The Hog's Back is a ridge that is part of the North Downs; The Surrey Hills Area Of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a Site Of Special Scientific Interest.
The Hog's Back rises to an elevation of 505 feet above the garrison town of Aldershot and runs between the medieval market towns of Farnham and Guildford.
It gets its name from its prominent outline that resembles, from a distance and with a good imagination, a hog's back. A written description of the hill in 1035 called it "Guildown", meaning "gold hill". This may be due to either the yellow wild flowers or the sandy soil.
Since pre-history, the road along the crest of the Hog’s Back has provided travellers with a clear line of sight, hundreds of feet above the wooded valley.
The road is part of the ancient ridgeways that run from Wiltshire in the west, to the Kent coast in the east; and from Winchester (the old capital of Wessex) in the south-west, to London to the north-east.
Jane Austen, a Hampshire native, would travel to London along the Hog's Back and once wrote, ”Upon the whole it was an excellent journey and very thoroughly enjoyed by me; the weather was delightful the greatest part of the day. Henry found it too warm and talked of its being close sometimes, but to my capacity it was perfection. I never saw the country from the Hogsback so advantageously."
The views south from the ridge, towards the Devil's Punchbowl, are unspoilt and will have changed little in thousands of years.
To the northeast, the skyscrapers of London, 35 miles away, can be seen (here, in wide angle, only as tiny white specks on the horizon). This was shot in the late evening from the road-side (the ancient route is now the modern A31 dual-carriageway) a few miles south-east of Aldershot, looking towards London.

Nothing too special.
A shot of the paint filled globe from an angle showing the hole of impact. These shots really show how shallow the depth of field is. I tried to get the trailing edge in focus and the exit area is soft.
Cheers.
Whenever I go downtown with my camera, I usually find myself looking (and shooting) up, but today, I decided to look down instead and found all kinds of fun things to photograph.
