Haroldstown submitted by KenWilliams on 27th Aug 2005. Taken 26th August 2005, just after nightfall. Using flash on the outside and torchlight on the inside, I took quite anumber of shots with this combination and also with single light sources. Not entirely sure which ones worked and which are OTT but I liked this one in particular because my dog managed to sneak into the frame when I was otherwise busy!
