I love Harry Potter as well. I did a couple of Harry Potter themed shots, when the film came out.
Here is a Cambridge hallway edited to make it look like Hogwarts:
And here is a ceiling in Oxford, which actually has stars in it:
I too took pictures of my tickets! I got sucked into the HP vortex because I wanted to know what all the hoopla was about and I've been hooked ever since!
@mittens is this actuly the castle.. looks like it @msk1p2 Awwh @honeybees looking like lily potter there @bec01 well.. same question as i asked 'Mittens' @judithg Just perfect
is it Hogwarts? not quite...this is Fettes College, one of the most prestigious boarding schools in the UK...voted top school in Scotland by various bodies...and one of the three architectural models for Hogwarts in J K Rowling's Harry Potter stories. A spectacularly Victorian Gothic building, I thought it looked good framed by the wrought iron and chains on the gate...oh! and Tony Blair went to school here...
...a magical building with many towers and turrets: some of the Victorian Gothic architectural detail of the main tower of Fettes College (as mentioned above, one of the buildings that inspired JK Rowling's Hogwart). This main building by David Bryce (built 1863-9) blends the design of a Loire château with elements of the 19th century Scottish Baronial. According to the school's website, the combination of styles and the site of the building led a modern architectural expert to praise it as "undeniably one of Scotland's greatest buildings"

LIke Rebecca's, mine was taken at the Harry Potter Theme Park in Universal Studios, Orlando, FL. It was very crowded when I was there, too, but I'm glad I got to experience it. Butterbeer was an interesting drink.

Relashio
"rilascio" It. - to release, to relax, to issue
Releases a jet of fiery sparks. Underwater, this spell fires a jet of boiling water.
Harry used this spell against the Grindylows during the second task (GF26).
Note that this incantation was given a rather different result in HBP10 when Ogden used it to knock Marvolo backward - away from Merope, whom he was attempting to strangle. This is not consistent with the previous usage of this incantation.
The incantation was again given a different result when Hermione used it to force the chains to withdraw into the arms of the chained chair (DH13) and when Ron attempted to use it on Pettigrew's silver hand (although this last didn't work) (DH23).
Harry used this to release the dragon from its chains in Gringotts' high-security area (DH25).
Here you can see my son and I practicing this very useful spell... :-)
We are pretty nutty about HP in our house and so my 6 year decided she wanted a harry potter birthday party - these are the invites I made...
and the movie posters I shot while waiting for the end....
