This is the courtyard one proceeds through in order to access the Basilica at the monastery.

Although the universe is ablaze with more colours than the human eye can detect, we can also learn to see the world in new ways by returning to the roots of the art of photography, to the art of black and white, and other monochromes like sepia (and bi-level). This photo blog celebrates that spectrum of colours ranging from the darkest monochromes to the most brilliant whites, and everything in between.

Love the details in the buildings statues, though there's a lot of burn out at the top. Was the angle/tilt intended? I think a little straightening would do.
Hope you don't mind my commenting like this.
Actually, the middle ages insisted upon excellent drainage . . . hence the seeming tilt.
Well that's an interesting bit of info.
I'm very gullible, you know ;).
Hi Barbara,
Thanks for your comments. To explain why the shot looks as it does: I had to use a very wide angle lens because the courtyard and basilica were too close for a regulard lens. Plus, I had to tilt it up quite radicallyn in order to get the top of the basilica in. The top is washed out partially because of the contrast between exposure zones but also because of the post processing I chose. The walls are tilted because of the extreme wide angle.
Again, thanks!
Tony
