Hello Bev,
The remains of a rich past as many can be found in good old England.
Here too, the visitor is guided with care, over and through the remains.
Beautiful picture
Have a good weekend, groet Rob

Hello Bev,
The wooden bridges and staircase lead us to the castle and up its wall, connecting the nearest bush with the tower (and the person in the red shirt). There is no empty, unused space in the composition, and the visitors do their usual important job of animating the view and defining the dimensions. It's a very bright and clear photo and there is certainly enough remaining of the old castle to allow us to imagine what it once looked like.
Kind regards,
Gert

Beverley, this castle should be fascinating to explore. A wooden footbridge crossing the dry moats and staircases were added to make easier the visits. The site has a long and troubled history. Fine colors, good sharpness, instructive photo note, regards.

Bonjour, chère Bev,
Tous les éléments sont là pour donner l'impression de revivre une époque médiévale.
L'architecture défensive avec cette énorme tour ronde flanquée de systèmes de défense. L'état indique son âge et sa noblesse encore majestueuse.
Amitiés.
Philippe

Hi Bev,
quite an interesting story... Now looking at Raby Castle I will keep in mind that the stone was stolen from Barnard Castle.
I wonder if some bricks may have quite a long history of going from one castle to another... May be some coming from Roman times yet.
This is view more similar to my photo.
I like how you have used the tree here.
Your photos really encourage me to re-visit this place someday. I still have the English Heritage membership.
I just have to wait for a good weather. Unfortunately weekends are quite bad recently.
I didn't use may camera in November at all, and in October only on one day, in December as well...
I hope the weather improves soon :)
Great series of the photos, the location deserves it!

Hi Beverley,

The tree is helping to frame the scene. The point of view is showing the details of the walls of the Barnard castle. The light is giving good colors rendering. Have a nice day.
