The sun was high overhead but it was still hazy over the castle so not the best photo situation. But I was there :-)

Nice pics all, but I love the one "portrait" view with the tree branch framing the upper left corner of the shot. Fantastic!

So,
I still regret not doing what I'm about to suggest ... I was sick, sick, sick when we were in Hohenschwangau and just couldn't make myself get up early the 2nd day. On the first day we were there, I got up at 7a and ran up the hill-side to Neuschwanstein. The area up there was completely deserted. No one at the castle or near it, no one on the road and no barriers. I believe it would be easy (and legal from what I could tell) to get up there 7-7:30 am and take a few nice pics right next to the building. Better take a very wide angle lens, though.

Well, the weather in the morning was awful, so we did not get to the site until the sun was in a position that caused a lot of glare on the hood. Still it's a nice shot.
I also went to the alternate spot near Schwangau. I think I like that one better. George

Just got back. Here is pic I took at the Neuschwanstein Castle. IMHO, this spot offers a better angle than the nearby "official" spot.

If you're really adventurous, continue past the Marienbrücke and up a single track that climbs the hill behind ... doesn't remove any scaffolding, though

Photos from the official spot. I wish I had gotten closer to the castle. There are some great images from other members in this post.

Great photos - keep 'em coming!

This It has been done before (at night). See post #18 here for what the photo looks like (first page). As I recall, there is a "do not enter" sign at the beginning of the driveway (if you understand European signs), but there is nothing to stop you from driving up there during off hours.
