Photography->Castles/Ruins
Took this on a recent visit to Holy Island. The castle is located in what was once the very volatile border area between England and Scotland. Not only did the English and Scots fight, but the area was frequently attacked by Vikings. The castle was built in 1550, around the time that Lindisfarne Priory went out of use, and stones from the priory were used as building material. It is very small by the usual standards, and was more of a fort. The castle sits on the highest point of the island, a whin stone hill called Beblowe.

Much of the beauty in life is found in people who care.
The composition of the image is sublime! A fantastically imaginative shot. Just seen it in the VB and had to give it 10. INto my favs without hesitation too. I aspire to take photographs as good as this one!!!!!!

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the almighty. I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God in whom i trust". Psalm 91: 1 and 2
superb DOF.
