You are too kind Lizzie

Awesome. Looks delightfully creepy to me! ;)

Well framed. I love that the castle is sort of hidden behind all the wirey branches of the trees. Very spooky.

wow what a eyecatching photograph scary not a bit of it love it

Thanks for sharing this fantastic piece. Very creepy but I like it! Reminds me of a old place that scared all of us kids when we were younger & I was dared to go in. Yes I did it by the way!

Perfectly done Catalin, the lighting at the time this picture was taken was perfect, it sets the eerie mood well done.

Known as ‘Vlad the Impaler’. Typically a victim was impaled alive, through the rectum, and in suspension.

Romania does have some dark pockets of history. Catalin, there is an old meatworks in Bucharest where a terrible pogrom took place. Do you know this location?

Very sinsiter looking diggs.. you did a good job with it. Have you been inside?

great colours and composition
nice work

Awesome Photograph- purple depicts the sinister – great light

I love the dark tones. Like Lizzie said., it has a purplish hue to it. Well done Catalin.

A real mood setter. Super Photo Catalin !!!

Very mysterious Catalin…..

I read all about Vlad in highschool (I have family in Romania) and was interested in hearing truth not fiction. Was gorey, sad, and interesting!!!
Thankyou for posting this Catalin-not many people really know how beautiful and interesting Romania can be.

Thank you very much Belinda, yes Romania is interesting and beautiful

WOW, I love it.
Does it have vampires in it??We have some in New Orleans. One day, I will come there, I might be 60 or 70, but that is okay.

Great shot Catalin!

Lovely choice of colour – overall quite unique portfolio… I’m very impressed by the amount of comments you get on each of your photos, you must have an extensive list of watchers!! :)

Catalin, you`ve really done this beautifully by capturing the chill of the legend. I was in this area briefly in 1968, but unfortunately missed the opportunity to see the castle. Hope to get there again.

beautiful image… beautiful monument… we should be very proud of those historical proofs… :)
