I googled it, it's amazing that it's still standing. Nothing built today is built to last!
Cool B&W shot! are you from Ireland? Have a great day!
Beautiful castle and photo.
LOVE THIS ONE TOO!
Wow, this is so beautiful, great shot!
Great shot, well worth looking at the larger version it shows all the wonderful details!!!
I read through several of your blog entries. So intersting! this castle reminds me of the Rooks in Chess.
Gorgreous. And the B&W adds just the right touch. Great post.
