Tower of St Mary the Great Church - PHOTOGRAPHER COMMENT
This is a composite panorama that was taken by walking round the edge of the tower of St Mary the Great church and taking pictures at various points. The turrets on each corner of the tower obscure some of the view over Cambridge. The way in which this panoramic image was created means the that the stitching is not perfect, but it provided the best overall impression of the skyline possible.
