Photography Tips
If you want to include the stream of the water within your photo, especially polarizers are highly recommended, because they are making a huge difference here. Being able to see the stones beyond the surface is definitely a nice detail, but more importantly you are reducing the bright reflections in the water, which are grabbing quite a lot of attention you usually want to have on the castle instead.
