Gylen Castle, Karrera

I tried to do something a little different when photographing Gylen Castle on Karrera - built in 1582 by the Clan McDougall. Such a lovely castle ruin, so beautifully perched on the edge of the land, sitting high above the sea. Bracken was a feature all around the island - green, lush and very tall in parts.

This looks rather lovely, beautiful layers.

Nice focus choice, makes it remote and mysterious.

I like the focus on the ferns, great shot!

I like the suggestive view of the castle, the way you might perceive it peering over the edge to see if the battlements were armed.
