Description

High a'top Whitby Harbour stands the ancient Abbey. The barrow, a sacred burial ground sits before it. I made a promise to Denger a long time ago.. that I would get a shot of both together. So here it is. Shot taken on my lone wanderings last Saturday. Happy day for all. Hugs. Diane.

Like Goha you have brought centuries of peace with your shot. I love these ancient places. I used to sit for hours and listen to the stories from the stones. You photograph the beauty they paint as they tell them. Thanks for all the walls you climb and holes you fall in. Thanks for the rain that soaks you and the wind that tries to freeze your fingers to the camera. Thanks to all the photogs and all they risk for the perfect shots they share with us. It is MUCH appreciated. BJ
