This fall I am offering free downloadable desktop wallpaper calendars of my artwork. November's photo is from my travels here in Germany. It was from a recent visit to castle in the Moselle River area in central Germany. Burg Eltz is an amazing German castle. It is beautiful and well preserved. One of it's most fascinating facts is that it is still owned by the family that built it.
This castle trip was truly entertaining. There was a beautiful hike through the autumn trees that opens up to the view pictured in this photo. What a beautiful sight to see after […]

Whatever the purposes, I enjoy photographing them as much as I can. They make for great landscapes and beautiful backgrounds for portraiture.
