Out of Context Landmarks

Worth 1,000’s recent photoshop contest asked competitors to take key landmarks and relocated them. Some of them work well (Lincoln rowing a boat) and other’s don’t seem to quite get the concept.
Back in 1997 when I visited Germany to see my friend Cate, one the castles we visited was Burg Vichering, a small 16th century moated castle with a striking look that has been location for a couple of movies. The castle had it’s own “photoshop contest” of sorts — where people sent in their own artwork of the castle of Burg Vichering traveling around the world visiting other landmarks. Pretty entertaining.
