Conjectural reconstruction of the peaceful sixth-century monastery at Kingarth, Isle of Bute - at least peaceful until the Vikings arrived. It is said to have been founded by the Irish monk Cathan (Catan or Cattan), but the site is more commonly associated with his nephew, St Blane (Irish Bláán).

'Kew Church.' (c1980) In this painting of St Anne's Church, William Bowyer shows why he was considered a master of painting the vagaries of light. St Anne's is situated on Kew Green, adjacent to the Royal Botanic Gardens in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames.

Dunstanburgh Castle is as close to taking a pilgrimage as there is for landscape photographers.
Here is one I took a few years ago.
I don't think I've ever shared it on any social media.
