstanding.
