Lacock Abbey
Three exposures with camera mounted on tripod at +2EV, 0EV and -2EV, tonemapped using Photomatix Pro and edited using DxO Optics Pro 10.
The basement consists of an arcade of cloisters on three sides, surrounding several vaulted rooms including the sacristy, chapter house, and warming house. These rooms were situated under the original dormitory. At the other end of the building, below what was formerly the abbess' chambers and the great hall, are two rooms and the main passage. On the north side, underneath the original refectory, is the undercroft.
Lacock Abbey passed into the hands of the Talbot family, and during the 19th century was the residence of William Henry Fox Talbot. In 1835 he made what may be the earliest surviving photographic camera negative, an image of one of the windows.

As anyone who is interested in photography will know, the first "modern" photograph was taken by William Henry Fox-Talbot in August 1835. The photo that he took was of this window at Lacock Abbey.
