Lower Heyford Church
This wonderful little 12th Century church is constructed in a mixture of Cotswold and Hornton stone. It just loves to be photographed and as you can see looks wholly different at different times of the day and in different lights. Here are just some of my many images and of course every one is very idividual. One of the pleasures of photographing this building is the many opportunities for changing the geometry of the gravestones by just moving a couple of feet or changing the focal length of the lens a fraction.

St Mary's Lower Heyford - early morning winter light

I am so pleased with this picture! Only on this single occasion in the six years I have been photographing this church has the early morning light been so gorgeous and intense. I celebrated by using the triple stone forground - one of my favourite configurations. Please be assured I never move the stones - only my feet!
