And then it went dark

I have to confess that I took this shot from the car. I'd been wandering along the lanes looking for a high spot to give me a good view over the Moor as I could see some sunbeams which looked interesting. As I rounded a bend everything "came together" as they say... a gateway, a good view, sunbeams and then the dark cloud. I wasn't going to risk getting out of the car so down came the window and voilà
All I have done is crop half a cm off the left hand side.

Super contrasty shot and so good that it was accessible from the car.

It's... awesome. In the literal sense. The shafts of light almost make it look like a chiaroscuro painting.
