Snow & Sunset at Burg Linn

It was a wonderful day, the sun shines and the roads were covered with snow. A breezy afternoon with a nice temperature of only minus 1 degree. We could actually walk around without getting our fingers frost bitten. :p

So my friends and I decided to go out to get some fresh air and enjoy the mild temperature before it goes back into the deep freeze. We've planned to go to Burg Linn, a water castle located just less than 20 minutes from Krefeld central station. I've been there during autumn and spring but have never experienced the view of the castle during winter.

So I got my camera and tripod ready to take some beautiful shots at the castle. We headed out to the castle just few hours before the sunset so that we get to enjoy the beautiful view of the sun rays painting the snow.Oh how lovely.... :)

Walking towards the castle...

Oh such a magnificent view...

Background untuk photo shoot sangattt.

X payah nak panjat pokok sangatlah Darwin..

Oh Snow...Let's Jump! 

Before going into the castle...

The entry to the castle cost about €5. 

With a student card you only need to pay €2.50.

The castle is surrounded by water which is now frozen due to the cold weather...

Kalau tebal skit boleh ice-skating atas tu kan.. :)

Staircase going up the tower...

Ahh the wonderful panoramic view from the tower..

Tempat and lighting sesuai sangat untuk photoshoot...

So terhasil lah gambar bajet cover album band... :p

And gambar syok sendiri...

And gambar syok tiga orang...

Favourite group pic...

Nasib baik bawak tripod gambar turun tangga pon boleh ada semua orang...

In one of the rooms in the castle..

Ada wall carpet, antique tables, cannon balls, armor just to name a few..

Stepping into the kitchen...

The thing that caught our eyes was an oil lamp (left in the pic) which was hanging from the ceiling. 

The length and height can be adjusted through this saw-like metal. Very interesting!!!

Beer barrel, waffle maker and antique iron...

Gambar posing depan cermin pon ada...

Mirror mirror on the wall, who's the hottest of them all... :p

We were trying to recreate poses of the people in the old paintings...

Tschüss und mach's gut!

When it snows in Krefeld...

It was -5 outside. Still bearable compared to -12 that I've experienced before this. My housemate, Adam was very enthusiastic on going out and experience the snow in Krefeld. He wrote a status on Facebook asking us out to enjoy the snow and the rest is history.

So yesterday evening at about 3.30pm we headed out to Stadtpark Fischeln in Krefeld. The park which has an area of about 130 hectares is one of the biggest parks in Krefeld. It provides a beautiful scenery especially during autumn.

So we thought of exploring the park, leaving footprints as we walk, making snow angels and taking some photos in the snow. :)
