Broughty Castle
by Mark Maclean

A trip back home to my old stomping ground made this very nostalgic shot for me. I don't remember Scotland being this sunny when I was a kid!

Wonderful photo.
Truly an ancient place well presented and well suited to the theme.

Hi Mark. You sure chose light which gave this building/reflection picture an almost infinite dignity. The 'cloud moment' you chose to release your shutter was a cherry on top. And differently from me, you didn't hype its PP. I KNOW I would have lost the true glamour of this scene. Thanks for the lesson.

I'm sure glad I picked this theme. I feel I can take some credit for so many gorgeous shots being posted. This is a stunner. I have no idea how large this castle is, it must me quite old (11th century?), but its form & scale are amazing - you could hold it in your hand or spread it out over a countryside - & your capture has perfectly conveys this.
