St Michael's Church

St Michael's Church
It was the timeless quality of the village of East Coker that persuaded the poet TS Eliot to immortalise it in his Nobel award-winning Four Quartets. A plaque dedicated to Eliot reads "In my beginning is my end" inside the church, with his ashes.

This is a stunner Rosa. Excellent back-light with just right amount of shadow to balance very nicely. The light through the flag is a nice finishing touch.
