Very impressive piece of architecture, not easy to build but easy to keep the baddies away. Nice photo composition to show it's impressive aspect.

Location
The photo was taken in San Marino - the oldest republic on Earth, about 1700 years of soveraignty.Time
I think it was around midday in September.Lighting
I count myself lucky that the sun clothed the castle with light.Equipment
This was shot on a Nikon D60 with AF-S Nikkor 18-200 mm 1:3,5-5,6.Inspiration
I knew about this fortresses and went up the hill for a long while to see one of two impregnable castles constructed for senturies ago.Editing
I used ACDSee editing and corrected some of colors.In my camera bag
Beside of the camera usually i have only a pair of lenses and vintage lightweight tripod.Feedback
To find the weirdest subject matter sometimes you have to climb up a mountain. Don't hesitate to walk up skyward. It is well worth the effort.
