366 Photos - 133/366 - A day in May

[byslantedlight]

I actually finished my (relatively interesting) Job 1 pages early today, and so I nipped out to do a few chores. Amongst other things I had to return something to the shop at Stourhead, and while I was there, and while it was warm and balmy and I was wearing a summer dress because it was that kind of weather, I thought I'd actually visit, and go for a walk through the gardens. I did rather kick myself that I'd forgotten to bring my proper camera, but I made do with my phone... *g*










Anyone else eyeing up the tumbleweed in lj just now, or is it just me...? You know, I think there might have to be lads tomorrow. Please! *g*

Fantastic photos! I like the Monet lily pads and the pink carpet :), and the slight blurriness of the phone camera here and there gives your photos a really atmospheric look. I think these are great!

Thanks! I was kicking myself for forgetting to chuck my proper camera in my bag (which is usually automatic), but my phone does the job in an emergency - blur and all! The pink carpet was lovely - and I liked the gnarled and twisted tree trunk emerging from it, too. And then the lily pads were accompanied by curled-up ferns! I may need to go for walks there more often, rather than volunteering there... *g*
