Photographer's Note
Most of visitors consider Turaida brick castle as main dominance of Museum Reserve and its visually most impressive element. Forepart of this imaginative ship is formed by northen forecastle gate tower, main tower, which is the highest one is like a spar in the middle of the ship but back of the ship is southern forecastle with towershaped southern section.
From the view place of the main tower you can see the unique landscape of picturesque Gauja valley and territory of Turaida Museum Reserve. But it is through another window.

Hello Alise. This is a beautiful photo in which you made good use of the foreground brick wall to have this natural frame out on the countryside and the foreground portion of the castle. Well exposed with a good DOF and strikingly vibrant colors, a nice shot.
