Shaftsbury
by Bobbinalorry
I stopped here on the way back from Cornwall last Sunday. I wanted a shot of this hill, but it was packed with tourists; I waited a while & suddenly, just for a brief moment, everyone seemed to disapear around that corner, all except for this old Gent, so I had a split second for a grabshot before they all reapeared.
When he got to the top he stopped to catch his breath, smiled, & said to me " E'ry toym oi walks oop this 'ere 'il, it gets a bit steep'rrr"

Ah, a place I know well .... and I often walked up that there hill as I pounded the beat !! I never tired of the views from Gold Hill.
That's a lovely shot, Larry, really capturing the timelessness and beauty of this wonderful street.
