Eilean Donan Castle
Eilean Donan Castle one of the Iconic Scotish Castles was just a magic place to visit and photograph. I spent close to 9 hours taking in the surrounds, the atmosphere and the serenity and of course the odd photo or two. Here is another shot which I kind of like.

Bartosz Madejski
You have just added another brick to the wall with this great photo ;-) I live so near (well, that is if I get a car one day) nad have absolutely no good shots of that castle. Honestly, one more and I’ll go and take it!
Craig Goldsmith
Bartosz – I’m sure if I take a look I can find another one to share, it is more a matter of sorting through the sheer volume of the photos.
evlloyd
Damn!
I really like this shot, Truthfully, theres not a single thing i find wrong with it!!!
Love it!
evlloyd
BTW, Was there any tonemapping with this shot?, The colours are just so vibrant!!!
Craig Goldsmith
Yes there was some tone mapping for this shot, I just playing with it till I like the final image.

Stunning capture – the reflection and those colours!
Paul Quinn
Brings back great memorys of my holidays in Scotland Craig, you really need to frame this picture!
In fact I might even buy it for myself! :)
Jeff Burns
Unreal photo I love the reflections and the colors
Definately one of my favorites
Craig Goldsmith
Paul – I’m definitely going to have one up on my wall, I’m just not sure which one and in what format yet.
Simon Fallon
How popular are you Craig! This has almost become your signature image, and why not. For someone to take what’s probably the world’s most photographed castle (maybe behind Disneyland’s Sleeping Beauty castle) and create a memorable shot like this one is really inspiring.
Craig Goldsmith
Thanks for the compliment Simon, I think this one is running a close second behind this version of the castle. http://www.redbubble.com/works/show/63774
Its a photographic gold mine, it looks good from almost any angle.
Colin12
This is awsome Craig. I like the look of those cards too.
Regards Colin
Peter Hammer

Mark Snelson
An amazing shot. That reflection is superb and the exposure is spot on.
Andrew Robertson
Beautiful photograph Craig. I visited Eilean Donan castle last year and it’s an awesome sight. Particularly like cos it’s in Scotland! Biased or what?? He-he! Love your work. Love how the main part of the castle is bathed in orange – exceptional.
Asia Barsoski
Love the color contrast and reflection and lightplay!
goth009

Walter Quirtmair

Phil Scott
The Highlander castle captured to perfection….
Great colours, capturing the mood of a fantastic place.
TheiaPhotography
just a stunning image, and the colours are beuatiful
thank you for adding me to ur watch list
Craig Goldsmith
Fliptophead – It’s been featured in a number of films and tv shows, I didn’t realise but its apparently one of the most popular scottish castles.
Thanks Walter and Theia – the colours were simply brilliant and I’m glad I was there to capture it and that the photos for once fully realise the scene and reproduce what I saw when I was there.
nkodd
Stunning!!
RonniLeigh
Very stunning this picture reminds me of a fantasy picture where magical things happen. It’s fun to see a picture and imagine it in another aspect then it really is. Either way iit is a stunning picture! It would be so cool to travel to places like this.

kmargetts
Fantastic! I have wanted to visit this Castle for years! Maybe later in the year i am going to make it there and just hope my photos are as good as yours! Well done its a great photo.
Craig Goldsmith
I highly recommend it, it is sooooo beautiful up there it’s just breathtaking.
boondockbabe01
It is wonderful..I have to agree with the others, the color is breath taking. I have always been quite fond of castles and have wanted to go see one. I would have to say this deffinatly hightens my idea of going to see a castle. lol Job well done!
Craig Goldsmith
Well Rebecca I saw a lot of castles on my trip probably over 15 but I haven’t really stopped to count and it you also count old churches, abbeys, cathedrals and ruins then lots more. And I have to say this and Mont Saint Michel were my definite favourites and hence I’ve posts shots of both and none so far of the other 20 odd that we visited. So don’t expect them all to be this good, as I’d hate for you to be disappointed when you got there.
EOS20
Wonderful shot! :)

Picture perfect! Great for desktop wallpaper!
Craig Goldsmith
tryingtofind – yes this shot had a mild HDR process to it, just to help capture the full Dynamic range
blod – no I wasn’t using any filters, not even the UV filters I’d usually have I decided I wanted the sharpest images possible so remove all my filters for nearly my whole trip
