An old shot, re-worked. A bit of a metaphor for my Flickr 'stream.
This shot heralds a change in the way I upload my photo's to Flickr. From now on all my shots will be full size and un-watermarked. Old shots will be replaced with full size originals, which will take some time given that I have over 2000 shots up so far.
They will still be all rights reserved, so if you see them out there on the interweb please do let me know.
I trust you guys to do the right thing, don't let me down.

There was a fire in the 1950s and much of the mansion burnt down, leaving this romantic shell.
We're particularly fond of this garden for very personal reasons. One of our daughters declared, when she was 10 years old, that she wanted to be a gardener. At that point she took over the running of our garden, taking most of the lawn away, putting in large borders which she filled with plants that she'd mainly propagated herself. When she finished her home schooling, she went to college for two years and, on the first year, she had to do day release somewhere locally in horticulture. We decided to start applying for places at the top, and what better place could there be than with the National Trust. Nymans only took on four students a year at that time, and Florence was one of the lucky ones who was chosen. So, one day a week, for a year, she got trained in this beautiful garden. It stood her in good stead, she learnt so much, and has really helped her in her career as a gardener.
