This week's Hot Pic: "Haut Koenigsbourg," by Alan Tobias, Richmond, Virginia

Alan writes: "I took this photograph in August at the Haut Koenigsbourg castle in the Alsace region of France, using my new Canon A40. I liked the patterns created by all of the different levels and turrets of the castle. Because of the narrowness of the passage, I had to step back into a doorway to get the entire tower in the picture. I think the doorway adds a nice frame to the photograph."
