Christchurch: western slope of Blackwater Hill

Image: © Chris Downer Taken: 31 Jul 2009

Looking from the top of Blackwater Hill down the thickly wooded western slope. It is a peaceful setting, but peaceful is not really the word, since the main A338 runs close by. It is not properly visible but there is a constant raw of traffic – and quick flashes of colour can be seen roughly centre of the picture, with each vehicle that passes by.
