St. Marys church Arnold, Nottingham

I've photographed Our local parish church several times on my 365.

This is the first time with my Samyang 12mm

Beautiful lead in lines with the lavender and rose bordered path and some lovely late afternoon sun side lighting.

I was worried that I had some converging vertical on the tower, but when I looked on google maps, the church isn't square onto the path, so I think the tower is displayed in the correct perspective.

The big conifer on the right of the path sort of spoils the perfect view. It's only a conifer, perhaos the church council should consider chopping it down !

Someone is a good gardener and I expect its all voluntary! The walk to the church door would be as beautiful as inside perhaps!

Lovely leading lines of lavender! The conifer adds character - wonder how many years it's taken to grow that size.

[Richard Brown]

Nice shot I like how you've biased the leading line to the lavender rather than central to the path :) fav

[Pat Knowles]

Looking as tidy & beautiful as it was on Kirsty's wedding day! Will Clare be traveling the same route or has she chosen different?

[Graham Harcombe]

I think that is a Yew tree (which is a conifer of course), so popular in church yards. Popular belief is that Yew trees were planted in the church yards to keep sheep and cattle out owing to their poisonous leaves and bark.

However, the view is lovely, using the lavender beds as leading lines.

Such a neat and tidy approach to a lovely old church - great pov and scene PHIL --fav

[Dione Giorgio]

The rows of flowers make a wonderful edge to this old footpath. The church is very beautiful but the flowers steal the show. Great capture and pov.

Classic, and love the lavender hedge. Fav.

This must be the most beautiful approach to a church I have seen.

Lovely lines of lavender and roses and I think they can be forgiven the conifer!
