Kenilworth Castle (2): mostly windows and doorways

This was outing with my U3A photography group. After living here for 50 years, and having visited Kenilworth Castle more times than I care to count, it was always going to be an interesting challenge to find new ways of looking at the place. However, the weather forecast was for a clear sky and bright sun, so I was hoping for interesting sharp shadows, perpectives on rugged stones picked out at interesting angles . . .  As the day dawned, we discovered that the forecasters had changed their minds overnight! The day was murky and misty, with a dull grey sky, posing additional challenges. So I made a decision to work entirely in monochrome.

The first two images are of the same window, viewed in opposite directions.






And then, just as we were leaving, a serendipitous vista with figures positioned in the right place
