We had some beautiful light just after sunrise yesterday as Moira and I enjoyed a circular walk from Barnard Castle to Egglestone Abbey and back along the Tees.

Visited the ruins of #EgglestoneAbbey near #BarnardCastle earlier and had a stroll by the river Tees. Golden autumn weather again. Photos can’t begin to do the area justice. The foliage colours so beautiful this year. #CountyDurham
Evening sun behind the ruins of Egglestone Abbey on a green hill above the tree-lined river. An oak tree with golden foliage frames a fence with green fields and trees beyond. The ruined abbey is just visible in top right corner. The river Tees in the late afternoon sun. Ruins of Egglestone Abbey in silhouette with long shadows on the grass.

Photograph taken at Egglestone Abbey near Barnard Castle in North Yorkshire. Built in the C13th as a monastery, it lies in beautiful ruins today and is run by English Heritage. Sunlight floods through the crumbling arched windows throwing shadows onto the stone wall opposite as if windows exist there. Blue sky overhead and green grass around slab topped graves on the floor. Well worth a visit!

Photograph taken at Egglestone Abbey near Barnard Castle in North Yorkshire. Built in the C13th as a monastery, it lies in beautiful ruins today and is run by English Heritage. A monochrome filter was used to focus on the tracery detail. View of the sky through a pair of crumbling arched windows with remnants of decorative tracery. Blue sky was overhead so look at the comments for the colour version. The walls have clear rectangular indentations where wooden beams would have been anchored back in the day. Well worth a visit!

Photograph taken at Egglestone Abbey near Barnard Castle in North Yorkshire. Built in the C13th as a monastery, it lies in beautiful ruins today and is run by English Heritage. A rectangular stone window divided into three narrow, vertical apertures built into the stone wall. Looking out at the view of autumnal trees and lush green grass outside with blue sky and clouds overhead.

Photograph taken using a macro setting, looking up at a Pleated Inkcap mushroom (apparently) in the grounds of Egglestone Abbey, County Durham. Nestled the phone camera down in the grass. A small mushroom in amongst an expanse of grass. Sunlight catches and makes its pleated form look so delicate. Part of the abbey wall is in the background to the left. Egglestone Abbey is a beautiful place to visit if you're in the area. Run by English Heritage.

Photograph looking up a part-ruined, stone tower at Eggleston Abbey, County Durham. A few steps of the spiral staircase still in tact. Blue sky with clouds overhead. Used a dramatic warm' filter to help the sky stand out. History is my comfort zone, unless there's a ghost! Egglestone Abbey is a beautiful place to visit if you're in the area. Run by English Heritage.
