A Castle

Somewhere along the road to Geneve.....

I like your composition, that you included the rail tracks in it. Kind of like looking at the past-versus-present from the POV of about 150 years ago, when railroads were like BAM we're here now.

And while the grainy texture to it may or may not have been intentional, I like it nonetheless

That....and there appears to be something like a skyscraper....or silo....or some tall slender object....in that misty background.

Pretty cool find.

Thanks for the comments......Here's a couple of web sites regarding the Chateau de Chillon. I took this shot back in the 70's and I don't remember what may be in the distance.

It has such a cool old look to it, like it was taken 100 plus years. Did you scan this from the print or negative?

From a contact sheet of 36 - 1.5"x1" shots, can't find the negs..........

Very nice composition - and the scan makes it extra old in the way it looks which I like a great deal. There is nothing there that might suggest it was taken in the 70s, you could as well claim the photo was much, much older. Were you going past in a train? Is that how this photo came about?

Thanks you, but I don't want to be any older that I am........

Touring Europe, driving through with a van. It was the hip thing to do back then.

Glad you like it.
