That has to be one of the bluest skys I've ever seen. Whitest clouds and greenest grass and trees too. And that castle sure is castle-colored, isn't it?
This is a lovely shot, Pat. Have you read the historical novel, Sarum, about the area by Edward Rutherford? The writing's hit or miss but he tells a great story from prehistory - Stonehenge etc. - to the present day; and the period in which the cathedral featured heavily. I"ve never been but it is definitely one of the 10 British places to see before I die list.
Sam: my mother always loved that novel and I took her to stay in Salisbury. On our last morning I drove her to the Sarum area but had car problems which inhibited my appreciation. I think she enjoyed it.
Grand mother but still a girl at heart. Married to MTL(my true love)after a separation of 30 years. Had three careers: trained paediatric nurse, National photographic model and business woman. Now settled in SW and enjoying our five children and ten grandchildren and making the most of what time we have left.
In January 2013 I lost MTL.

Hi Maggie! It is a beautiful photo. when I wa neas enough to photograph it with my mothr it had scaffolding sadly.
Hi pat - I emailed you a reply related to your camera questions.
Many thanks Rashbre!
I was going to say something witty about "my baby walking by" it, but then I remembered that happened at Winchester Cathedral.
Nice cats, though.
Cheers.
Are you a cat person Randall?
Actually, I'm a "dog person." I start sneezing if someone merely whispers the word, "cat."
Cheers.
This could seriously be a postcard, Pat. The sky is a perfect backdrop to the tower. I wish I could be right there on the grass.
Randall: and they can give you ringworm!
Carmi: it wasn't my shot and I did give a credit to the photographer Steve Day. He is excellent I agree.

Mike I agree with all of that but it's a cathedral not a castle:)
I'm breathless!
Kath: I think it's my favourite cathedral. You know Constable did a beautiful painting of it.
