About Things are a little tough here at the moment so we escaped to one of our favourite places for a couple of hours, yesterday afternoon. It was idyllic! The rhododendrons and honeysuckle azaleas were blooming and the weather was perfect!

This shot was converetd from RAW and I've loaded it up without my usual frame so that you can see a little more of the detail instead of a load of white space. The full size, hi-res version is really something to see!!

Best regards to all,

Chris

Impressive bit of landscaping there - Capability Brown was it?

Nice colour saturation considering how bright it was - avoided the old washed out looks well.#

Really a stunning scene, Chris. Everything cooperated with you that day. The trees, the water, the shrubs, and the sky are brilliant. Great shot.

Well this isn't too shabby to look at as well....;-D!!! Wonderful landscape!!! Great view, colors, reflection and composition.... well captured!!! You must have been standing on 'higher ground' or on a bridge, because I don't suppose you were lugging a ladder around to get such a great angle.... ;-D!!!!!

Ahhh... this is stunningly beautiful Chris... And such a beautiful place it is that you've captured... I used to go there myself when I used to live in Hampshire pre 2k... Fabulous mage Chris (and if you want it any bigger to print I can do that for you with Genuine Fractals - I invested a week or two back and it can make an image 400% bigger with virtually no loss in quality...). Sorry to hear things are tough... I hope they get better soon...

I'll bet the full size is wonderful. This looks loke such a peaceful place. It is easy to see why you enjoy being there. After your recent horendous experience, you need a bit of time for you to relax and clear your head.
Take good care. Mary
