Views of Bath

It’s always enjoyable to walk along the London Road at this time of year – ok, there’s a lot of traffic, but the sunset tends to make it worthwhile.

Everyone was stopping to take a photo of the Abbey, as the moon lined up perfectly to look like part of the structure.

And just to prove it doesn’t need to be daylight to get a photo of Bath, this is overlooking the city centre from Camden.

Cold, but stunning light

You can definitely feel the breeze is coming from the east today, but I will admit that the light made it worthwhile getting out for a walk.

There’s nothing particularly fancy about this wall, but I like the way the trees cast their shadows on it.

St Stephen’s Church has been photographed loads of times, but I’ve never seen it from this angle before (from Somerset Lane). 

Moving on to Lansdown Crescent, and you can almost feel the glow  on the Bath stone… if only it really felt as warm as it looked!

Stopping to look over the wall at the Hope House development, there was a truly stunning sunset – the sun looked red, although my camera insisted it really was yellow.

Moonlight and sunset

After the cloudy and wet weather of the last couple of days, it made a pleasant change to see clear skies and the moon while I was walking along Westgate Street today.

The sunlight was at the perfect height to allow the Guildhall to glow….

….but the best light was in St. John’s Road, where the sunset looked suitably picturesque even if it was challenging to time the photos so the car headlights weren’t in the way!

 

After the true orangey red glow of the sunset, there was still a stripey glow to the sky across the city. Sometimes the best sunsets can be found slightly higher than the city centre.

Sunset and another Christmas display

It’s almost impossible to walk along the London Road and not catch some amazing sunset shades in the sky at the moment.

Walking along Green Street, I spotted a Christmas display I must have walked past lots of times before and never noticed.

This was the display above the The Old Green Tree in Green Street, which just goes to show that if you don’t look up above the windows, there’s a lot of things you’re likely to miss!
