Photographer's Note
Faversham is a market town and civil parish in the Swale district in the county of Kent, England, United Kingdom.
The town is 48 miles from London and 10 miles from Canterbury and lies next to the Swale, a strip of sea separating mainland Kent from the Isle of Sheppey in the Thames Estuary. It is close to the A2, which follows an ancient British trackway which was used by the Romans and the Anglo-Saxons, and known as Watling Street. The name Faversham derives from Latin via Old English origin, meaning "the metal-worker's village".
There has been a settlement at Faversham since pre-Roman times, next to the ancient sea port on Faversham Creek, and archaeological evidence has shown a Roman theatre was based in the town. It was inhabited by the Saxons and mentioned in the Domesday book as Favreshant. The town was favoured by King Stephen who established Faversham Abbey, which survived until the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1538.
Subsequently, the town became an important seaport and established itself as a centre for brewing, the Shepherd Neame Brewery, founded in 1698, remains a significant employer.

This series of images from Faversham were captured using a digital camera, probably my first one, a Cannon EOS 10D.

Hi Stephem
Your first digital camera was probably like mine - just 5 or 6 mega pixel. A good photo of the old entrance. Good colour and detail.
Cheers

Hello Stephen,
It is only through TE that I have realised the beauty of individual features of a house: door, windows, roofs.
This is a lovely example of a door worth photographing.
The white, neoclassical surrounds contrast very well with the black door, on which the brass features stand out.
Knowing your preferences, I'm sure the red bricks attracted, too.
Have a good day,
Bev :-)
Warm and sunny this morning, after a Sunday equally warm, though the forecast was for cloud, with occasional sunshine!

Hi Stephen,
The frame around the door is impressive. The point of view is showing the details of the door and of the frame. The light is enhancing the colors. Have a nice day.

Bonjour Stephen,
Si on voyait un 10 comme numιro de porte on pourrait croire voir la maison du premier ministre de la Grande Bretagne. Le mκme noir verni mais avec tout de mκme une petite diffιrence.
Amicalement

Hi Stephen
Ornate and very beautiful...
It's a super clean door and a good colour, the best is the contrast between the brick wall and the white frame. Excellent shot.
Best regards

Hello Steven
Well composed with good breathing space right around the image. The red brick background bears some resemblance to a texture screen. Good sharpness colour and saturation. Tfs.

Hello Stephen
The rich variation of doors and windows remains an inexhaustible and attractive source for a photographer who sometimes wants something different than a landscape.
Last week I photographed several of them more to the north in England.
Excellent work
Have a nice day, groet Rob
