Two super images Rosa...............both with wonderful architectural detail and colours. The cathedral spire is really impressive. The almshouse is especially lovely!

It's been a few years (about 12) since I visited the cathedral...........did you get inside to take any images. The font is particularly beautiful : www.ipernity.com/doc/keithburton/19264485

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Keith Burton club
Thank you very much Keith. I haven't been inside the Cathedral for a long time. In fact I don't think I have ever seen the beautiful font in your impressive link. I must visit one day with just that intension, instead of meeting with family or friends and spending too long eating and shopping ;-)

Everything has been said above, and I totally agree, about the beauty and elegance of this architecture (both the college and the cathedral); and the success of your shot, its light, the colours it renders so beautifully etc.
Congratulations on this beautiful and interesting presentation, Rosa.

Listening to the news from Ukraine over the last few days, I can only be devastated with you at the horror of the exactions perpetrated... Will this tragedy end soon... ?

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Eric Desjours club
Thank you very much Eric. Your generous comments are much appreciated.

The illegal war shows no signs of ending Eric. I don't understand how anyone can be so cruel, and from what we see on the news, it is truly horrific.

I hope you have a good day my friend.

Another cathedral posting for today Rosa. I have been here too (2011) and even taken pictures inside the nave area. I imagine it would cost a fortune to go in there now. ~ Excellent take here of the college and spire which I also remember seeing but have no photos of that. Very well done.

Cheers. Herb

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Herb Riddle club
I think it's £10 to go inside Herb, but I love walking around the green, where there are some beautiful buildings, as you may remember. I will try go inside on my next visit, as I know it's spectacular, from what I remember when I was 11years old.....no comment ;-))
Thanks for your kind comments. Cheers, Rosa.
