Boat rentals in Oxford

This peaceful scene existed in the 1800's when it was related to an all-time literary classic. This is the spot from which Christchurch College mathematics lecturer Charles Dodgson departed on a boat trip down the Thames, and passed the time by spinning a story starring his young friend Alice Liddell.
There is a substantial "Alice in Wonderland" walk in this area, and it is all beautiful.

I agree, these rowboats look so beautiful the way that they are arranged. I would love to go here someday and rent one of these to take down the river. I have only seen pictures, but it looks like such a beautiful area.http://www.bigmmarina.com/rentals/

the rowboats are begging to be photographed: great shapes, contrasts and reflections. i might have tried getting a shot with just the boats and as little else as possible.
