Ely cathedral - octagon, lantern, and nave ceiling

Better on large view for the detail if you have a moment. Thank you..
The current cathedral building dates from the 12th century, the octagon and lantern were added during the 14th and the nave ceiling was a Victorian installation as part of a restoration project.
Lester and I went to Ely the day before we visited our daughter. Ely cathedral's architecture is wonderful.
I have taken some photos since our weekend away, honest! :-)
Great shot, nice and sharp.
