Autumn is a wonderful time to reflect on and enjoy the night sky. The days draw in and October gives us a chance to enjoy beautiful sunsets.

Once the sun has set, the atmosphere changes again.. The stars are out and bats may be glimpsed darting through the trees, especially so in an ancient churchyard…

These glorious photographs of St Peter’s church and the night skies were taken by James Cullen.

The images are dramatic and striking in colour and viewpoint.

The building looks amazing, but the stars beyond hold even more wonder…
