Duffus Castle, Moray ~ resplendent in rainbow light – stands on an elevated mound on what was once the north western shore of the Loch of Spynie. Over the years this loch silted up and was drained to be reclaimed as farmland. A deep moat surrounded the castle, which can still be seen, with a parapet wall and drawbridge. c.1140 to 1705

















Wonderful lighting! I love when you get a dark grey sky with a rainbow and bright sunshine, this is a beautiful capture.
first decent shot of this castle in 3 years
tbh the photo doesn’t do it justice was an amazing sight.
That’s the brightest rainbow I’ve ever seen. Lovely. Did you find the pot of gold?
