Oxford Spires

Spires from South Parks looking towards centre of town.

Three Spires peaking through mist.

The dreaming spires of Oxford on a misty morning.

Picture taken autumn from the River Thames bank
The Dreaming Spires of Oxford, as the great Romantic poet Matthew Arnold said
And that sweet city with her dreaming spires,

Lovely! I’m reading THE SEPTEMBER SOCIETY, by Charles Finch which takes place in London and Oxford in the 1800′s. Your photos make his descriptions of Oxford University even more enchanting. Thank you.
