Great shot. I love castles. I've only ever used a simple point and shoot myself.

@Michael Skorulski: I loved my point and shoot - my pictures almost always came out great. Now I'm trying to learn about f-stops, apertures, etc and sometimes it isn't as much fun!

This is one place I did not visit in my two trips to Okinawa. Is this the place where they have that newly built replica in red?

@Japanalia: Yes. I didn't realize it was a replica until I was there. It is a beautiful structure, but I was disappointed it wasn't original. There's one place where they've laid glass over the floor and you can see bits of the old castle.
