after london we drove west to salisbury for the next four days. the first day we spent time in the quaint historic town of salisbury and mainly inside the beautiful salisbury cathedral (shown in the first eleven photographs above) which was surprisingly probably my favorite cathedral off all that we saw. i especially fell in love with all the beautiful embroidered cushions placed so carefully on all the seats, benches and chairs. the second day we took a day trip and drove to the city of bath … (below)

the city of bath was my all-time favorite city, the architecture was amazingly beautiful. it felt like we were wandering up and down the streets of some sort of ancient italian city or what i imagine that might feel like anyway. rows and rows of gorgeous stone buildings all in the same color but with various colored doors … it was fabulous. while in bath, we saw the roman baths, toured the abbey church of saint peter or bath abbey, and spent time eating and walking up and down the streets admiring all of the ancient homes and so forth, lining every street and every alleyway. we hope to go back eventually and spend more than just a day really exploring the time-honered city of bath.

    These images of the cathedral really moved me sarah. I used to live 5 miles away from Bath, and have to agree, its such a rich and beautiful city!

    Yay! Bath is my hometown! Glad you loved it – your photos make it look so gorgeous. I've lived 20 minutes from Bath all my life but have only been into the Roman Baths once and the Abbey twice! Did you manage to see the Crescent?

      Thank you Jrae! The camera I use is a Nikon D3200 and I most commonly use a AF-S Nikkor 50mm 1:1.4 lens and a AF-S Nikkor 35mm 1:1.8 lens. For film editing I mostly use Adobe Lightroom 4 and will sometimes use Adobe Photoshop CS5 for finishing details. Hope this helps and thanks again!!

      xoxo, Sara

    I'm glad that you're having a wonderful trip! I have to say that visiting cathedrals is one of my favorite parts of traveling– I find them to be so restorative and peaceful. A really wonderful place to think! Loving the photos of the candles.

    Xo, Hannah

    I´ve been to the UK a few months back and l have pictures of more or less the same places sitting on my computer…:-) Sometimes, we even chose the same motives and it´s funny to see how they turned out on your take (better than mine, I´d say) 🙂

    I´ve been to the UK a few months back and I have pictures of pretty much the same places sitting on my computer 🙂
    Sometimes, especially in the Cathedral of Salisbury, we chose the same picture motives and it´s funny to see how they turned out differently on your take 🙂
    Hope you had a great time!
