A Storm Brewing

            Another shot of majestic Normanton Church in Rutland, this time under a rather dramatic looking sky. I like the moodiness, which black and white helps to emphasise. 

Believe it or not, the sky had been a beautiful blue just minutes before. I managed to take a couple more shots before the weather changed and I went on my way. 

Normanton Church is an interesting Grade II listed building, not least because of its position overlooking picturesque Rutland Water. 

But because of its exposed position, on a cold windy day, it can feel very chilly when you're standing there taking photos!
