Un giorno sono andato a fotografare il castello di Burgos e cercando un punto elevato sono salito con fatica, con tutta la mia pesante attrezzatura compreso un grosso cavalletto, su uno scosceso costone che sovrasta il piccolo paese omonimo, mentre armeggiavo per inquadrare al meglio il castello un pastore che pascola le pecore nei terreni sottostanti mi vide e si avvicinò dicendomi “Ma lei la conosce la leggenda del fantasma di Don Blas?” e io “No mai sentita” Allora gliela racconto io, un mio antenato pastore anche lui, un giorno in cerca di una pecora smarrita, entrò casualmente nei sotterranei del Castello, mentre vagava nella penombra dei corridoi delle rovine, il suo piede urtò qualcosa. Aveva con se dei fiammiferi e un piccolo quadernetto su cui annotava le sue magre uscite, con i fiammiferi accese qualche foglio per farsi luce e con grande meraviglia vide che sul pavimento c'era un paiolo ricolmo d'oro. Stava per afferrarlo per portarlo via quando improvvisamente si sentì un boato, la terra e le pareti iniziarono a tremare. Il mio parente che si chiamava Ciccittu ricordatosi della leggenda del fantasma di Don Blas che aveva sentito da bambino, fuggì immediatamente terrorizzato. Raggiunse il paese e si recò subito dal parroco pregandolo di leggergli le sacre scritture per liberarlo dallo spavento. La storia raccontata da Ciccittu incuriosì il prete al punto che quella sera stessa si recò al castello in compagnia del sacrestano. Con i paramenti sacri, l'acqua benedetta e i libri necessari per gli esorcismi i due religiosi si incamminarono verso il castello con l'intenzione di impadronirsi del tesoro custodito nelle sue stanze. Seguendo le indicazioni di Ciccittu raggiunsero il tesoro, ma una volta di fronte al prezioso paiolo il sacrestano non seppe resistere alla tentazione di afferrarlo. Come le sue mani toccarono il recipiente apparve il terribile fantasma di Don Blas. Il prete si adoperò immediatamente per pronunciare le formule sacre che lo avrebbero scacciato, ma non fece in tempo e il fantasma riversò una pioggia di fuoco sui due malcapitati bruciandoli all'istante. Da allora, per quanto si sa, nessuno si è mai più cimentato nell'impresa. Io da questo posto dove ci troviamo adesso, all'imbrunire, vedo sulle mura del castello una figura scura che mi fa rabbrividire nonostante io non abbia paura di niente, non ci crede? Aspetti che scenda la sera e vedrà, si voltò e camminando lesto si recò al suo gregge che pascolava poco più in basso, io ho pensato che stesse farneticando comunque ho aspettato l'imbrunire ma niente non vedevo nulla, allora ho preso la mia attrezzatura e sono andato via, però la storia mi rimuginava in testa e sono ritornato su quel posto altre volte e sempre niente me ne andavo infreddolito dicendomi che ero proprio scemo a credere a quella storia, alla quarta volta quando stavo per andare via perché le tenebre incombevano nell'aria frizzante e pungente l'ho visto che si ergeva sugli spalti con la sua figura imponente e terribile, un brivido mi è corso giù per la schiena con le mani tremanti sono riuscito a fare una fotografia ma subito dopo il fantasma è scomparso, ero incredulo e ancora tremante anche per la gelida serata raccattai le mie cose e senza neanche riguardare se avevo effettivamente fotografato un fantasma scesi il pendio e ripartì lesto per casa mia. Alcuni penseranno che questa è una storiella che mi sono inventato, no questa è una storia vera.

I read the caption carefully and I asserted the photo, photos that I like for the colors and contrast of the ridge and Castle in the foreground with the background. As for the dark history, know that they are "like St. Thomas" but I believe you for the simple reason that you are a person, a friend (albeit virtual) exquisite ;-) infinite compliments and I wish you a good Weekend :-P

What a wonderful place and I'm glad to know that there are places so in Italy with regard to your story, I think there are some things that for some reason unknown to us can not explain but it is good that they remain so.
a dear greeting.

Matter is the great illusion. The matter, that is, manifests itself in form and form is a ghost. (Jack London)
a pleasure to read your captions, a great pleasure to watch your shots. Greetings Rino.

Hello Emme
Fantastic image.
Fabulous the castle of Burgos and just as splendid the background with the nuances of the sky very intriguing
beautiful the location and the atmosphere that reminds a little
Highlander.
Excellent management of the lights with beautiful contrasts of color between the foreground and the pet background a result of considerable visual strength
if it is true the story narrated is from fear, if it is not true is afraid equally for the skill of your narrative.
Great compliments for both the photo and the story narrated with the Piglio of a big writer
A dear greeting and a good evening
Roberto

When I see the mega captions I give up and step forward I usually do not read even small, but I'm intrigued too much with that specter on the eyelash, in the way it is told by the author is really an image that makes you think a lot and makes you reflect , I wanted to be there too
Bravo!
A greeting Steve

Giuseppe, you're unbeatable! A true master of the thrill! :-o
by Photointerpreter I deduce that the ghost was of a really petite build! :-D Better not find it in front anyway... ;-)
suggestive tale and engaging photo shoot! Always at the top! I give you my sincere congratulations Joseph!
A soon,
Simone

Beautiful photo and your ability to make me read the whole caption.
You intrigued me about this mysterious castle.
From Wikipedia:
"Guglielmo I Salusio IV, after having stormed the castle, according to some sources he committed rape to the wife of Judge Turritano, the Catalan Prunisinda [3] , who perished shortly in Santa Igia."
Pure legend This picture, could also be female this ghost then. Very good what to say, charming.

Good point of recovery, the figure greatly enhances the scene and allows a good story, difficult to comment on the colors of a photo to the supernatural :-D but I would see here very well a version in bn with a little ' grain.
Congratulations, hello

But surely that is true and who is questioning it? :-D Never as in this occasion text and image merge into a unique sense of engrossing imagination. Everyone is led to retrace personal sensations and draw their own emotions. It seems to me pleonastic to repeat myself on what already expressed by predecessors Juzini, I add only that Dear Emme you have a inherent ability to involve anyone who visions your production. Considerable work in everything.
Bye Josh ;-)

Great Photoracaccount, the caption is compelling, the image requires a careful observation with the grandiose structure in ruins and that sky so important. Congratulations, I like it very much. A dear greeting. Silvio. :-)
