Thank you for your nice comments and the interesting link.
This was taken inside a monastery in Greece. The monk looking out of the window is standing in front of a sheer drop of several hundred feet down to the river below. Taking photos was strictly forbidden and women had to be completely covered. Fortunately I managed to sneak my camera in under the layers of clothing....Penelope

This is a very interesting image. The detail in the doors is amazing, and the broken windows really make me wonder what is the story here. Nice shadows on the floor too. Very cool. -Earl Waud

Wonderful shot,Penny! The long, illuminated hallway leads the eye to the window and silhouetted figure. Also, the highlighted doors add an another element of interest. Very nice! Shu
