Wow, colors are gorgeous. Kind of a spooky looking place to me. Nicely done image, but the way it is sitting "up" there it makes me wonder what other angles you could shoot from.

7 - Nice take on a usually 'gray/grey' scene (and city).

Wonderful contrast - makes this sing! The color against the bland stone of the castle.

Great job of framing the castle here to draw the eye toward it. The reds, greens, and yellows in the trees are stunning, and the castle is nicely sharpened. Great control of exposure, too.

Good old Scotland. Beautiful capture of this amazing castle. Colours are rich and would like to see the focus a little stronger on the castle. Still a decent shot. Good Luck. 7.

Love the castle but the reds are a bit overpowering. I would tone down the red saturation.

Beautiful scene and I like the way the trees frame the castle. Seems a bit oversaturated.

Aww, Edinburgh... I miss Edinburgh! And how the hell did you get those colours, I've never seen the leaves look like that :p
Great shot!

great job framing the castle with the trees...

Wow. Astounding colors without looking oversaturated. I like how you create a natural frame for the picture. If you could get up a little high it would be nice but that's being nitpicky.

I saw this castle many years ago...around '95, what a great capture of it. Those are some vibrant colors.
