It's certainly an interesting place,isn't it?
It radiates a somewhat 'Unsettling' vibe but that might be just a 'personal thing'! ( I'm a Druid and things relating to christianity bother us! )
It's a 'Good Show' of a photographic presentation though,Jan!

Comment from Regina E.H-Ariel


Medieval buildings are always special and yes that is the style all over the world from that time - great idea to hold it in black and white so we are concentrated on the form and your angle and position is fantastic, putting usinto the hall way ourselves - great frame choice to add the left waling place showing the construct combination of that time - super clear and sharp, excellent contrast and special content , thanks for sharing.

Janice,
A beautiful black & white picture of the Cloisters of Fountains Abbey a Word Heritage ruin of a Cistercian monastery founded in 1132 in North Yorkshire (God's own county). Beautiful & artistic composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus. Good luck in the contest.
Susan

Just woww. Such splendid architecture dating back so many centuries. Yeah- this brilliant still from one of the best preserved medieval monasteries is a fantastic composition. The arches, to me, are so elegant and the depth has only accentuated their charm. The patterns due to light on the floor are another highlight. It should win the contest- my best wishes. No six stars left- standing applause

A great looking image posted here into the competition! I went there as part of a school trip way back in the early 60's. Your fine, full and angular composition grants us an enjoyable view of some of the incredible curves inside the building. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!

Comment from Way West


Very well done black and white photo that has excellent depth and clarity of details. I like the various shades of grays and whites and the contradiction of visible windows on one side and the patches of light on the other. Wonderful composition. Best wishes for the contest!
