First of all, we wanted to thank everyone so far who has posted comments on our new blog. It is such a positive thing and we are loving it and loving looking at all your blogs too. It feels great to be connected to other people around the world in this way and get snapshots into your lives and your cities.

This weekend we are going to shoot some new images for the blog and treat you to some of the Georgian loveliness of Bath together with some more unusual aspects of the city. Including the inside of some pubs!

This ancient doorway is in a wall at Dyrham Park which is our local National Trust property and where Emma has done some gardening work in the past! Dyrham has been used in many films and is utterly beautiful. I love the way this door has not been restored or painted or improved in any way. It just is.

  2. It is indeed a beautiful "portal". The stones, the colour of the door and its "gothic" quality...
    I am really looking forward to see more or Bath!

  6. Congratulations on your new Daily Photo site. My wife and I have visited Bath on time, for a too-brief time. I have added myself as a follower to your site so I can see you future posts more conveniently, and I look forward to seeing more of the charm of Bath.

  8. Bring it on! I'll never forget the first time I saw Bath. Couldn't believe my eyes, couldn't believe such a city existed in the modern world.

  9. This door has such patina . . . great catch. Welcome to the CDP world. I hope you both enjoy the community as much as I have. I joined shortly after my husband, "Clueless in Boston" set up and encouraged me to do the "Quincy Daily Photo" blog. I was new to digital photography and thought this commitment would help me improve my photography. That was 550 posts ago and I'm still getting great enjoyment from it.
