Wuthering Heights

This image was taken at Top Withens a few miles west of the small village of Haworth, near Bradford. The small ruin was supposedly the inspiration for the manor featured in Emily Bronte's book "Wuthering Heights" There is however a plaque stating that the fairly unremarkable ruin bore no resemblance to the house in the book.
This image was taken with a Canon 5D with a 24-70mm lens on a tripod at 34mm at f11 for 1/40 of a second.

It's a beauty! I does quite resemble to Bronte's Wuthering Heights scenery. I love this photo, it looks haunting and that there are many stories to be told. Good job here! :)
