We met in Winchester U3A's photography group, where Mary is treasurer. She has a passion for wildlife photography and recently gave a presentation to the group, illustrated with her own photos.
During the year, in addition to the group outings, the two of us have organised ourselves a few little photo-shoots, yesterday, the most recent, being to Mottisfont Abbey to see their Christmas decorations.
It was a mild winter day with mellow sunshine and we also visited the different parts of the gardens and the grounds, and had a walk by the River Test.
A shame Santa did not paint his sleigh purple..........
Lovely happy portrait with great perspective and depth of field, you even managed to include that purple bauble and Santa's sledge, I see Mary's is also into purple as well Hazel:)
HaHa! Pure coincidence - but I did notice it and include it in the frame!
