for everyone

We visited Stourhead on, what turned out to be, a rainy day in May. It is a beautiful place, and what the photos cannot show is the wonderful fragrance that surrounded us throughout our walk.

Lovely, Viv. Thanks! Isn't it a wonderful year for rhododendrons! They've been glorious round here and didn't know there were any last year. Why is that I wonder.

nomadtraveller wrote on May 24

I meant to say that you do get some excellent close-ups of flowers. I am still grappling with new camera and haven't cracked the technique yet.

I really love these pics Viv, it looks like a stunning place. I love hoe England looks so green and lush at this time of year. And I can smell the smell, it's all around in the park here, it's packed full of rhodedendrons.

This is a beautiful shot Viv. Love the reflection :-))

mitchylr wrote on May 25

Lovely colour!!

mitchylr wrote on May 25

That's nice. Kinda reminds me of the gardens at Alton Towers.

mitchylr wrote on May 25

That's another lovely shot. Is it raining in this shot? I'm sure I can see ripples from raindrops.

"Got any crumbs?"

mitchylr wrote on May 25

Nice macro :-))

mitchylr wrote on May 25

"Someone has stolen my trident!!" LOL.

mitchylr wrote on May 25

Beautiful wide shot.

mitchylr wrote on May 25

What's that framing the shot?

mitchylr wrote on May 25

I like that shot. Love the perspective of the single buttercup in focus.

mitchylr wrote on May 25

I took an almost exact replica of this one yesterday!!

mitchylr wrote on May 25

Nice gate...not ostentatious at all. LOL.

mitchylr wrote on May 25

i was looking out from the grotto, which is where the 2 white statues you can see in other photos reside

Elizabeth and I both had our cameras with us, at this point we both got down to floor level, but without saying anything to each other, then both turned and said 'don't steal my photo idea', my mother was just laughing at us and wishing we would hurry up.
