Oxford, Oxfordshire by Alixe Lay

Christ Church, Spitalfelds. The most haunting and hulking of Hawksmoor’s churches, all leering proportions and surging stone. Built as part of the plan to restore London’s churches after the Fire, as well as to exert a towering Anglican influence in a mostly Protestant quarter.

Taken during a grey month in 2007, showing how a digital camera more than a decade older than my phone still captured better pictures.
