The Langton Chapel: the ceiling by quietpurplehaze

The Langton Chapel: the ceiling

Thomas Langton was Bishop of Winchester 1493 - 1501 and during this time the Channel Islands became part of the Diocese.

He was elected Archbishop of Canterbury shortly before his death.

I like the ceiling in this chapel dedicated to him.
A majestic capture of the pattern and colour. Fav

Sandy, thank you for your comment . Most of the work was done by my new lens - no craning required - glad to say as I have a slightly painful shoulder!
