Almost picture postcards

Took a trip over the gorgeous Peak District today for a walk around Buxton. In the sunshine, I thought these 2 shots could almost be postcards for the town! The top one shows a "well dressing" which is a summer practice round here to make pictures with flower petals. The bottom photo is of the famous Pavilion, built in 1871 when Buxton was a thriving Victorian spa town, though the town itself has been visited for its thermal waters since the Romans discovered it in AD70 christened it Aquae Arnemetiae.
Wow. I remember going to the Buxton flower festival with the school when I was a child. Nice shots and very interesting history.

Like how you have got the depth of field in the first shot. Actually put a photo on today, not done much photograph in the last couple of weeks, maybe all this lovely sunshine will inspire me again.
