michele.c...greetings ;>).... I am grateful for your friendly visit and good comment...These old ruins, from the 16th century, are quite famous in the UK..The monastery was forced to close when the infamous King Henry VIII outlawed the catholic faith and deported the monks/nuns >>>The building soon fell into disrepair when nearby land-owners removed the lead roofs..

I use no filters in this shot, only a small adjustment/enhancement in photoshop...

Thank you for stopping by ;>)
