This is just lovely Rosa...................the Abbey looks magnificent in the sunshine with that gorgeous honey-coloured stonework. Your perspective and composition are spot on, I especially like the chap on the bench which anchors the shot nicely!

A lovely candid of the priest in the PiP too.

Not very often I am in Sherborne on a Sunday morning, but was quite pleased to get a picture of the priest. I nearly titled it 'on yer bike' but thought better of it ;-))
Thank you so much for your kind comments Keith. Have a good week.

What a lovely church. The architecture is marvelous and I also love your composition. I could see myself sitting at that bench and just staring! I enjoyed the inset as well, thanks for including it!

Lovely Church Rosa, I really like the windows, it must be quite light inside!.... Is that the vicar's bike?... just kidding... All the best, John.

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to John Goodwin
Thank you John. I haven't been inside for a while, but yes, it is spectacular. I was last in there for a concert by a Welsh light opera singer and it was pretty good. It may be the vicar's bile ;-))
Best wishes, Rosa.

I had a look round here once and recall that it was impressive. Of course I wasn't taking photos in those days, much to my regret now! But happy to lose myself in your superb captures instead, Rosa!

Hi Rosa,

Very nice photo, and wonderful sunlight.
I guess, by the time on the clock, and the vicar shaking hands with those leaving, the services must be well and truly over. Maybe not so many people go to church these days, as evidenced by a very small crowd outside the door...
I like the picture very much though!!

Best Wishes for the coming week.

Peter

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Peter_Private_Box club
Hi Peter,

Yes the service was over. There was a steady stream coming out. The group outside, I think were from one of the three Sherborne boarding schools. Maybe waiting to go in for choir practice...but I'm not sure.
I am pleased you like the picture, thank you.

Best wishes, Rosa.
