Photograph of Durham Cathedral and the riverbanks along the River Wear. Durham Cathedral stands majestically above the trees. Below Durham Cathedral, is the Fulling Mill museum beside the wear, just poking through the trees. Nice bright summertime photograph of this iconic view, taken standing beside the ‘Pink House’ beside the wear. This summers day has a bright blue sky and attractive white fluffy clouds passing behind the towers of the Cathedral. The sunlight is catching the sides of the towers of Durham Cathedral and the tops of the trees along the banks of the River Wear. This stops the green tree leaves looking too dark and heavy in the middle of this photograph.

Photograph of the entrance way to Durham Castle. Durham Castle is jointly designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site with Durham Cathedral. The Castle is now part of Durham University, although you can visit the Castle and its museum. Construction of the Castle, began in 1072. 6 years after the Norman conquest of England and soon after the Normans reached the North of England.

Durham Castle and Elvet Bridge, is an autumn photograph of Elvet Bridge with Durham Castle in the distance. Warm, late afternoon light is illuminating the buildings and the bridge. They are casting a strong reflection into the water of the River Wear below Elvet Bridge.

Durham Cathedral in Autumn, is a close up photograph of Durham Cathedral, taken from Wharton Park. The Autumnal colours of the tree leaves surrounding the Cathedral are lit up by the late afternoon sunlight. This provides a really bright, colourful base to this photograph. Part of Durham Castle is visible on the lefthand side of this photograph. This photograph of Durham Cathedral was taken in early November, late in the afternoon when the sun was starting to set. This warm sunlight has brought out the autumnal colours of the tree leaves enclosing the Cathedral and Castle. From this angel the afternoon sunlight strikes the back of the Cathedral and the main Cathedral towers and Galliee Chapel. The sunlight gives a warmth to the stonework, while the rest of the building has strong deep shadows. This is my favourite viewpoint to photograph Durham Cathedral, this close-up photograph was taken with a telephoto lens, to get in close. Using this type of lens, compresses the photograph so that the hills behind the Cathedral appear closer than they really are. A bright sky with banks of white clouds are passing behind the Cathedral’s Bell Tower. This helps to make the tower really standout.

The coasters will be packed in a strong card mailing box and are posted on a Signed For service. International orders are posted Tracked.
