Ah, thanks for the nod to my name, as they hang out doing what they do, coo and court, ever on the lookout for tidbits. With or without them, this is a splendid image. I love how the end of the dimly lit street flares out into a fanfare of bright sunlight. It hangs a sheer curtain of haze before the looming mountain across the way. Sweet how that both keeps attention on the foreground neighborhood and offhandedly beckons us afield. The walls close in but don't, at least during daytime, feel claustrophobic. This because of how it opens up. I especially like the street lanterns. They seem to encompass the atmosphere within, a chiming harmony with the day.
Thank you.

I love the moody scene with the long exposure. The movement of the clouds really draw the eye to the castle.
