Monty Python and The Holy Grail
Scene 21: Don't Go Near the Castle

ARTHUR: There! Look!
LANCELOT: What does it say?
GALAHAD: What language is that?
ARTHUR: Brother Maynard! You are a scholar.
MAYNARD: It's Aramaic!
GALAHAD: Of course! Joseph of Arimathea!
LANCELOT: 'Course!
ARTHUR: What does it say?
MAYNARD: It reads, 'Here may be found the last words of Joseph of Arimathea. He who is valiant and pure of spirit may find the Holy Grail in the Castle of aaarrrrgghhh'.
ARTHUR: What?
MAYNARD: '...The Castle of aaarrrrgghhh'.
BEDEVERE: What is that?
MAYNARD: He must have died while carving it.
LANCELOT: Oh, come on!!!
MAYNARD: Well, that's what it says.
ARTHUR: Look, if he was dying, he wouldn't bother to carve 'aarrggh'. He'd just say it!
MAYNARD: Well, that's what's carved in the rock!
GALAHAD: Perhaps he was dictating?
ARTHUR: Oh, shut up! Well, does it say anything else?
MAYNARD: No. Just 'aaarrrrgghhh...
LANCELOT: Aaaauuggghhhh?
ARTHUR: Aarrrgghhh...

Hello Viviane,
It's a nice little castle and the yellow flowers create a bright foreground that the cloudy day needed. The surrounding water creates a fine atmosphere. The note is more interesting than the average excerpts from Wikipedia, and you do refer to the source, according to the TE rules.
Best regards,
Gert

Hello dear Viviane,

Ha, ha! I love Monty Python and I suspect that we both share the same warped sense of humour! And thank you for including links to those two wonderful clips from the "Holy Grail"! Such fun!!

Castle Stalker is a rather spooky place and you have captured it perfectly here in somewhat dull weather and with an overcast sky. And I love how the foreground is brightened up by the yellow flowers of the gorse bushes.

Lovely!

Kind Regards,

John.
