Description
This is one from my wife's camera. She says that she does her best work when I am at least 200 miles away.
This is what remains of the Preceptory Church of the Knights Templar of St John of Jerusalem at Torphicen,West Lothian Scotland. Only the crossing of the knave and apse is left. but there is enough left to give a really preternatural calm. The 'newer' church next door (i.e. later than 1200) has an ancient Sanctuary Stone in the churchyard....

The hazey look makes it seem almost like an oil painting, which I find very attractive in this photo.

Thank you folks...and the light really was hazy. All that history must have an effect on the light quality!

I love the window and for the limited lighting the detail of the wall came out really well. I bet if you stayed too long "200 miles away" she would send out the bloodhounds looking for you
