[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is a detail of the castle of Buda in the heart of the Hungarian capital.

This part of the walls were restored amazingly, but nowadays tourists cannot see it because it is closed officially.

One afternoon I decided "discovering" the ruins of the Zwinger Bazaar (coming soon on TE) and this part of the wall.

I loved this walk and I was really excited when I saw this machicolation stairs of the wall (in Hungarian it is called 'gyilokjáró' => mirror translation: "killing path" or "killing sidewalk")

I liked the composition and hope you also enjoy it.

Hello Jalab.
The low pov you chose is excellent but I think the B&W don't enrich so much this shot. I like the central, but a-symetric, composition.
Best regards.
Bobo.
