Photos

Next day after the walk in Dartmoor we found ourselselves for a while in Exeter. We had not much time so we decided to rely on the advice from the guidebook. To tell you the truth results were rather disapointing. The area called the old town was an odd mixture of old and new building not even trying to match each other. Although the old town was seriously damaged be German airforce during the WW2, I believe architects could have done better when providing replacements.
The only one exception to the rule was the cathedral, the 4th one we visited on our tour and the first one we visited inside (excluding of course Glastonbury cathedral , which has no inside).

Exeter St. Peter's cathedral was erected in 13th and 14th century. On my picture I tried to capture as much as possible of the longest single-part gothic vault in the world, and I decided not to correct the perspective distortion, just leaving pillars on the right parallel to the edge of the photo. For me it helps in creating the feeling of the largeness of this building. Tell me if you think it works.
In the far end you can see huge 17th century organ and I only can imagine how they sound in such an interior.
Having no tripod I used a bench as a support. The waether outside was cloudy, so no sunlight-born colors were added to the original colors of the stone walls
