Gold Hill ~ Shaftesbury
How could I leave Shaftesbury without a few pictures of Gold Hill, especially as I sat at the top enjoying take-away coffee and cheese straws with my daughter!

Excellent Rosa.! I love the timeless look of the cottages. The main image is superb.........the amount of detail you've captured in the stonework, cobblestones and roof tiles is outstanding. I especially like the colour palette. The light is nice too..........and you have some good definition in the clouds!

A charming series of cottages and of images so well taken and finely composed dear Rosa!
This place is worth a visit, definitely! I love the the thatched roofs in the third picture, but everything looks so beautiful and perfect for a rest...next time you will be drinking your coffee with your daughter inside a cosy café, no more take-away!;-)
Take care dear friend and enjoy your Sunday afternoon.

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Adele club
There are certainly a variety of cottages along the hill Adele. I have only ever been inside one and they have great views from their back gardens. I hope the day will soon come for us all, when we can sit inside a cafe and go to a shop! I need some clothes and I hate buying online!
Take care my friend and have a good week ahead.

Hi Rosa
A very nice picture, which I like very much!
Wonderful and interesting composition
A gentleman in our camera club submitted a black and white photo from the exact same spot in a competition last Thursday. (Although taken more facing down the hill). He came 2nd or 3rd with it.. Now the whole club wants to go there!!!
Looking at your picture here, I can understand that view exactly!!
Best Wishes, a nice week ahead, and stay safe!!

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Peter_Private_Box club
Hi Peter,
There are usually a high number of tourists at the top of the hill Peter. Only a few of them venture down, which is a shame as St James is very interesting with lots of lovely buildings, and a pub.
Best wishes,
Rosa.

Espectacular desnivel en la calle, que tiene el adoquinado pertinente para evitar resbalones y dar trabajo a los zapateros. Las viviendas son encantadoras reliquias de un casco urbano de otra época.
