Another view of this pub where Frank Whittle, and Churchill once stayed during the war, with the lovely warm pink hues from the evening sky.

This is a place I would love to visit.

I love the lights on the building.  and the hanging baskets for decorations.

Good picture and well taken!

Whittle was the man who designed the first functional jet engine, wasn't he?  

I really like your photo.  The colors are exceptional; sometimes the deep yellow of incandescent lighting has a good effect on the natural light around it.   This is one of those time.

Very nice.  The only flaw I see is that the perspective slightly tilts the end of the building.   See if the straightened version looks better:

And I see you mentioned Whittle's accomplishment in another post.

Barbarian you are much more technical than I am.  I just knew that I liked the lighting, and baskets..  You told me why.

On both occasions your right straightening does look better plus Whittle was the first mant to build a functioning jet engine.

There speaks the professional, Barbarian.  I never noticed the slight slant until you mentioned and corrected it!  Like Judy, I was enchanted by the lights and flowers.   ;)
