:: Slatted Light :: by Tim Ashley, Fourth Place

North Stoke Church, Sussex

This is the porch floor of what might just be the most beautiful church I know. Inside, the walls are all buttery and distempered, with the damp pushing glistening crystals through the walls. It has no electric light so the four services they hold there each year are by candlelight. Aside from that it is isolated and always empty.

Thanks Silas!
I was in Florence Feb last year on a language course - have been thinking of going back for another one this year, though it's ******* cold there at this time of year. I took very few pix while there since I spent most of my time in bars with people your age... Tim

Lovely photo tim. The little church reminds me of St Oswald's chapel, a tiny place isolated in fields in the Cotswolds.
Flick.

BEAUTIFUL photo, Tim. "Buttery and distempered" walls, huh? What a poetic turn of phrase. This image is very pleasing, and very on-theme with the angled sunlight and high perspective. -- DF
