A Photostory Friday - West Walls

walking back to the car from the church
where my daughter
had been performing in the senior choir
the sun was shining
in blue skies and I was
remembering how Merisi seems to
find such great shots upon her walks
I thought I would try and look with her eye
for interesting buildings, views and reflections
these are the results of my 15 minute walk along West Walls
the oldest street in the city which nestles along the city wall
view through leaded church window
shadow of a naked tree on old leaded window in sandstone building
an old street lantern on West Walls
Lovely photos!
ReplyDeleteYou found some great shots! I especially like the one through the church window.
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely place you have here, and what great pictures too. I bet you soaked in the pride in that church where your daughter sang!
ReplyDeleteI love the shadow pictures! The lamp is awesome.
ReplyDeleteThose are very interesting images, Saz - You may need some of that museum space shortly, to have your own art exhibition, at this rate! xxx
ReplyDeleteWow! It must be wonderful to live in such a city with sites so beautiful! I can feel the warmth from the walls of the buildings. It's as if I can feel myself standing there by the wall with the sun in my face, smelling the moss from the bricks. You did an awesome job with the symetry of the trees, the walls, the windows and the shadows.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you should be a photographer.
Hmmm....
LOVE the West Walls!!
ReplyDeleteThose are wonderful shots. I love them!

Wow, what a fabulous walk to have taken! I really like the 3rd from the bottom of the West Walls. So pretty and tranquil!
ReplyDeleteNice. Sometimes we have to force our eyes to see. Isn't that funny? You did great!

Good to see you back Sazzie.Wonder if I will ever manage to take a walk on the West Walls.
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures. (why are everyones pictures better than mine! Pardon my ignorance but is West Walls part of Newcastle? (Or Carlisle) I have never stopped in either yet do pieces for a motor mag!
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely.
ReplyDeleteI'm always struck by how much I like looking at other people's parts of the world, especially their close neighborhoods. No doubt, some of this is just "normal" to your eye. But it is gripping to mine. I'll have to do a similar walkabout in my own neighborhood, and share the results. Thanks for the inspiration!
LOVE the angle of the West Wall shot .. very involving but then all of them are .. well done !
ReplyDeletelovely walk

What beautiful pics!
ReplyDeleteAt least part of Carlisle looks like that. Perhaps you should post the graffiti parts too....just for contrast.
Just back from David's .. wonderful interview ..
ReplyDeleteBetween us, I love that photo and how you've got your hand under your chin. Just want to say I pose THE VERY SAME WAY! And you look FAB!
There are some lovely areas of Carlisle - but I have seen the grafitti also!
ReplyDeleteI thought the buildings looked a bit familiar! (Born and bred cumbrian.)
Great shots and fantastic Sunday Roast at David's!
I found you through your interview. And I'm so glad I did. You're not fat, and I', mot TOO 'rinkly' either!
