York Minster, one of the largest Gothic cathedrals in Europe, in Yorkshire, England. I think this is my favourite cathedral. And yes, the moon was actually that big that night. Werewolves were exploding everywhere. (posted by someone named BANNED on skyscrapercity.com)
Loughrigg Tarn is a small natural lake in the Lake District, Cumbria, England. The name is a bit of a tautology, since Loughrigg means “ridge of the lough (lake)” and Tarn is another name for a body of water.
Loughrigg Tarn was a favourite place of the poet William Wordsworth, who called it a “Looking glass….round, clear, and bright as heaven”, a reference to Lake Nemi, the mirror of the Roman goddess Diana. In Roman mythology Diana was the goddess of the hunt and the moon and birthing and virgins although how those last two go together I am not quite certain. (David Noton for the National Trust)

This was exactly what came into my head when I saw this image. There is something very wrong with my brain but then you knew that. Ah, well. Marauders Forever.
