Lincoln Cathedral – Arches and Architecture

Lincoln Cathedral was home to me for a few hours last month while I spent time happy snapping with the Fuji Finepix I have. Finally, I got around editing the photos.

Click the images to enlarge each one.

I particularly like this one of the arches and vaulting at the end of the south aisle.
