Wearyall Panorama

Something a bit different today, to wrap up the month.

I’ve posted a couple of panoramic shots before on CKPonderings, as a test of my iPhone’s photographic capability, and was impressed with the results.

So, on my one-a-day a week or so ago, I thought I would try it out again.

Somerset – the Summer Lands – is, in the main, a flat, low lying county, but at the eastern edge of the levels lies the Isle of Avalon. In old English, the Island of Apples was so named because of the orchards lining its hills and one hill, Glastonbury Tor, stood out as a beacon in the inland sea.

Wearyall Hill (or Wirral Hill) runs down from the Tor, and provides an ideal platform from which to view the landmark and the moors beside it.

From the bench I was sitting on, in the late sunshine of a spring day, the views were spectacular.
