The pinkish color at the bottom left of the picture is a face. I have no clue how that happened. I was taking a picture of the castle and didn’t even notice it until we got home. I think it adds an eerie, ghostly feel to the picture. Medieval Times in Dallas, Texas.
anyone for a game of noughts and crosses?
So maybe it hasn’t been quite this cold lately, but still it’s been bloody cold in Melbourne! This is an edit of the Chapel at Monsalvat in Eltham, Victoria, Australia. Used a filter in Photoshop to achieve the red coloured bushes and also added the snow using another plug-in. Montsalvat consists of a series of unique and distinctive buildings in the European style set in over 12 acres of parkland. A lot of materials came from the many beautiful buildings of Melbourne that were being demolished to make way for modernization. The addition of mud bricks, rammed earth, the local mud stone , bush timbers, and a great deal of hard labour, Justus Jörgensen’s vision took form.

Towering over the surrounding countryside in the heart of Scotland’s Braveheart country Stirling Castle is one of the great royal residences of Scottish history. A visit to this famous medieval castle is an essential part of any visit to central Scotland. It rivals even Edinburgh Castle for its sheer magnificence. It looks spectacular during the day, and enchanting when it is illuminated in a foggy night. / / / / Framed Print /

This is one of a few shots I took at Bodiam Castle last year 2008 they had a Medieval day there, I was still getting to grips with the lens I had and this was one of the best I took.
beverweerd castle, near the dutch city of utrecht. originally built as a simple fortified tower, the building was constantly extended and expanded untill the 16th century. in the 19th century, the complex got a make-over in neo gothic style, resulting in the large windows and fake battlements but despite the kitchy 19th century look, the castle is still mostly an original medieval structure. The two towers, the main eye catchers of the castle, date from the 13th century and used to flank the courtyard, untill that was replaced by the 17th century wing you see here. The castle is now in a state of disrepair. It was being renovated and restored a while ago by arealestate coorporation, but due to massive fraud and misconduct in the staff, this project came to a halt and i have no idea what the current state of the building is.
Just to the south of Dunfermline’s High Street lies one of Scotland’s most unusual churches. The Abbey Church of Dunfermline, Fife, Scotland is two very distinct churches, joined in the middle. The effect is unexpected but attractive. The Abbey Church, as the name suggests, was the church serving Dunfermline Abbey. A church probably already existed on this site in 1070, when King Malcolm III married Queen Margaret. Margaret liked Dunfermline so much she set up a Benedictine foundation here. This was later transformed by her son King David I into what was intended to become the most important abbey in Scotland. Work was started in 1128 on the Abbey Church and the nave still survives as the western half of the building on view today. Dunfermline was renowned as the burial place of many Scottish Kings and Queens. The first was Queen Margaret (later St Margaret) in 1093, and the last Royal internment was Robert, the infant son of James VI and Anne of Denmark, in 1602. The most famous burial, and certainly most celebrated, was Robert the Bruce. He was buried in Dunfermline Abbey in 1329, minus his heart, which was taken in a lead casket on a posthumous visit to the Holy Land before being buried at Melrose Abbey. During the building of the new Abbey Church in 1819 bones believed to be those of Robert the Bruce, because of their position and because of a cut breastbone (to allow the removal of his heart), were discovered. Robert was reinterred in the centre of the new Abbey Church, 560 years after his death. His grave now lies under the magnificent pulpit covered by a large brass grave marker. And to celebrate his presence the words “KING ROBERT THE BRUCE” were formed with large stone lettering around the four sides of the crown of the tower. Subtle it isn’t, but striking it most certainly is. Famous Births, Marriages, & Burials / Saint Margaret of Scotland was buried here in 1093; on 19 June 1250 following her Canonization her remains were disinterred and placed in a reliquary at the high altar. Her husband, Malcolm III of Scotland remains were also disinterred, and buried next to Margaret. Both Duncan II of Scotland 1094, and his wife Ethelreda, were buried here Edgar of Scotland was buried here in 1107 Both Alexander I of Scotland 1124, and his queen Sybilla de Normandy 1122, were buried here David I of Scotland was buried here (1153) along with his queen Maud, Countess of Huntingdon (1130) Malcolm IV of Scotland was buried here in 1165 Alexander III of Scotland (1286), was buried here, with his first wife Margaret of England (1275) and their sons David of Scotland (1281) and Alexander of Scotland (1284) Elizabeth de Burgh, wife of Robert I of Scotland, was buried here in 1327 Robert the Bruce was buried, in 1329 Matilda of Scotland, daughter of Robert I of Scotland, was buried here in 1353 Anabella Drummond, wife of Robert III and mother of James I was buried here in 1401 Robert Stewart, Duke of Albany was buried here in 1420 Birthplace, in 1600, of Charles I, the last British monarch born in Scotland. David Lindsay, 1st Lord Balcarres, son of John Lindsay of Balcarres, Lord Menmuir and father of Alexander Lindsay, 1st Earl of Balcarres, was married here in 1611 James Bruce (bishop) Camera: Canon EOS 450D (Digital Rebel XSi in the USA) BEST VIEWED LARGER Three bracketed JPGs converted to HDR in Photomatix.

Gamla stan (The Old City), until 1980 officially Staden mellan broarna (The Town between the Bridges), is the old town of Stockholm, Sweden. Gamla stan consists primarily of the island Stadsholmen. The surrounding islets Riddarholmen, Helgeandsholmen, and Strömsborg are officially part of, but not colloquially included in, Gamla stan. The word “stan” is simply a contraction of the word “staden” (“sta’n”), meaning “the city.” / The town dates back to the 13th century, and consists of medieval alleyways, cobbled streets, and archaic architecture. North German architecture has had a strong influence in the Old Town’s construction. / from Wikipedia
