Heaven Sent Light
St. Martin's Cathedral, Utrecht, or Dom Church (Dutch: Domkerk), is a Gothic church dedicated to Saint Martin of Tours, which was the Cathedral of the Diocese of Utrecht during the Middle Ages. It is the country's only pre-Reformation cathedral, but has been a Protestant church since 1580.
It was once the Netherlands' largest church, but the nave collapsed in a storm in 1674 and has never been rebuilt, leaving the Dom tower isolated from the Cathedral. As you can see in the extra photo (note the palmtree in the foreground, unique in a cold country as Holland ;-))
I shot this fountain on the center court of the Dom Church as I loved the sun illuminating the water flow.
