Castle Fallais (Belgium)
The history of this castle goes back to the 11th century when there was already a medieval stronghold on this spot.
The present castle however was largely built in the 13th century with restoration works taking place in the 19th and 20th century.
(PS : after taking this picture (on private land, I admit), I had to run for my life as I was attacked by a gang of 20 bulls gone wild !)

Wonderful combination of this classy castle and the trio of grazing cows ... the scene has a mideaval feel to it for me ... technically perfect - of course. What a story, what luck that you got away :-))))) What photographers go through to get a good shot !!!!!cheers, Adele

Very beautiful with the cows, but a little bit dark, I think.BW Wolfgang
