Ha ha- cobra pose on a pissed off cornsnake. I am very familiar with this position - nice job catching it in a photo!

Great shot! That little tinge of color adds a completely different perspective to the entire photo!

King Ludwig's favorite composer was Richard Wagner - there is a plaque in the courtyard about him and the grotto in Neuschwantstein was from one of Wagner's plays.
Back through my great grandmother we are somehow related to Wagner so when I saw this place firsthand - it was like seeing some of my family history. Absolutely fantastic!

I love old artwork like this - they just don't make anything like it anymore.

Beautiful in black and white.
Did you see the other castle down the hill? Hohenschwangau? We didn't stop to see it - but I took some photos from above.

Neuschwanstein! I visited this castle back in '98. It is beautiful inside and out. I love the perspective here with the bright colors in the foreground.

Beautiful snakes and excellent job catching the tongue shot!
Are they yours or wild or at a zoo?

I love the simplicity of this with those rich vibrant colors.

This is just awesome. The color and detail are outstanding. My only nitpick is the left antennae being cut off. Still getting an 8 from me!
