Last October I took this photo in Exeter UK during our ‘wall walk’ — a self-guided journey along the ancient Roman/medieval wall that once ringed the town, but which now meaders through the central city area.

I love the composition of this image, which is almost exactly in thirds. It’s a juxtaposition of crisp, living, vibrant green grass; ancient stone wall that is the work of many ages and many hands; contemporary apartment building.
There is so much juxtaposition of old and new in the UK; it’s almost everywhere you look. It’s one of the reasons I love it so much. The uncountable layers of history — and the tangible remnants of those long-ago times — give the place so much texture and grace.
When I saw this week’s Weekly Photo Challenge topic was JUXTAPOSITION I thought immediately of this image and knew I had to share it.
