Whitby Abbey

This shot was taken at Whitby Abbey in England last July. The day wasn't particular sunny and while there was a slight wind I believe the sky made a nice natural backdrop for this shoot. The shot is deliberately taken from a distance to try and capture. the loneliness and isolation of the abbey up on top of the cliff, which I believe it does.

Also the contrast of grass length and tones seems to reflect the idea of the ruined abbey as it is now, over grown and abandoned verses and short and well kept representing the way all of the land may have been in years past .


Of course with all forms of art work it's down to what you feel from the photograph and I hope you enjoy it.
