Christ Church College

Christ Church College
This is Christ Church College in Oxford.

From Wikipedia ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christ_Church,_Oxford )
"Founded in 1546 by King Henry VIII, it is one of the larger colleges of the University of Oxford. Christ Church has a number of architecturally significant buildings including Tom Tower (designed by Sir Christopher Wren), Tom Quad (the largest quadrangle in Oxford) and the Great Dining Hall which was also the seat of the parliament assembled by King Charles I during the English Civil War. The buildings have inspired replicas throughout the world in addition to being featured in films such as Harry Potter and The Golden Compass. This has helped Christ Church become the most popular Oxford college for tourists with almost half a million visitors annually".

Now, for 'Sight and Sound' I have a wayward link that will take a little bit of explaining :-)

"White Rabbit" was written by Grace Slick in either late 1965 or early 1966. It has been used several times in our Group. I know I have used this classic at least once and it is now time for me to use the song again :-)

According to Wikipedia, the song uses imagery found in the fantasy works of Lewis Carroll. 1865's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its 1871 sequel Through the Looking-Glass. Imagery such as changing size after taking pills or drinking an unknown liquid.

Lewis Carroll attended Christ Church College and this completes my 'Sight and Sound' logic :-)

Well, that makes perfect sense to me, Roger, and I'm always up for hearing this song again. It's one of the few that I never get tired of. I love this live performance (and her bare feet. :)

Wow, you had a beautiful October day. Christ's Church is looking so amazing and you've photographed it beautifully.

Thank you for your contribution to Sight and Sound!
