Portent

Throckmorton, Worcs. view map

How apt - a biblical looking sky above the beautiful undedicated 13th century chapelry...reminds me of something from a sci-fi or horror film (The Omen springs to mind....)

Friday 10th's entry to the July Challenge; click here for other Pbasers (maybe some of whom are under demonic heavy weather) with an architectural bent this month

Looks very castle like. The tombsones certainly add to the whole mood. Now if I can just stop that Omen music from playing in my head.

Well, to me it feels like back to the Middle Ages, Where are the Knights?
Great shot. Beautiful dramatic sky.

With this subject matter, lighting and clouds this does present a powerful atmosphere. Very nice details on the chapel. "V"
