What an interesting structure. It certainly does resemble a castle. Is it the remnants of one?
That really is an fascinating building and I agree it looks like a castle. Whatever it is, you got a great shadow shot! Love your words, they're haunting and beautiful.
Finally home from work...I'm pooped, but had to check your shadow out and what an interesting little structure, evokes all kinds of mystery and magic...makes you wonder what spirits live there still and what childish imagination would build such a structure.
Wouldn't it have been fun as a child to be the princess of this keep, imagine the beautiful ponies we would have ridden all 'round the grounds...
Always the child at heart, how 'bout you friend.

Hey there, great SSS, old yet weary full of wonder of the old times, thank you for sharing :) cya MonikaROse
What a cool structure - curiosity has gotten us though...we'd have to explore - love the lamp post there too....so interesting!
What a funny little discovery. The building looks like it is on the verge of collapsing judging by the tilt of it. Unless you've tricked me and took the photo at an odd angle! It's a wonderfully unusual shadow shot Gemma! :)
The magic lamppost
casts its shadow and revives
crumbling foundations.
awesome structure.. what is it???
There's a lamppost and crumbling structure. Must be Cair Paravel!
It almost looks like a small replica of a castle turret. Great shadows!
Lovely find ... wonderful choice for this weeks shadow shots too.
Hugs and blessings,
what a strange place...but indeed great for a shadow shot...
