Johnstown Castle Jan 8



We had a long visit today at the Johnstown Castle.  It was built in 1810 for the Morgan family. It possesses three lakes and many, many levels of terraced gardens.  The three of us walked the entire grounds this morning.  The air around the castle is filled with the sounds of waterfalls, birds calling out to one another and the rustle of of the wind as it approaches through the trees.  It is truly a magical place.   The shot above is from the lake.  The water was so still that is appears to be a mirror reflecting the trees above it. The sight was almost like looking out of the earth at the trees and sky above.  The water was so clear that we could see the clouds moving in its reflection.
