Durham Cathedral, Durham - a photo on Flickriver

            Another new viewpoint discovered for the magnificent Norman cathedral at Durham.
I'd found it on an OS map, although I couldn't really tell from the map exactly how the view would look. It seemed promising, but there was only one way to find out.
The path that I set out along goes through some woods and there were so many Autumn leaves on the ground that I didn't realise I had left the path.
I ended up getting a little lost and there were so many trees that I couldn't see the cathedral!
To cut a long story short, I did eventually find a great vantage point, but the light was really poor – very flat and grey.
I must have hung around for around an hour, hoping it might improve and the sun bursting through just before it set.
It did brighten up a little, but fell short of what I was hoping for. However, now that I know how to get here, I'll definitely be back!
