. This mesmerizing print captures the ethereal beauty of Carlisle Cathedral, nestled in the heart of Cumbria. Bathed in a soft glow emanating from strategically placed floodlights, the majestic east window takes center stage, showcasing its intricate medieval design and breathtaking stained glass panels. The skilled lens of photographer Laing expertly freezes this moment in time, allowing us to appreciate the meticulous craftsmanship that went into restoring this architectural masterpiece.
