This is the ornate Screen that separates the Choir and High Altar from the congregation in the Nave. Many Cathedrals in England started out as Monasteries and it was common practice to seperate the Monks from the general congregation. It is worth remembering that seating in the Nave is a relatively recent addition to churches and cathedrals, In early medieval times and before that the congregation stood for the whole service. This is Bristol Cathedral, Avon & Somerset.

This is the hill top Iron Age Fort known as Oliver's Castle as shot from Roundway Down, Nr. Devizes, Wiltshire, England. The fort would have consisted of a wooden pallisade with fighting platforms around the inside. Evidence of a moat can still be seen. Sharpened wooden spikes would have been driven into the ground outside to slow the progress of invaders.
This was shot on Abermawr beach, Pembrokeshire, West Wales, UK, last week. I use two Camera Systems these days. One is based on the Sony ILCE-7R and the other on a Canon EOS 5D Mark I (Yep, I went back to one of my favourite FF cameras). Bought it in immaculate condition for £249.00 (~$374US) with a 6 month Guarantee. To be honest, for posting to the Web, a 12.8 Megapixel FF Sensor is not limiting. The image is all about subject matter, light, technique AND your ability to PP.
