弗蘭肯瑞士 （Franconian Switzerland），德國最美麗夢幻的度假高地，即在攝影師Patrick Monatsberge家門前。喜愛拍照的他，絲毫不浪費每日所見景致所薰陶出來的美感，為土地拍出黑森林童話般的風景。

I bet you have already seen many pictures of this beauty but did you know that Neuschwanstein Castle (German: Schloss Neuschwanstein, pronounced [nɔʏˈʃvaːnʃtaɪn], Southern Bavarian: Schloss Neischwanstoa) is a 19th-century Romanesque Revival palace on a rugged hill above the village of Hohenschwangau near Füssen in southwest Bavaria, Germany. The palace was commissioned by Ludwig II of Bavaria as a retreat and in honour of Richard Wagner. Ludwig paid for the palace out of his personal fortune and by means of extensive borrowing, rather than Bavarian public funds. The castle was intended as a home for the king, until he died in 1886. It was open to the public shortly after his death. Since then more than 61 million people have visited Neuschwanstein Castle. More than 1.3 million people visit annually, with as many as 6,000 per day in the summer. If you take a closer look you even can spot another castle in this picture. Do you know the name of this one also?

Patrick正職是一名業務，於是他總是抓緊時間，在周末或休假時拍照。他到處旅行，但也沒有非得去到遙遠美境的執念，他最喜歡的地方之一，即是離家不遠的森林。

攝影師喜愛森林，他會在清晨迷霧籠罩的森林裡來場遠足，然後在裡頭吃起隨身攜帶的羊角麵包與熱咖啡。無論行走或佇留，他總能在森林裡遇見深刻的寧靜，並且感覺自然的生命力與人的渺小。

他常引用名人名言來總結他所感受到的一切──無論是Evaristo Nugkuag Ikanan的「森林不是我們的資源，而是生命本身。這是我們唯一能生活的地方」，或是Shanti說的「一天結束的時候，你的腳應該變髒，頭髮凌亂，而眼睛閃閃發光」，都在在訴說著他在山中的所悟所感。

除了森林，小時候曾經夢想當獸醫的他，也攝下了在森林裡遇見的動物。他會盡可能靠近那些偶見的山鹿、野熊、高地牛與松鼠，以水平於雙方眼睛的高度，讓這些看起來不怕生、也不令人害怕的動物直視鏡頭，這也讓他的動物肖像顯露出獨有個性。

在歷史文化悠久的德國，就有約2萬座城堡點綴其中，更別說其他國家了。Patrick也總能靜待時機，捕捉不同時代、不同型態的城堡在森林裡的美麗模樣。例如當他如願等到城堡讓山嵐雲霧繚繞，留下了宛如傳說中既冷峻又顯神秘魔幻的黑森林童話氛圍時，可是比平安夜的孩子更開心。
