Manuel, your composition is just wonderful and this castle is so interesting. You know us folks who don't live near such amazing history want to know about it .. how old is it, do you know? If you cloned out the items in the foreground, it would have an even greater impact. Well done! - Patty

Manuel, this image of the castle of the Village of the Fair is very pretty, I says of the heart, because I know the Castle, not only knows as I can say to be it ´´unica person to perhaps have the made towers of this castle with woods of forforo, 15 a thousand approximately, work if to calhar only, done in the time of the colonial War. Congratulations manuel, and good bye (pride)

I am a sucker for castles and all medieval or ancient things. I like your full descripton. My knowledge of castles is upgraded. I thank you for that.

Don't believe anything you read on the net. Except this. Well, including this, I suppose. (Douglas Adams)
