Comments on photos by Kevin Schmidt

On the slope of the Rüdesheimer Berg stands the ruins of Ehrenfels Castle. It was built at the beginning of the 13th century. The large shield wall with its two corner towers (mountain side) and remains of a three-story palas (Rhine side) are still preserved. The ruined condition of the castle is due to war damage in the 17th century. Since 2002, the castle ruins have been part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site "Upper Middle Rhine Valley".

Hello Ferdinand,
thank you for your praise! Yes, the extremely dynamic cloud cover repeatedly created interesting plays of light and shadow. It still took a little while until the castle ruins were fully illuminated by the sun.

Best regards, Kevin

Sometimes the simplest things are worth a photo!

Yes, there are sometimes those moments when you feel the need to stop and document the situation photographically - a typical example of that! ;-)

Best regards, Kevin

Once Wilhelm I. ruled as King over the Kingdom of Prussia, from 1871 as Emperor over the German Empire. At Porta Westfalica, one of many Kaiser Wilhelm monuments was erected in his honor at the end of the 19th century. Today it is the landmark of the city of Porta Westfalica.

Thank you very much, Helmut! :-) I discovered this perspective out of necessity because the monument simply didn’t fit into any landscape-oriented image due to its vertical dimensions. So I walked around up there a bit, and suddenly I spontaneously liked this rear view: The emperor looks out over the land he once ruled – and the viewer looks over his shoulder from a respectful distance and hidden behind trees! The trees integrated into the image are meant to distract from the fact that the monument doesn’t fully fit into the frame. ;-)

Greetings from Saalfeld
