The story behind this image

As part of a couple of days 'glamping' experience in the Brecon Beacons National Park, Wales, my wife Liz and I took a trip into the Vale of Ewyas to visit the famous Llanthony Priory.

The remains of the 13th century priory are particularly photogenic, and we spent a good hour wandering around admiring the structure from different angles.

This photo was acually taken during our second visit to the priory, with lighting conditions completely different from our first visit, which was under bright sunlight.

On this occasion we had a fully overcast sky, casting lovely diffuse lighting over the ancient stone pillars, walls and floors.
