During one of our trips through the Ardennes, we stumbled upon a beautiful abandoned monastery. Meandering up narrow steep roads and a climb over fence we arrived at overgrown driveway towards the large open doors of the haunted building.
Once inside, we started photographing in wonder. This vista was taken from one of the dilapidated bathrooms looking out into the courtyard.
The courtyard in completely overgrown with vine with its beautiful colors during autumn.
For this beautiful picture I chose black and white, because the structures come out stronger.
