We had a dry spell in among the showers, lasted a few minutes at least! This is my old college, Magdalen in Oxford, taken from just outside the botanic gardens so neatly hiding the main road. We had a wander around the town yesterday, spent too much in the bookshops and generally enjoyed ourselves.
Thanks – I took the photo from just outside the Botanic Garden across the main road from the tower, which is Magdalen College in Oxford – you are slightly lower down there and so it looks even more imposing than it does from the road.

Is that a church or a cathedral. It also looks like you had a brief spell of sunshine to take that image! #mysundayphoto

Beautiful capture, I love the tree partly covering the church too. It is huge! Happy Easter.
