“The Circus” — A sectoin of the historic Circus, Bath, England.
Perhaps you are thinking, “If that is a photo of a circus, where are the clowns?” It isn’t that kind of circus. This “circus” is a marvelous example of Georgian architecture in Bath, England. At a high point in the city a circle of fancy apartments wrap around a small, central park, broken only few narrow entrances to the inner area. It is hard (panorama photographs anyone?) to make a photograph of the entire structure without taking to the air, so I decided to focus on a small section.
“Bath Abbey” — The interior of Bath Abbey, showing side columns.
It seems that I left some of my photographs from our spring 2026 visit to Scotland, Ireland, and England behind. That happens from time to time, usually when I get distracted by some other photographic project. But I’ve plunged back into the rather large collection of raw files from that trip, and I’m working on them once again. This photograph comes from our visit to Bath, England following our weeklong walk in the Cotswolds.
“Spring Leaves” — Spring leaves, Botanical Gardens at Royal Victoria Park, Bath.
More than once I have mentioned that when we travel we like to just head off in interesting directions and wander, not sure of what we’ll see. It isn’t that we don’t view the main, iconic sites of the cities we visit — we don’t just limit ourselves to those places. Sometimes the wandering is very productive. We see places and sometimes people we’d miss in the tourist areas, and we can often find spots that are less crowded and hectic. I made this photograph in one of those places.
