Light and shadow in Iona Abbey Photo

Photographer’s Note

Off the western coast of Scotland, just a mile or so from the southwestern tip of the Isle of Mull sits the small isle of Iona. It is where St. Columba landed in A.D. 563 after sailing from Ireland. Here he established a monastery. It is also believed this is where the Book of Kells was written.

In this photo you see the prayers of Abbey visitors tacked to a cross.

Hi Todd!
Thank you for the comment on my "blue water photo".... maybe you're right...
I was watching the photos in your gallery... and I have to admit... they;re fascinating!
You do a great job! And such is this photo.
Best regards,
Olaf

Hi Todd,
nice play of light from the window on the pieces of paper of the prayers. I like also the reflex of the light on the small cross near the window. Nice, nice, nice.
Have a nice WE.
