Durham Cherry Tree Panoramic Fridge Magnet. Plastic panoramic fridge magnet, with a March,springtime photograph of Durham Castle and Cathedral, taken from Wharton Park. The late evening light, provide a warm pink colour to Durham Castle and Cathedral. This is complimented in the large pink and white cherry tree blossom, from the Cherry Tree below Durham Castle. While I have photographed the Cathedral from this location, many times over the years, this was the first time I had seen the cherry tree here.
This is my favourite location in Durham, to photograph the Cathedral. Seeing the warm pink light from the setting sun, I knew this would provide a great photograph of the Castle and Cathedral. Seeing the cherry tree at Wharton Park in full blossom, brightens up what could have turned out to be a dark and dull part of the photograph. It is always amazing going back to a popular location, at a different time of year, that the view and conditions can be completely different. A short telephoto lens has been used for this photograph, so as to include Durham Castle as well as the Cathedral. The pink sunlight, from the setting sun is lighting up the tops and towers of the Cathedral. The Cathedral can go from a grey colour, to a bright yellow. It just depends upon the sunlight and the time of day. The sky in this picture is quite plain, with just a hint of colour and tone, this contrasts well with the Cathedral and the cherry tree below. A busy sky would have been a distraction to all of the other elements that comprise this beautiful photograph.
