Valle Crucis Abbey is a thirteenth-century abbey, founded in 1201 by Prince Madog ap Gruffydd and the ‘white monks’ of the Cistercian order. It now lays in ruins in a valley, in northern Wales. This photo has been enhanced such that the sky has an orange glow and a touch of mist lies on a slope of a hill, in the background. This photo was originally shot in 1991 with a Minolta X-700 with a Minolta 50mm f/1.8 lens and Fuji 100 ASA slide film.

The ruins of a thirteenth-century stone church. Manicured grass grows where the floor would have been and remnants of the supporting pillars are reduced to stumps. Some arched windows remain. Some bare trees and a small hill appear behind the church, and the sky has been enhanced, through AI, to represent an orange, misty glow.
