Rays From Heaven
Near Henley I found the mysterious ruins of what was once the church of the settlement of Bix Brand, noted in the Domesday Survey (1086) as having 10 families.
Despite being much clad in ivy and weed overgrowth, much of the stonework is clearly visible and the whole is now a scheduled ancient monument. St James ceased as a church in 1874 when the outside walls started to bow making it unsafe.

crepuscular rays ... there's a scientific term to chew on:A feature of nature that only photography can well capture. Good job, Mark. I also like the composition with the cloud on the left, the tree on the right, and the grass at the bottom!
