This is slightly late (though it was taken on Friday!). I had to be in Salisbury today for a mate's birthday party, so I thought I'd kill some time with my camera before we all had to meet up. I remembered that I'd never actually spent any time in the grounds of the Cathedral; it's an incredibly beautiful building so I figured it wouldn't be too difficult. I spent about an hour wandering round the building, getting frustrated that I couldn't get the perspective right and it was too late in the day so the side I wanted to shoot was in front of the sun. It was a disaster. Most of the shots I ended up with put the tower in totally the wrong perspective and made it look tiny, so about 75% of them were binned straight away!<!--more-->

It really came down to 2. The one I ended up posting (the favourite for everyone but me!) and my favourite. The black and white conversion of the tower posted below. I love the textures and I'm really proud of the conversion on this, but my wonderful girlfriend and a couple of others I showed them both to preferred the favourite so I had to post it. However, because I love it so much, I'm posting my favourite too. I make the rules! Ha!

This whole thing is beginning to become quite stressful. I can tell that I'm going to find it difficult to find inspiration every day. I guess that's why they're called challenges!
