This picture is taken from the County Hall roof looking down East St Helen Street, in Abingdon, on a summer evening, with St Helen’s Church at the far end.
Part of Look Down – a theme on City Daily Photos.
Not only the church rises to meet the sky: the poplars, like storm clouds, rise above the cumulus of trees, and chimneys stand like sentinels. Men from this street went to war and did not come back (Somme 100).
Excellent shot! I like the perspective.
You’ll all be pleased to know that the men who lived at mine did both come back 🙂
Excellent photo and a great perspective!
What a view!
