Gorgeous day

It's the nicest day of the year so far, and the next scrap days look even better.

Radcliffe Square

Finally a sunny day! It's not especially warm, but with the sun it's very pleasant out. Certainly much nicer than the relentless rain. And really just a teaser for the weekend, which will be very nice.

Balliol College

The gardens at Balliol are quite lovely, and today was pretty nice. It was actually dry, for example, and the sun was out for a bit.

Unending Rain

It's been raining a lot lately, and the river has risen dramatically.

Waiting for the Ball

The weather has held out admirably for the Exeter College ball. Hopefully that continues!

Carnival

They're setting up for tomorrow's ball at Exeter, whose theme is Carnivale. Hopefully it doesn't rain, though it's been doing it most of the past three days.

Sheldonian

It was raining earlier and it's going to rain more later, but right now it's sunny and warm, though also much cloudier than this photo of the Sheldonian Theatre would have you believe.

Christ church

It was a sunny but chilly and windy day today. Still nice enough for a walk around Christ Church meadow

Rainy

Rainy day at Stansted Airport. The Mozart that ryanair is playing is a nice touch.

Sunset at Stonehenge

Yesterday continued the long streak of lovely days with another warm and sunny day for our trip down to the isle of wight. This photo was taken as we stopped by Stonehenge on our way home.

Lovely day at Magdalen

It's another lovely day here, and we spent it visiting various colleges and enjoying the sun.

Nice day

London is gorgeous today!

Foggy again

Yesterday was indeed delightful after the fog burned off, and today will be as well. But the fog sure does make for a pretty start.

Friday, March 23, 2012

Foggy

It's been very springy this week, though it's foggy this morning. Later the sun will come out and it's going to be lovely

Churchill

This is Winston Churchill's grave, in a small cemetery outside a small church north of Oxford. It was rainy yesterday, as you can see, though today is sunny, warm, and beautiful.

Foggy yesterday

This is from yesterday, when it was quite foggy. Sadly, I missed the foggiest part of the morning, but I still managed a nice shot.

Spring like

Though today started out cool and overcast, the sun has largely broken through and made it quite a nice day. This shot of the cemetery at St Mary Magdalen church in central Oxford (right outside the grocery store) showed a beautiful spring scene mixed with tombstones.

Bodleian library

It's another beautiful day here today, with sun and warm temperatures. So confusing!

Saturday, March 10, 2012

Beautiful

Today was a beautiful day, and the best we've seen in quite some time. Today was around 60 degrees, and after the  clouds burned off it was quite sunny.

Sunday, March 4, 2012

Lovely day yesterday

After a bit of early morning rain, yesterday turned out to be gorgeous. It was warm and sunny and everyone was outside.

Today, on the other hand, it its raining quite hard and will continue to do so for the rest of the day.

Foggy Keble

This morning, much like yesterday morning, is very foggy. Let's hope that it turns out as nicely as yesterday did, since it was gorgeous once the fog burned off.

Sunday, February 26, 2012

Spring

Today was a beautiful day where jackets were barely needed and the sun was out and the flowers were blooming

Saturday, February 25, 2012

Very Nice

This is a picture of Keble College from yesterday, when it was nicer than it's been in months. Warm(ish) and sunny.

Tuesday, February 21, 2012

Clear

Today was quite a pleasant day, as this photo of the Exeter College chapel indicates. Winter seems to have ended as suddenly as it began, with temperatures in the mid to upper fifties (F) are expected later this week.

Kings College, Cambridge

We took a day trip to Cambridge today on a very cold day. They had more snow here than in Oxford, leaving the quads and lawns with a nice coating of snow.

This morning when I got up the temperature was -11C, which is only 5 degrees centigrade away from the all time coldest temperature in Oxford!

Friday, February 10, 2012

Snowy Again!

Surprisingly, we've had another snowy day! I wasn't expecting another, and certainly not so soon after the last. This one is better, too ,because it didn't start raining at the end.

Sunday, February 5, 2012

Snow!

It finally snowed here, though it turned to rain a bit by the end. But it's still quite pretty today as indicated by this snowy shot of Christ Church Meadow.

Oxford University Press

This is the quad at Oxford university press, though I don't know why they have one. This was yesterday, a nice day, though the weather has been very variable lately

Sunday, January 22, 2012

Magdalen College

It was pretty nice yesterday, a good day to walk around the expansive grounds of Magdalen College

Friday, January 20, 2012

Sheldonian Theatre

The weather today was middling in most every way I can think of. Neither warm our cold, neither dry nor rainy.

Thursday, January 19, 2012

Keble College

A nice day today, with temperatures still warm, but without the clouds and rain. Here's a shot of Keble College in the sunlight.

Drizzly dusk

Today was much warmer than yesterday, but as is often the case here, it was accompanied by drizzle and moisture. Though it never really rained, the ground has been wet all day.

This is a photo of the Radcliffe Camera at dusk.

Christ Church College

The main gate of Christ church college and Tom Tower as seen at dusk yesterday. It continues to be cold, with quite a lot of frost this morning and a level three cold alert.

Saint Johns College

It's been quite cold lately, with temperatures below freezing. Today was a lovely and crisp and clear day. This is one of the quads at St Johns college.
