Outside Again by duncmc

Thornton Abbey Gatehouse viewed from the outside as we were leaving. I really liked the place, it’s quite a gem and only seven miles from the Humber Bridge. Despite its being almost my doorstep I only discovered it while browsing images on Flickr.

Eight hundred year old remains of the octagonal chapterhouse at Thornton Abbey in Lincolnshire. Very similar to this shot – I can’t really choose between them.

Groynes at high tide on the beach at Cleethorpes. The lighthouses at Spurn Point can just be seen in the far distance to the left of the marker.

Choir Of Angels

Choir Of Angels by duncmc

The Angel Choir in Lincoln Cathedral (which at one time was the tallest building in the world).

The cathedral is a great building. I took lots of pictures but wasn’t really happy with any of them. This one has grown on me since one of my Flickr contacts commented that this ranks with my best. The interior was technically very challenging – under expose the surfaces or over expose the windows. Ideally it needs double exposures or some decent off camera lighting. Either way more thought, time and kit required to make a really decent job of it.
