What a great photo. Old structures such as this small church have such character. It makes my mind wonder what stories it could say if only it could speak. The stormy cluds above and the peaceful valley below sort of work as an approapiate symbolism for this piece. Thank you for sharing.

C est adorable,l'eglise est entour par ses administr..lol Magnifique !

Oh my God Di this one brings tears to my eyes. This is just a perfect shot in every way. But it's just those ancient headstones that always get to me. We have travel so far from that time it's sometimes scary. Your pov and those incredible clouds it was worth the climb. Thank Sir D for push LoL. Have a grand eventime....Chocolate Hugs:0)bonita

Gorgeous light and colors. What a fantastic view. Fantastic POV too!!

An interesting view of the old church that we do not normally see. Excellent photo Di.

The only word that comes to mind is homey. It looks so welcoming and intimate like an old friend. Beautiful shot, thank you both. BJ

Excellent compo, lights and colours. And the old graves all arround this lonely church seem so quiet in such a place . . .

A Serene and very humbling shot!!!

First of all, your description of taking this brought horrors to mind when I conjured up the image of poor SirDavid, just following surgery and recovering still, hoisting you up on his shoulders or boosting you over his head so you could get this shot. It just seemed like asking if he could move in with these "residents..." Anyway, that leads to the view here... When I look at these little, old cemeteries, I tend to see them as "isolated villages." You have the church - big and imposing, the center of things and the most important place in the village. Each headstone represents a cottage or abode. I can either feel good that this little village is packed with friendship and warmth where everyone knows their neighbor, or I can feel sad because it is so crowded and full that there is no room to raise an elbow, take a fresh breath or find privacy in your own backyard. I know... where do I get this stuff and when will I shut up...? LOL. Bottom line is this is a lovely shot. Nicely seen, well taken and full of possibilities.

Majestic photo!!

Very beautiful and interesting capture!

Oh Diane, this is just so gorgeous. I think it is one of your best yet! Am a little sad at the moment and this has brought a little peace to my otherwise troubled mind. Thank you so much. Hugs to you too: Eileen.

Excellent landscape with a magnific church... superb light and colors!

Oh what a puzzle that shot would make! Picture Postcard perfect!

This is a very 'old bit' of England - very unusual and very full! What a beautiful position, near to the sea!

Picture Perfect......Superb Capture!!!

This is sooo precious and charming and utterly beautiful!! There seems to be more former residents outside than would fit in the church! It's charming and a delightful shot! But please be careful when you have to climb and take risks to get a shot! :)

Almost like a dream of sorts. The contrast of beauty, sadness and hope make it almost unreal and that is a true art to capture. I think it was well worth your time and I'm so glad David was there with you. :-)
