Black Dog

Many places have a story of a ghoulish, ghostly black dog that haunts the buildings. On the Isle of Man it is the Moddey Dhoo, and his place of residence is Peel Castle. Like a madman I climbed the adjacent hill to take this picture, which shows the ruins of the cathedral inside the grounds. Pretty much bent double into the wind which I would describe as battering ram strength. The state of the seas in the background give some indication, but I think that the stillness of the building clashes nicely with the ferocity of the waves!
