As it’s York Minster, note the Tudor roses adorning her garments!

For the Feast of St. Celicia, 22nd November.

A representation of the patron saint of music plays the mediaeval portative organ: one hand operating a keyboard; the other, the bellows.

Someone pauses at a corner on York's city walls to photograph York Minster dramatically illuminated by a low sun in front of dark clouds.

It's been astronomical autumn for over an hour now, guess I should accept it : /

Here's Autumn from the Four Seasons mosaic, dating from c. AD 250 and found in Toft Green, York, in 1853.

A (rather damp) fox for Friday. Despite my best efforts, I’m afraid it spotted me, but wasn’t disturbed ☺️

An evening walk on York’s medieval city walls.

The earthworks on which it is built are older, and this stretch probably follows the western perimeter of the Roman colonia - the civilian area of the city south of the River Ouse, with the military fortress on the other side.

Golden sunlight catches castellations on York’s city walls and lime trees beyond. An interval tower sits in the near distance.

A golden Grand. York’s five-star hotel and spa, in the prestigious former headquarters of the North Eastern Railway Company, basks in evening sunlight.

A carved stone face set into a stone wall topped with plants sticks out its tongue at the viewer. A second castellated wall sits above and behind.

The Perspex (I assume) across the slits adds its own haze and gives the image a particular feel.

A pastel sky, sunset in July. Over the River Ouse, in #York.

The sun sets at the end of a peach- and blue-toned sky with pink-edged cotton wool clouds over a golden river. Boats are moored on the right. The silhouette of bridge is in the distance.

York Proms, but from the ‘cheap seats’.
Red fireworks across a river. People sit in the foreground listening to live classical music.

Passed someone near the Minster saying “by candlelight” and from now on it’ll be Carol’s Bike Handle Light” every Christmas, so far as I’m concerned.
