Description
I was very recently in Lincoln playing chess, and had an afternoon off to go to nearby Lincoln as I arrived at the Cathedral I heard the cry from the towers of perigrine falcons, and they put on a wonderful display for me.. It seemed a strange coincidence
It is curious to note that time after time interesting coincidences and synchronicities popped up during this visit, especially when I began to conclude that in some way it was almost as if we were involved in a game of chess

The commentary I found very intersting but the image is stunning! This is view camera perfect, considering that is not what you used. Thank you for sharing. egmont
I love chess in all forms and this is a stunning photograph and a wonderful tribute to the environment you visited.

Very good in both ligt and color erland
Awesome shot!!
Love the scale of this. Beautifully done indoor shot, Dan. Excellent writing, too. So, who was the humble pawn? -M :^)
Beautiful capture...
We are challenged by what confronts us. Once upon a time there was even a man called Sadaam which we were told meant "confronter." We can treat the people as standards which have been resolved by common sense or we can try to ignore what is presented as irrefutable- that this look and this posture or walk is in our immediate presence at this time. Some hope to take on grandeur by simply being present where greatness has acted or in a great vista of landscape. Others wish to hide in a detail by counting cracks in sidewalks or finding and picking up objects discarded. A new security chief once challenged me with the exclamation "they were buried in the floors of the cathedrals!!" Then someone I met in a phone bank asked me to drive her to the "Four Seasons Hotel" which is a bit common a form of the same thing. I wonder if it took a year to play a game of circular chess?
Excellent capture and a beautiful mellow light.
all of the above in triplicate. Jenny 5++++
Wow, they just dont make 'em like this anymore. Gorgeous shot..
Magnifique architecture et excellente lumie.Les vitraux sur la gauche ne sont pas surexpos, ce qui est souvent le cas avec le numique.Et, malgrla largeur du champ, les piliers restent bien paralles,sans doute le redressement des fuyantes avec PHOTOSHOP ? Excellente photo!
How very interesting. I just saw that movie for the first time the other day. And after reading Redfield's books, seeings the occurances of synchronicity are fascinating. This is a lovely shot of the church.
Beautifully balanced lighting in this outstanding architectural interior. Wow!
A wonderful capture Danny! I was in Lincoln on holiday, 2 years ago and took some shots in the Cathedral. It's a very reverent place. I don't know how to explain it. Did you find the imp? The play of light amongst the great pillars gives a certain je ne sais quois; such inner peace but power & majesty for something so old & big! Loz.x
Glorious!
