About Well, that hot chocolate certainly perked me up!!!

This is the entrance to one of my church members' back garden!! It was one of the homes opened up for charity this past Sunday afternoon. The garden goes back for what seems like miles and is a blaze of colour!!

I'm putting this in the 'photoart' section not because it's a composite, (which it isn't!!), but because I've used one of my trademark arty treatments to give it a softer, more painterly feel.

I hope you like it. If only you could all pop over and join me for a cup of tea and a scone beside my friend's gorgeous pool!!! Awesome!!

Best regards to all, Chris

Beautiful garden, Chris. I'm not quite sure what is "painterly," though. Whatever it is, it looks good to me. Thanks for your encouraging comments, by the way. Much appreciated when few others seem to be interested or attracted...
