Bibury October 2004

Photographs taken on a trip at the end of October 2004. At the time I had a Canon Pro 1 camera which remains the most expensive camera I have ever purchased, and also the one I have liked the least. I was not sad when it died in the hot Romanian sun a few years later.

The arch has typical "Norman" (Romanesque) chevrons but is ever to slightly pointed so probably dates to the end of the period.
