2. The pic said it is a castle in Scotland
I would think they would want to build a castle on the high ground, but that's just me.

3. oh wait a minute
that is ringing a bell. I knew it reminded me of something . . .

The Lady of The Lake.

I wonder if this castle has been used in film :shrug:

also comes to mind the scene in The Lion in Winter when Eleanor of Aquitaine arrives by boat
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0063227/

actually, I can see where a castle by the water would be fairly easy to defend, as the enemy comes down those mountains they would be easy pickings and it would not be so easy to attack from water, right?

4. This one's in the middle of the Hudson River, south of Beacon.


It's falling apart from neglect now.
