This reminds me of what I imagined Narnia to be like in my head. Love it! The colors, the tone, it's not as depressing as most 'ruins' photography usually is.

It's at an abbey/monastery which was founded in 1132, and operated for 400 years till King Henry the VIII dissolved the monasteries in 1539, which destroyed nearly every Abbey in England

It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and is one of the largest of its type in Europe!

Such a shame, but is more than a magical place to visit! So i can more than see how you get to Narnia! I'd love to see it with snow on!

I really wanna go there! D:
I love old buildings and the feeling you get in them. It's true that they're magical. ^^

Lovee the angle and colors of this, but I would personally add more shadows or make it a little darker somehow to add more depth because I feel that the image is almost flat, but otherwise, gorgeous shot!

Post processing, or changing the exposure I suppose.

And thanks =]

not really sure how to add shaddow through post processing...

The image is HDR so has about the best exposure possible, so not sure how to improve that over what I got!
