tourist trap

I took my Mum for a scan on her eye at the hospital in Stratford-upon-Avon this morning.

The church in this shot is part of my eldest son's old school, which was William Shakespeare's old school too. Of course at the time of going there, Angus didn't find this fact particularly remarkable, but I think he appreciates it more now.

This scene is usually full of cars and tourists, so it was quite eerie today seeing it with just two people walking along the road.

The hospital appointment went well. She was in and out in about ten minutes, so as soon as I had taken the photo I got a message saying she was ready to be picked up. Back next week to discuss the results. She has some macular degeneration that they are a bit concerned about, so hopefully that is no worse, but it is extremely likely that she will need laser treatment on a cataract she had done last year, which isn't uncommon I believe.
Oh, wow, Jan!
This is absolutely breath-taking. You have captured the history of this old street so perfectly. Only the pavement gives this timeless scene a modern look.
Well done and A FAV!

Lovely scene - is so odd seeing normally busy places like ghost towns - central London is something else. Hope your mum's eye prognosis turns out OK.

WOw even for me this looks empty. Gives a great focus on the buildings though.

Sort of sad but also beautiful- love the vertical lines. All my family who’ve had cataracts done have then been lasered - that seems to really fix it.

This shows the beauty of this historic town. Beautifully captured Jan. Also had a medical appointment with my mum but via zoom The consultant didn’t appear so sat for an hour watching an iPad screen! Mix up with days apparently so trying again tomorrow! At least we didn’t have car parking fees!!

Beautiful scene. The absence of cars and people makes the buildings stand out.
