Photographing Northumberland: Dunstanburgh Castle (Joseph Turner’s View)

I’m a huge admirer of British landscape painter Joseph Mallord William Turner. (If you’ve not been to the Clore Gallery in Tate Britain then go. Right now.)

Although he never returned, Turner used those sketches to create a variety of paintings featuring the castle in the following decades.
