One cannot help but to be held in awe by the splendid octagon - the pivotal centre piece of Ely Cathedral.

Thanks for the visit - have a peaceful Christmas / Holiday weekend - stay healthy and safe.

Awe inspiring it is!   It always brings home to me just how small and insignificant we humans are when viewed from this perspective.  

The same wishes back to you.  :)

Thank you Carol and Cindy,

I agree - the structure of these cathedrals is amazing - especially granted their age - amazing feats of engineering.

Have a lovely relaxing day
