Lens-Artists #63: Magical

Posted in Historic Sites, PhotographyTagged , , , ,

This week, Ann-Christine has challenged us to show what is magical to us.

What is more magical than an ancient castle? As we traveled through Ireland and Scotland earlier this year one of my favorite things was seeing the many castles.

For me, the most magical of all was Dunnottar Castle in Stovehaven, Scotland. Sitting on top of a cliff that juts out into the North Sea, it seemed to magically appear out of a thick fog.

Occasionally the fog would clear just long enough for a clear view. Even without the fog, it was a magical site to see.

  2. Beth, you’ve reminded me of MY favorite castle from our visit to Scotland. What a magical place – the entire country I think! Thanks so much for the fond memory and the beautiful contribution to this week’s challenge.
