I caught this shot of Rievaulx Abbey [near Helmesley, North Yorkshire, UK] just as mid-April sunshine made the stonework glow like dessert sand, instead of being its more usual grayish-beige colour. The grass had been mown seconds earlier and clouds were scudding across an azure-blue sky. One of those days when it's good to be in England! Here's a link to brief details about the Abbey's history, in case you'd like to know more about it: http://www.theheritagetrail.co.uk/abbeys/rievaulx_abbey.htm
