An early morning on a late summer day of the year 2022. The Schwerin Castle lay in a fantastic light in front of my image detail viewed by means of wide angle. You can see the castle garden with the castle fountain and the orangery behind it. Above this, two Victorias stand to the left and right of the stairways. This is followed by the body of the castle and the main tower towering over everything. The warm light enchanted me that morning. Moreover, the orangery of the castle was still little frequented by other art connoisseurs. During the reign of the dukes, the orangery was used to overwinter exotic plants. Today, during the summer months, visitors can indulge in coffee and tea as well as freshly baked cakes in one part of the building, the "Orangerie Café". This work of art has an invigorating and fresh effect on me. The composition of shapes and colors, conveys to me the joy and longing for further visits to this so extraordinary castle. This castle photography I would place in my home on a continuous unobstructed wall as a photo wallpaper.
